Psalm 119:113-128

113 [Samech.] Doubting ones I have hated, And Thy law I have loved.

114 My hiding place and my shield [art] Thou, For Thy word I have hoped.

115 Turn aside from me, ye evil-doers, And I keep the commands of my God.

116 Sustain me according to Thy saying, And I live, and Thou puttest me not to shame Because of my hope.

117 Support Thou me, and I am saved, And I look on Thy statutes continually.

118 Thou hast trodden down All going astray from Thy statutes, For falsehood [is] their deceit.

119 Dross! Thou hast caused to cease All the wicked of the earth; Therefore I have loved Thy testimonies.

120 Trembled from Thy fear hath my flesh, And from Thy judgments I have been afraid!

121 [Ain.] I have done judgment and righteousness, Leave me not to mine oppressors.

122 Make sure Thy servant for good, Let not the proud oppress me.

123 Mine eyes have been consumed for Thy salvation. And for the saying of Thy righteousness.

124 Do with Thy servant according to Thy kindness. And Thy statutes teach Thou me.

125 Thy servant [am] I -- cause me to understand, And I know Thy testimonies.

126 Time for Jehovah to work! they have made void Thy law.

127 Therefore I have loved Thy commands Above gold -- even fine gold.

128 Therefore all my appointments I have declared wholly right, Every path of falsehood I have hated!

1 Samuel 19:1-7

19 And Saul speaketh unto Jonathan his son, and unto all his servants, to put David to death,

and Jonathan son of Saul delighted exceedingly in David, and Jonathan declareth to David, saying, `Saul my father is seeking to put thee to death, and, now, take heed, I pray thee, in the morning, and thou hast abode in a secret place, and been hidden,

and I -- I go out, and have stood by the side of my father in the field where thou [art], and I speak of thee unto my father, and have seen what [is coming], and have declared to thee.'

And Jonathan speaketh good of David unto Saul his father, and saith unto him, `Let not the king sin against his servant, against David, because he hath not sinned against thee, and because his works for thee [are] very good;

yea, he putteth his life in his hand, and smiteth the Philistine, and Jehovah worketh a great salvation for all Israel; thou hast seen, and dost rejoice, and why dost thou sin against innocent blood, to put David to death for nought?'

And Saul hearkeneth to the voice of Jonathan, and Saul sweareth, `Jehovah liveth -- he doth not die.'

And Jonathan calleth for David, and Jonathan declareth to him all these words, and Jonathan bringeth in David unto Saul, and he is before him as heretofore.

Acts 27:39-44

39 And when the day came, they were not discerning the land, but a certain creek were perceiving having a beach, into which they took counsel, if possible, to thrust forward the ship,

40 and the anchors having taken up, they were committing [it] to the sea, at the same time -- having loosed the bands of the rudders, and having hoisted up the mainsail to the wind -- they were making for the shore,

41 and having fallen into a place of two seas, they ran the ship aground, and the fore-part, indeed, having stuck fast, did remain immoveable, but the hinder-part was broken by the violence of the waves.

42 And the soldiers' counsel was that they should kill the prisoners, lest any one having swam out should escape,

43 but the centurion, wishing to save Paul, hindered them from the counsel, and did command those able to swim, having cast themselves out first -- to get unto the land,

44 and the rest, some indeed upon boards, and some upon certain things of the ship; and thus it came to pass that all came safe unto the land.
