Psalm 22:25-31

25 My praise is from thee, in the great congregation; I will pay my vows before them that fear him.

26 The meek shall eat and be satisfied; they shall praise Jehovah that seek him: your heart shall live for ever.

27 All the ends of the earth shall remember and turn unto Jehovah, and all the families of the nations shall worship before thee:

28 For the kingdom is Jehovah's, and he ruleth among the nations.

29 All the fat ones of the earth shall eat and worship; all they that go down to the dust shall bow before him, and he that cannot keep alive his own soul.

30 A seed shall serve him; it shall be accounted to the Lord for a generation.

31 They shall come, and shall declare his righteousness unto a people that shall be born, that he hath done [it].

Amos 8:11-13

11 Behold, days come, saith the Lord Jehovah, when I will send a famine in the land; not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of Jehovah.

12 And they shall wander from sea to sea, and from the north to the east; they shall run to and fro to seek the word of Jehovah, and shall not find it.

13 In that day shall the fair virgins and the young men faint for thirst;

Acts 8:9-25

But a certain man, by name Simon, had been before in the city, using magic arts, and astonishing the nation of Samaria, saying that himself was some great one.

10 To whom they had all given heed, from small to great, saying, This is the power of God which is called great.

11 And they gave heed to him, because that for a long time he had astonished them by his magic arts.

12 But when they believed Philip announcing the glad tidings concerning the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptised, both men and women.

13 And Simon also himself believed; and, having been baptised, continued constantly with Philip; and, beholding the signs and great works of power which took place, was astonished.

14 And the apostles who were in Jerusalem, having heard that Samaria had received the word of God, sent to them Peter and John;

15 who, having come down, prayed for them that they might receive [the] Holy Spirit;

16 for he was not yet fallen upon any of them, only they were baptised to the name of the Lord Jesus.

17 Then they laid their hands upon them, and they received [the] Holy Spirit.

18 But Simon, having seen that by the laying on of the hands of the apostles the [Holy] Spirit was given, offered them money,

19 saying, Give to me also this power, in order that on whomsoever I may lay hands he may receive [the] Holy Spirit.

20 And Peter said to him, Thy money go with thee to destruction, because thou hast thought that the gift of God can be obtained by money.

21 Thou hast neither part nor lot in this matter, for thy heart is not upright before God.

22 Repent therefore of this thy wickedness, and supplicate the Lord, if indeed the thought of thy heart may be forgiven thee;

23 for I see thee to be in the gall of bitterness, and bond of unrighteousness.

24 And Simon answering said, Supplicate *ye* for me to the Lord, so that nothing may come upon me of the things of which ye have spoken.

25 They therefore, having testified and spoken the word of the Lord, returned to Jerusalem, and announced the glad tidings to many villages of the Samaritans.
