3 [d]I have made a covenant with my chosen: I have sworn to David my servant,
4 Thy seed will I stablish forever, and set up thy throne from generation to generation. Selah.
15 Blessed is the people that can [a]rejoice in thee: they shall walk in the light of thy [b]countenance, O Lord.

2 Thus speaketh the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, saying, I have broken the yoke of the King of Babel.
3 [d]Within two years space I will bring into this place all the vessels of the Lord’s House, that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babel took away from this place, and carried them into Babel.
4 And I will bring again to this place Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim King of Judah, with all them that were carried away captive of Judah, and went into Babel, saith the Lord: for I will break the yoke of the king of Babel.

1 Then said he to his disciples, (A)[a]It cannot be avoided, but that offences will come, but woe be to him by whom they come.
