8 And the Lord spoke unto Moses, “Go unto Pharaoh and say unto him, ‘Thus saith the Lord: Let My people go, that they may serve Me.
2 And if thou refuse to let them go, behold, I will smite all thy borders with frogs.
3 And the river shall bring forth frogs abundantly, which shall go up and come into thine house, and into thy bedchamber and upon thy bed, and into the house of thy servants and upon thy people, and into thine ovens and into thy kneading troughs.
4 And the frogs shall come up both on thee and upon thy people and upon all thy servants.’”
5 And the Lord spoke unto Moses, “Say unto Aaron, ‘Stretch forth thine hand with thy rod over the streams, over the rivers and over the ponds, and cause frogs to come up upon the land of Egypt.’”
6 And Aaron stretched out his hand over the waters of Egypt, and the frogs came up and covered the land of Egypt.
7 And the magicians did so with their enchantments, and brought up frogs upon the land of Egypt.
8 Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron and said, “Entreat the Lord, that he may take away the frogs from me and from my people; and I will let the people go, that they may do sacrifice unto the Lord.”
9 And Moses said unto Pharaoh, “Glory over me: When shall I entreat for thee and for thy servants and for thy people to destroy the frogs from thee and thy houses, that they may remain in the river only?”
10 And he said, “Tomorrow.” And Moses said, “Be it according to thy word, that thou mayest know that there is none like unto the Lord our God.
11 And the frogs shall depart from thee, and from thy houses and from thy servants and from thy people. They shall remain in the river only.”
12 And Moses and Aaron went out from Pharaoh; and Moses cried unto the Lord because of the frogs which He had brought against Pharaoh.
13 And the Lord did according to the word of Moses; and the frogs died out of the houses, out of the villages, and out of the fields.
14 And they gathered them together upon heaps, and the land stank.
15 But when Pharaoh saw that there was respite, he hardened his heart and hearkened not unto them, as the Lord had said.
16 And the Lord said unto Moses, “Say unto Aaron, ‘Stretch out thy rod and smite the dust of the land, that it may become lice throughout all the land of Egypt.’”
17 And they did so; for Aaron stretched out his hand with his rod and smote the dust of the earth, and it became lice on man and on beast. All the dust of the land became lice throughout all the land of Egypt.
18 And the magicians so did with their enchantments to bring forth lice, but they could not; so there were lice upon man and upon beast.
19 Then the magicians said unto Pharaoh, “This is the finger of God.” And Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he hearkened not unto them, as the Lord had said.
20 And the Lord said unto Moses, “Rise up early in the morning and stand before Pharaoh. Lo, he cometh forth to the water, and say unto him, ‘Thus saith the Lord: Let My people go, that they may serve Me.
21 Else, if thou wilt not let My people go, behold, I will send swarms of flies upon thee, and upon thy servants and upon thy people and into thy houses; and the houses of the Egyptians shall be full of swarms of flies, and also the ground whereon they are.
22 And I will sever in that day the land of Goshen in which My people dwell, that no swarms of flies shall be there, to the end thou mayest know that I am the Lord in the midst of the earth.
23 And I will put a division between My people and thy people. Tomorrow shall this sign be.’”
24 And the Lord did so; and there came a grievous swarm of flies into the house of Pharaoh, and into his servants’ houses and into all the land of Egypt. The land was corrupted by reason of the swarm of flies.
25 And Pharaoh called for Moses and for Aaron and said, “Go ye, sacrifice to your God in the land.”
26 And Moses said, “It is not meet so to do; for we shall sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians to the Lord our God. Lo, shall we sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians before their eyes, and will they not stone us?
27 We will go three days’ journey into the wilderness and sacrifice to the Lord our God, as He shall command us.”
28 And Pharaoh said, “I will let you go, that ye may sacrifice to the Lord your God in the wilderness; only ye shall not go very far away. Entreat for me.”
29 And Moses said, “Behold, I go out from thee, and I will entreat the Lord that the swarms of flies may depart from Pharaoh, from his servants and from his people tomorrow; but let not Pharaoh deal deceitfully any more in not letting the people go to sacrifice to the Lord.”
30 And Moses went out from Pharaoh and entreated the Lord.
31 And the Lord did according to the word of Moses, and He removed the swarms of flies from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people; there remained not one.
32 And Pharaoh hardened his heart at this time also, neither would he let the people go.
11 And it came to pass that as He was praying in a certain place, when He ceased, one of His disciples said unto Him, “Lord, teach us to pray as John also taught his disciples.”
