12 But thou, O Lord, dost [a]remain forever, and thy remembrance from generation to generation.
13 Thou wilt arise and have mercy upon Zion: for the time to have mercy thereon, for the [b]appointed time is come.
14 For thy servants delight in the [c]stones thereof, and have pity on the dust thereof.
15 Then the heathen shall fear the Name of the Lord, and all the kings of the earth thy glory,
16 When the Lord shall build up Zion, and shall appear [d]in his glory,
17 And shall turn unto the prayer of the desolate, and not despise their prayer.
18 This shall be written for the generation to come: and the people which shall be [e]created, shall praise the Lord.
19 For he hath looked down from the height of his Sanctuary: out of the heaven did the Lord behold the earth,
20 That he might hear the mourning of the prisoner, and deliver the [f]children of death.
21 That they may declare the Name of the Lord in Zion, and his praise in Jerusalem,
22 When the people shall be gathered [g]together, and the kingdoms to serve the Lord.
23 He [h]abated my strength in the way, and shortened my days.
24 And I said, O my God, take me not away in the midst of my days: thy years endure from generation to generation.
25 Thou hast aforetime laid the foundation of the earth, and the heavens are the work of thine hands.
26 [i]They shall perish, but thou shalt endure: even they all shall wax old as doth a garment: as a vesture shalt thou change them, and they shall be changed.
27 But thou art the same, and thy years shall not fail.
28 The children of thy servants shall continue, and their seed shall stand [j]fast in thy sight.
8 ¶ And on a time Elisha came to Shunem, and there a woman of great estimation constrained him to eat bread: and as he passed by, he turned in thither to eat bread.
9 And she said unto her husband, Behold, I know now, that this is an holy man of God that passeth by us continually.
10 Let us make [a]him a little chamber, I pray thee, with walls, and let us set him there a bed, and a table, and a stool, and a candlestick, that he may turn in thither when he cometh to us.
11 ¶ And on a day, he came thither and turned into the chamber, and lay therein,
12 And said to Gehazi his servant, Call this Shunammite: and when he called her, she stood before him.
13 Then he said unto him, Say unto her now, Behold, thou hast had all this great care for us, [b]what shall we do for thee? Is there anything to be spoken for thee to the king or to the captain of the host? And she answered, I [c]dwell among mine own people.
14 Again he said, What is then to be done for her? Then Gehazi answered, Indeed she hath [d]no son, and her husband is old.
15 Then said he, Call her. And he called her, and she stood in the door.
16 And he said, (A)At this time appointed, according to the time of life, thou shalt embrace a son. And she said, Oh my Lord, thou man of God, do not lie unto thine handmaid.
17 So the woman conceived, and bore a son at that same season, according to the time of life, that Elisha had said unto her.
32 ¶ Then came Elisha into the house, and behold, the child was dead, and laid upon his bed.
33 He went in therefore, and shut the door upon them twain, and prayed unto the Lord.
34 After he went up, and [a]lay upon the child, and put his mouth on his mouth, and his eyes upon his eyes, and his hands upon his hands, and stretched himself upon him, and the flesh of the child waxed warm.
35 And he went from him, and walked up and down in the house, and went up and spread himself upon him: then the child sneezed [b]seven times, and opened his eyes.
36 Then he called Gehazi, and said, Call this Shunammite. So he called her, which came in unto him. And he said unto her, Take thy son.
37 And she came, and fell at his feet, and bowed herself to the ground, and took up her son, and went out.
14 1 Paul and Barnabas 5 are persecuted at Iconium: 6 At Lystra Paul 10 healeth a cripple: 13 They are about to do sacrifice unto them, 18 but they forbid it. 19 Paul by the persuasion of certain Jews, is stoned: 23 From thence passing through divers Churches, 26 they return to Antioch.
1 And [a]it came to pass in [b]Iconium, that they went both together into the Synagogue of the Jews, and so spake, that a great multitude both of the Jews and of the Grecians believed.
2 And the [c]unbelieving Jews stirred up, and corrupted the minds of the Gentiles against the brethren.
3 [d]So therefore they abode there a long time, and spake boldly in the Lord, which gave testimony unto the word of his grace, and caused signs and wonders to be done by their hands.
4 But the multitude of the city was divided: and some were with the Jews, and some with the Apostles.
5 And when there was an assault made both of the Gentiles, and of the Jews with their rulers, to do them violence, and to stone them,
6 They were ware of it, and [e]fled unto Lystra, and Derbe, cities of Lycaonia, and unto the region round about,
7 And there preached the Gospel.
