Psalm 107:1-16

107 Give ye thanks unto Jehovah; for he is good; for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever.

Let the redeemed of Jehovah say so, whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the oppressor,

And gathered out of the countries, from the east and from the west, from the north and from the sea.

They wandered in the wilderness in a desert way, they found no city of habitation;

Hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted in them:

Then they cried unto Jehovah in their trouble, [and] he delivered them out of their distresses,

And he led them forth by a right way, that they might go to a city of habitation.

Let them give thanks unto Jehovah for his loving-kindness, and for his wondrous works to the children of men;

For he hath satisfied the longing soul and filled the hungry soul with good.

10 Such as inhabit darkness and the shadow of death, bound in affliction and iron,

11 Because they had rebelled against the words of God, and had despised the counsel of the Most High; …

12 And he bowed down their heart with labour; they stumbled, and there was none to help:

13 Then they cried unto Jehovah in their trouble, [and] he saved them out of their distresses;

14 He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, and broke their bands in sunder.

15 Let them give thanks unto Jehovah for his loving-kindness, and for his wondrous works to the children of men;

16 For he hath broken the gates of bronze, and cut asunder the bars of iron.

Isaiah 60:15-22

15 Instead of thy being forsaken and hated, so that no one went through [thee], I will make thee an eternal excellency, a joy from generation to generation.

16 And thou shalt suck the milk of the nations, and shalt suck the breast of kings; and thou shalt know that I, Jehovah, [am] thy Saviour and thy Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob.

17 For bronze I will bring gold, and for iron I will bring silver, and for wood bronze, and for stones iron; and I will make thine officers peace, and thy rulers righteousness.

18 Violence shall no more be heard in thy land, wasting nor destruction within thy borders; but thou shalt call thy walls Salvation, and thy gates Praise.

19 The sun shall be no more thy light by day, neither for brightness shall the moon give light unto thee; but Jehovah shall be thine everlasting light, and thy God thy glory.

20 Thy sun shall no more go down, neither shall thy moon withdraw itself; for Jehovah shall be thine everlasting light, and the days of thy mourning shall be ended.

21 Thy people also shall be all righteous: they shall possess the land for ever—the branch of my planting, the work of my hands, that I may be glorified.

22 The little one shall become a thousand, and the smallest a mighty nation: I, Jehovah, will hasten it in its time.

John 8:12-20

12 Again therefore Jesus spoke to them, saying, I am the light of the world; he that follows me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.

13 The Pharisees therefore said to him, Thou bearest witness concerning thyself; thy witness is not true.

14 Jesus answered and said to them, Even if I bear witness concerning myself, my witness is true, because I know whence I came and whither I go: but ye know not whence I come and whither I go.

15 Ye judge according to the flesh, I judge no one.

16 And if also I judge, my judgment is true, because I am not alone, but I and the Father who has sent me.

17 And in your law too it is written that the testimony of two men is true:

18 I am [one] who bear witness concerning myself, and the Father who has sent me bears witness concerning me.

19 They said to him therefore, Where is thy Father? Jesus answered, Ye know neither me nor my Father. If ye had known me, ye would have known also my Father.

20 These words spoke he in the treasury, teaching in the temple; and no one took him, for his hour was not yet come.
