Psalm 119:81-88

81 CAPH. My soul fainteth for thy salvation; I hope in thy word.

82 Mine eyes fail for thy word, saying, When wilt thou comfort me?

83 For I am become like a bottle in the smoke; I do not forget thy statutes.

84 How many shall be the days of thy servant? when wilt thou execute judgment on them that persecute me?

85 The proud have digged pits for me, which is not according to thy law.

86 All thy commandments are faithfulness. They persecute me wrongfully: help thou me.

87 They had almost consumed me upon the earth; but as for me, I forsook not thy precepts.

88 Quicken me according to thy loving-kindness, and I will keep the testimony of thy mouth.

Jeremiah 16:14-21

14 Therefore, behold, days are coming, saith Jehovah, that it shall no more be said, [As] Jehovah liveth, who brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt;

15 but, [As] Jehovah liveth, who brought up the children of Israel from the land of the north, and from all the lands whither he had driven them. For I will bring them again into their land, which I gave unto their fathers.

16 Behold, I will send for many fishers, saith Jehovah, and they shall fish them; and afterwards will I send for many hunters, and they shall hunt them, from every mountain, and from every hill, and out of the holes of the rocks.

17 For mine eyes are upon all their ways; they are not concealed from my face, neither is their iniquity hidden from before mine eyes.

18 But first I will recompense their iniquity and their sin double, because they have profaned my land with the carcases of their detestable things, and with their abominations have they filled mine inheritance.

19 Jehovah, my strength and my fortress, and my refuge in the day of distress, unto thee shall the nations come from the ends of the earth, and they shall say, Surely our fathers have inherited falsehood [and] vanity; and in these things there is no profit.

20 Shall a man make gods unto himself, and they are no-gods?

21 Therefore, behold, I will this once cause them to know, I will cause them to know my hand and my might; and they shall know that my name is Jehovah.

John 7:1-9

And after these things Jesus walked in Galilee, for he would not walk in Judaea, because the Jews sought to kill him.

Now the tabernacles, the feast of the Jews, was near.

His brethren therefore said to him, Remove hence and go into Judaea, that thy disciples also may see thy works which thou doest;

for no one does anything in secret and himself seeks to be [known] in public. If thou doest these things, manifest thyself to the world:

for neither did his brethren believe on him.

Jesus therefore says to them, My time is not yet come, but your time is always ready.

The world cannot hate you, but me it hates, because I bear witness concerning it that its works are evil.

Ye, go ye up to this feast. I go not up to this feast, for *my* time is not yet fulfilled.

Having said these things to them he abode in Galilee.
