36 Then the people of the land took Jehoahaz, the son of Josiah, and made him king in his father’s place in Jerusalem.
2 Jehoahaz was twenty-three years old when he began to reign. And he reigned for three months in Jerusalem.
3 And the king of Egypt took him away at Jerusalem and imposed a tribute on the land of one hundred talents of silver and one talent of gold.
4 And the king of Egypt made Eliakim, his brother, king over Judah and Jerusalem and changed his name to Jehoiakim. And Necho took Jehoahaz, his brother, and carried him to Egypt.
5 Jehoiakim was twenty-five years old when he began to reign. And he reigned for eleven years in Jerusalem and did evil in the sight of the LORD his God.
6 Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babel, came up against him and bound him with chains to carry him to Babel.
7 Nebuchadnezzar also carried of the vessels of the House of the LORD to Babel and put them in his temple at Babel.
8 Concerning the rest of the acts of Jehoiakim and his abominations which he did, and that which was found against him, behold, they are written in the Book of the Kings of Israel and Judah. And Jehoiachin, his son, reigned in his place.
9 Jehoiachin was eight years old when he began to reign. And he reigned for three months and ten days in Jerusalem and did evil in the sight of the LORD.
10 And when the year was out, King Nebuchadnezzar sent and brought him to Babel, with the precious vessels of the House of the LORD. And he made Zedekiah, his brother, king over Judah and Jerusalem.
11 Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he began to reign and reigned for eleven years in Jerusalem.
12 And he did evil in the sight of the LORD his God and did not humble himself before Jeremiah the Prophet at the Commandment of the LORD.
13 But he also rebelled against Nebuchadnezzar, who had caused him to swear by God. And he hardened his neck and made his heart obstinate, so that he might not return to the LORD God of Israel.
14 Also, all the chief of the priests and of the people trespassed very much, according to all the abominations of the heathen, and polluted the houses of the LORD which He had sanctified in Jerusalem.
15 Therefore, the LORD God of their fathers sent to them by his messengers, rising early and sending. For He had compassion on His people, and on His habitation.
16 But they mocked the messengers of God and despised His Words and misused His Prophets, until the wrath of the LORD arose against His people, and until there was no remedy.
17 For He brought the king of the Chaldeans upon them, who killed their young men with the sword in the House of their Sanctuary, and spared neither young man nor virgin, ancient nor aged. God gave all into his hand.
18 And all the vessels of the House of God, great and small, and the treasures of the House of the LORD, and the treasures of the king, and of his princes, all these he carried to Babel.
19 And they burnt the House of God, and broke down the wall of Jerusalem, and burnt all its palaces with fire, and destroyed all its precious vessels.
20 And those who were left by the sword, he carried away to Babel. And they were servants to him, and to his sons, until the kingdom of the Persians ruled,
21 to fulfill the Word of the LORD by the mouth of Jeremiah, until the land had her fill of her Sabbaths. For all the days that she lay desolate, she kept Sabbath, to fulfill seventy years.
22 But in the first year of Cyrus, king of Persia (when the Word of the LORD, spoken by the mouth of Jeremiah, was finished) the LORD stirred up the spirit of Cyrus, king of Persia. And he made a proclamation through all his kingdom, and also by writing, saying,
23 “Thus says Cyrus, king of Persia, ‘The LORD God of Heaven has given me all the kingdoms of the Earth and has Commanded me to build Him a House in Jerusalem, which is in Judah. Whoever is among you of all His people with whom the LORD his God is, let him go up!’”
22 And he showed me a pure river of water of life - clear as crystal - proceeding out of the throne of God, and of the Lamb.
2 In the midst of the street of it - and on either side of the river - was the Tree of Life, which bore twelve kinds of fruits and gave fruit every month. And the leaves of the tree served to heal the nations.
3 And there shall no longer be any curse. But the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it, and His servants shall serve Him.

5 And there shall be no night there. And they need no lamp, nor light of the Sun. For the Lord God gives them Light. And they shall reign forevermore.

10 And he said to me, “Do not seal the Words of the Prophecy of this Book. For the time is at hand.

21 After these things, Jesus revealed Himself again to His disciples at the sea of Tiberias. And in this way, He revealed Himself:
2 Simon Peter and Thomas, who is called Didymus, and Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, and the sons of Zebedee, and two of His other disciples, were together.
3 Simon Peter said to them, “I’m going fishing.” They said to him, “We will go with you, also.” They went their way and immediately entered into a ship. And that night they caught nothing.
4 But when the morning had now come, Jesus stood on the shore. Nevertheless, the disciples did not know that it was Jesus.
5 Then Jesus said to them, “Sirs, do you have any food!?” They answered Him, “No!”
6 Then He said to them, “Cast out the net on the right side of the ship, and you shall find.” So, they cast out and were not able to draw it in at all, because of the multitude of fish.
7 Therefore, the disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, “It is the Lord!” When Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he threw on his coat (for he was naked) and cast himself into the sea.
8 But the other disciples came by ship, (for they were not far from land, only about two hundred cubits) and they drew in the net with the fish.
9 Then, as soon as they had come to land, they saw hot coals with fish laid thereon, and bread.
10 Jesus said to them, “Bring some of the fish which you have caught now!”
11 Simon Peter stepped forth and drew in the net to land, full of great fish (a hundred and fifty-three). And even though there were so many, the net was not broken.
12 Jesus said to them, “Come and have breakfast!” And none of the disciples dared ask Him, ‘Who are You?’, knowing that He was the Lord.
13 Jesus then came and took bread and gave it to them, and fish also.
14 This is now the third time that Jesus revealed Himself to His disciples after He was risen again from the dead.
15 So when they had eaten breakfast, Jesus said to Simon Peter, “Simon, son of Jonah, do you love Me more than these?” He said to him, “Yes, Lord, you know that I love You.” He said to him, “Feed My lambs.”
16 He said to him again the second time, “Simon, son of Jonah, do you love Me?” He said to him, “Yes, Lord, you know that I love You.” He said to him, “Feed My sheep.”
17 He said to him a third time, “Simon, son of Jonah, do you love Me?” Peter was sorry because He said to him a third time, ‘Do you love Me?’, and said to Him, “Lord, you know all things. You know that I love You.” Jesus said to him, “Feed My sheep.”
18 “Truly, truly I say to you, when you were young, you dressed yourself and walked where you would. But when you shall be old, you shall stretch forth your hands and another shall dress you and lead you where do not wish.”
19 And this He spoke to signify by what death He would glorify God. And when He had said this, He said to him, “Follow Me.”
20 Then Peter turned around and saw the disciple whom Jesus loved, following (who had also leaned on His breast at supper, and had said, ‘Lord, which is he who betrays You?’)
21 Therefore, when Peter saw him he said to Jesus, “Lord, what of this man?”
22 Jesus said to him, “If I wish him to remain until I come, what is that to you? You follow Me.”
23 Then the word went out among the brothers that this disciple would not die. Yet, Jesus did not say to him, ‘He shall not die’, but ‘if I wish him to remain until I come, what is it to you?’
24 This is that disciple who testifies of these things and wrote these things. And we know that his testimony is true.
25 Now, there are also many other things which Jesus did; which, if every one should be written, I suppose the world could not contain the books that would be written. Amen.