2 And He said unto them, “When ye pray, say: Our Father who art in Heaven, hallowed be Thy name. Thy Kingdom come. Thy will be done, as in Heaven, so on earth.
3 Give us day by day our daily bread.
4 And forgive us our sins, for we also forgive every one that is indebted to us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.”
5 And He said unto them, “Which of you shall have a friend and shall go unto him at midnight and say unto him, ‘Friend, lend me three loaves,
6 for a friend of mine in his journey is come to me, and I have nothing to set before him’;
7 and he from within shall answer and say, ‘Trouble me not; the door is now shut and my children are with me in bed, and I cannot rise and give to thee’?
8 I say unto you, though he will not rise and give to him because he is his friend, yet because of his importunity he will rise and give him as many as he needeth.
9 And I say unto you: ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you.
10 For every one that asketh receiveth, and he that seeketh findeth, and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
11 “If a son shall ask bread of any of you that is a father, will he give him a stone? Or if he ask a fish, will he for a fish give him a serpent?
12 Or if he shall ask for an egg, will he offer him a scorpion?
13 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your heavenly Father give the holy Spirit to them that ask Him?”
14 And He was casting out a devil, and it was dumb. And it came to pass when the devil had gone out, the dumb one spoke; and the people wondered.
15 But some of them said, “He casteth out devils through Beelzebub, the chief of the devils.”
16 And others, testing Him, sought from Him a sign from Heaven.
17 But He, knowing their thoughts, said unto them, “Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and a house divided against a house falleth.
18 If Satan also be divided against himself, how shall his kingdom stand — because ye say that I cast out devils through Beelzebub?
19 And if I by Beelzebub cast out devils, by whom do your sons cast them out? Therefore shall they be your judges.
20 But if I with the finger of God cast out devils, doubt not the Kingdom of God is come upon you.
21 When a strong man armed keepeth his palace, his goods are in peace.
22 But when one stronger than he shall come upon him and overcome him, he taketh from him all his armor wherein he trusted, and divideth his spoils.
23 He that is not with Me, is against Me; and he that gathereth not with Me, scattereth.
24 “When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places seeking rest; and finding none, he saith, ‘I will return unto my house whence I came out.’
25 And when he cometh, he findeth it swept and garnished.
26 Then he goeth and taketh to him seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter in and dwell there; and the last state of that man is worse than the first.”
27 And it came to pass, as He spoke these things, a certain woman of the company lifted up her voice and said unto Him, “Blessed is the womb that bore Thee and the breasts which Thou hast sucked.”
28 But He said, “Yea rather, blessed are they that hear the Word of God and keep it.”
29 And when the people were gathered thick together, He began to say, “This is an evil generation. They seek a sign, and there shall no sign be given it, but the sign of Jonah the prophet.
30 For as Jonah was a sign unto the Ninevites, so shall also the Son of Man be to this generation.
31 The queen of the south shall rise up in the Judgment with the men of this generation and condemn them, for she came from the utmost parts of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and behold, a greater than Solomon is here.
32 The men of Nineveh shall rise up in the Judgment with this generation and shall condemn it, for they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and behold, a greater than Jonah is here.
33 “No man, when he hath lighted a candle, putteth it in a secret place, neither under a bushel, but on a candlestick, that they that come in may see the light.
34 The light of the body is the eye. Therefore, when thine eye is single, thy whole body also is full of light. But when thine eye is evil, thy body also is full of darkness.
35 Take heed therefore that the light which is in thee be not darkness.
36 If thy whole body therefore be full of light, having no part dark, the whole shall be full of light, as when the bright shining of a candle doth give thee light.”
37 And as He spoke, a certain Pharisee besought Him to dine with him. And He went in and sat down to meat.
38 And when the Pharisee saw it, he marveled that He had not first washed before dinner.
39 And the Lord said unto him, “Now do ye Pharisees make clean the outside of the cup and the platter, but your inward part is full of ravening and wickedness.
40 Ye fools! Did not He that made that which is without, make that which is within also?
41 But rather give alms of such things as ye have; and behold, all things are clean unto you.
42 “But woe unto you, Pharisees! For ye tithe mint and rue and all manner of herbs, and pass over judgment and the love of God. These ought ye to have done, and not left the other undone.
43 Woe unto you, Pharisees! For ye love the uppermost seats in the synagogues and greetings in the markets.
44 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For ye are as graves which appear not, and the men that walk over them are not aware of them.”
