Psalm 86:1-10

86 A Prayer of David. Incline, O Jehovah, Thine ear, Answer me, for I [am] poor and needy.

Keep my soul, for I [am] pious, Save Thy servant -- who is trusting to Thee, O Thou, my God.

Favour me, O Lord, for to Thee I call all the day.

Rejoice the soul of Thy servant, For unto Thee, O Lord, my soul I lift up.

For Thou, Lord, [art] good and forgiving. And abundant in kindness to all calling Thee.

Hear, O Jehovah, my prayer, And attend to the voice of my supplications.

In a day of my distress I call Thee, For Thou dost answer me.

There is none like Thee among the gods, O Lord, And like Thy works there are none.

All nations that Thou hast made Come and bow themselves before Thee, O Lord, And give honour to Thy name.

10 For great [art] Thou, and doing wonders, Thou [art] God Thyself alone.

Ezekiel 29:3-7

Speak, and thou hast said: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I [am] against thee, Pharaoh king of Egypt! The great dragon that is crouching in the midst of his floods, Who hath said, My flood [is] my own, And I -- I have made it [for] myself.

And I have put hooks in thy jaws, And I have caused the fish of thy floods to cleave to thy scales, And I have caused thee to come up from the midst of thy floods, And every fish of thy floods to thy scales doth cleave.

And I have left thee in the wilderness, Thou and every fish of thy floods, On the face of the field thou dost fall, Thou art not gathered nor assembled, To the beast of the earth and to the fowl of the heavens I have given thee for food.

And known have all inhabitants of Egypt That I [am] Jehovah, Because of their being a staff of reed to the house of Israel.

In their taking hold of thee by thy hand, -- thou art crushed, And hast rent to them all the shoulder, And in their leaning on thee thou art broken, And hast caused all their thighs to stand.

Luke 11:53-12:3

53 And in his speaking these things unto them, the scribes and the Pharisees began fearfully to urge and to press him to speak about many things,

54 laying wait for him, and seeking to catch something out of his mouth, that they might accuse him.

12 At which time the myriads of the multitude having been gathered together, so as to tread upon one another, he began to say unto his disciples, first, `Take heed to yourselves of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy;

and there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; and hid, that shall not be known;

because whatever in the darkness ye said, in the light shall be heard: and what to the ear ye spake in the inner-chambers, shall be proclaimed upon the house-tops.
