Genesis 3:8-15

And they heard the voice of Jehovah Elohim, walking in the garden in the cool of the day. And Man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of Jehovah Elohim, in the midst of the trees of the garden.

And Jehovah Elohim called to Man, and said to him, Where art thou?

10 And he said, I heard thy voice in the garden, and I feared, because I am naked; and I hid myself.

11 And he said, Who told thee that thou art naked? Hast thou eaten of the tree of which I commanded thee not to eat?

12 And Man said, The woman, whom thou hast given [to be] with me, she gave me of the tree, and I ate.

13 And Jehovah Elohim said to the woman, What is this thou hast done? And the woman said, The serpent deceived me, and I ate.

14 And Jehovah Elohim said to the serpent, Because thou hast done this, be thou cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field. On thy belly shalt thou go, and eat dust all the days of thy life.

15 And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; he shall crush thy head, and thou shalt crush his heel.

Psalm 130

A Song of degrees.

130 Out of the depths do I call upon thee, Jehovah.

Lord, hear my voice; let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplication.

If thou, Jah, shouldest mark iniquities, Lord, who shall stand?

But there is forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared.

I wait for Jehovah; my soul doth wait, and in his word do I hope.

My soul [waiteth] for the Lord more than the watchers [wait] for the morning, [more than] the watchers for the morning.

Let Israel hope in Jehovah, because with Jehovah there is loving-kindness, and with him is plenteous redemption;

And he will redeem Israel from all his iniquities.

2 Corinthians 4:13-5:1

13 And having the same spirit of faith, according to what is written, I have believed, therefore have I spoken; *we* also believe, therefore also we speak;

14 knowing that he who has raised the Lord Jesus shall raise us also with Jesus, and shall present [us] with you.

15 For all things [are] for your sakes, that the grace abounding through the many may cause thanksgiving to abound to the glory of God.

16 Wherefore we faint not; but if indeed our outward man is consumed, yet the inward is renewed day by day.

17 For our momentary [and] light affliction works for us in surpassing measure an eternal weight of glory;

18 while we look not at the things that are seen, but at the things that are not seen; for the things that are seen [are] for a time, but those that are not seen eternal.

For we know that if our earthly tabernacle house be destroyed, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.

Mark 3:20-35

20 And again a crowd comes together, so that they cannot even eat bread.

21 And his relatives having heard [of it] went out to lay hold on him, for they said, He is out of his mind.

22 And the scribes who had come down from Jerusalem said, He has Beelzebub, and, By the prince of the demons he casts out demons.

23 And having called them to [him], he said to them in parables, How can Satan cast out Satan?

24 And if a kingdom has become divided against itself, that kingdom cannot subsist.

25 And if a house has become divided against itself, that house cannot subsist.

26 And if Satan rise up against himself, and is divided, he cannot subsist, but has an end.

27 But no one can, having entered into his house, plunder the goods of the strong [man] unless he first bind the strong [man], and then he will plunder his house.

28 Verily I say unto you, that all sins shall be forgiven to the sons of men, and all the injurious speeches [with] which they may speak injuriously;

29 but whosoever shall speak injuriously against the Holy Spirit, to eternity has no forgiveness; but lies under the guilt of an everlasting sin;

30 —because they said, He has an unclean spirit.

31 And his brethren and his mother come, and standing without sent to him calling him.

32 And a crowd sat around him. And they said to him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren seek thee without.

33 And he answered them, saying, Who is my mother or my brethren?

34 And looking around in a circuit at those that were sitting around him, he says, Behold my mother and my brethren:

35 for whosoever shall do the will of God, *he* is my brother, and sister, and mother.