45 Then answered one of the lawyers and said unto Him, “Master, thus saying, thou reproachest us also.”
46 And He said, “Woe unto you also, ye lawyers! For ye laden men with burdens grievous to be borne, and ye yourselves touch not the burdens with one of your fingers.
47 Woe unto you! For ye build the sepulchers of the prophets, and your fathers killed them.
48 Truly ye bear witness that ye allow the deeds of your fathers; for they indeed killed them, and ye build their sepulchers.
49 “Therefore also said the wisdom of God: ‘I will send them prophets and apostles, and some of them they shall slay and persecute,’
50 that the blood of all the prophets, which was shed from the foundation of the world, may be required of this generation,
51 from the blood of Abel unto the blood of Zechariah, who perished between the altar and the temple. Verily I say unto you, it shall be required of this generation.
52 Woe unto you, lawyers! For ye have taken away the key of knowledge. Ye entered not in yourselves, and them that were entering in, ye hindered.”
53 And as He said these things unto them, the scribes and the Pharisees began to press Him vehemently and to provoke Him to speak of many things,
54 lying in wait for Him and seeking to catch something out of His mouth, that they might accuse Him.
25 Then answered Bildad the Shuhite and said:
2 “Dominion and fear are with Him; He maketh peace in His high places.
3 Is there any number to His armies? And upon whom doth not His light arise?
4 How then can man be justified before God? Or how can he be clean that is born of a woman?
5 Behold even to the moon, and it shineth not; yea, the stars are not pure in His sight.
6 How much less man, that is a worm? And the son of man, that is a worm?”
26 But Job answered and said:
2 “How hast thou helped him that is without power? How savest thou the arm that hath no strength?
3 How hast thou counseled him that hath no wisdom? And how hast thou plentifully declared the thing as it is?
4 To whom hast thou uttered words? And whose spirit came from thee?
5 Dead things are formed from under the waters, and the inhabitants thereof.
6 “Hell is naked before Him, and destruction hath no covering.
7 He stretcheth out the north over the empty place, and hangeth the earth upon nothing.
8 He bindeth up the waters in His thick clouds, and the cloud is not rent under them.
9 He holdeth back the face of His throne, and spreadeth His cloud upon it.
10 He hath compassed the waters with bounds, until the day and night come to an end.
11 The pillars of heaven tremble, and are astonished at His reproof.
12 He divideth the sea with His power, and by His understanding He smiteth through the proud.
13 By His Spirit He hath garnished the heavens; His hand hath formed the crooked serpent.
14 Lo, these are parts of His ways, but how little a portion is heard of Him! But the thunder of His power, who can understand?”
12 Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I would not have you ignorant.
2 Ye know that ye were Gentiles, carried away unto these dumb idols, even as ye were led.
3 Therefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed, and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, except by the Holy Ghost.
4 Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.
5 And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord.
6 And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God who worketh all in all.
7 But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit thereby:
8 For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit;
9 to another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit;
10 to another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues.
11 But all of these that one and the selfsame Spirit worketh, apportioning to every man individually as He will.
12 For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body, so also is Christ.
13 For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we are Jews or Gentiles, whether we are bond or free, and have been all made to drink into one Spirit.
14 For the body is not one member, but many.
15 If the foot shall say, “Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body,” is it therefore not of the body?
16 And if the ear shall say, “Because I am not the eye, I am not of the body,” is it therefore not of the body?
17 If the whole body were an eye, where would be the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where would be the smelling?
18 But now hath God set the members, every one of them, in the body as it hath pleased Him.
19 And if they were all one member, where would be the body?
20 But now there are many members, yet but one body.
21 And the eye cannot say unto the hand, “I have no need of thee”; nor again the head to the feet, “I have no need of you.”
22 Nay, much more those members of the body which seem to be more feeble are necessary.
23 And those members of the body which we think to be less honorable, upon these we bestow more abundant honor; and our uncomely parts have more abundant comeliness.
24 For our comely parts have no need, but God hath tempered the body together, having given more abundant honor to that part which lacked,
25 that there should be no schism in the body, but that the members should have the same care one for another.
26 And whenever one member suffer, all the members suffer with it; or when one member is honored, all the members rejoice with it.
27 Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular.
28 And God hath set some in the church: first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracle workers, then those with gifts of healing, helpers, administrators, and those with diversity of tongues.
29 Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Are all workers of miracles?
30 Have all the gifts of healing? Do all speak with tongues? Do all interpret?
31 But covet earnestly the best gifts, and yet show I unto you a more excellent way.
