Acts 5:27-32

27 and having brought them, they set [them] in the sanhedrim, and the chief priest questioned them,

28 saying, `Did not we strictly command you not to teach in this name? and lo, ye have filled Jerusalem with your teaching, and ye intend to bring upon us the blood of this man.'

29 And Peter and the apostles answering, said, `To obey God it behoveth, rather than men;

30 and the God of our fathers did raise up Jesus, whom ye slew, having hanged upon a tree;

31 this one God, a Prince and a Saviour, hath exalted with His right hand, to give reformation to Israel, and forgiveness of sins;

32 and we are His witnesses of these sayings, and the Holy Spirit also, whom God gave to those obeying him.'

Psalm 118:14-29

14 My strength and song [is] Jah, And He is to me for salvation.

15 A voice of singing and salvation, [Is] in the tents of the righteous, The right hand of Jehovah is doing valiantly.

16 The right hand of Jehovah is exalted, The right hand of Jehovah is doing valiantly.

17 I do not die, but live, And recount the works of Jah,

18 Jah hath sorely chastened me, And to death hath not given me up.

19 Open ye to me gates of righteousness, I enter into them -- I thank Jah.

20 This [is] the gate to Jehovah, The righteous enter into it.

21 I thank Thee, for Thou hast answered me, And art to me for salvation.

22 A stone the builders refused Hath become head of a corner.

23 From Jehovah hath this been, It [is] wonderful in our eyes,

24 This [is] the day Jehovah hath made, We rejoice and are glad in it.

25 I beseech Thee, O Jehovah, save, I pray Thee, I beseech Thee, O Jehovah, prosper, I pray Thee.

26 Blessed [is] he who is coming In the name of Jehovah, We blessed you from the house of Jehovah,

27 God [is] Jehovah, and He giveth to us light, Direct ye the festal-sacrifice with cords, Unto the horns of the altar.

28 My God Thou [art], and I confess Thee, My God, I exalt Thee.

29 Give ye thanks to Jehovah, For good, for to the age, [is] His kindness!

Psalm 150

150 Praise ye Jah! Praise ye God in His holy place, Praise Him in the expanse of His strength.

Praise Him in His mighty acts, Praise Him according to the abundance of His greatness.

Praise Him with blowing of trumpet, Praise Him with psaltery and harp.

Praise Him with timbrel and dance, Praise Him with stringed instruments and organ.

Praise Him with cymbals of sounding, Praise Him with cymbals of shouting.

All that doth breathe doth praise Jah! Praise ye Jah!

Revelation 1:4-8

John to the seven assemblies that [are] in Asia: Grace to you, and peace, from Him who is, and who was, and who is coming, and from the Seven Spirits that are before His throne,

and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the first-born out of the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth; to him who did love us, and did bathe us from our sins in his blood,

and did make us kings and priests to his God and Father, to him [is] the glory and the power to the ages of the ages! Amen.

Lo, he doth come with the clouds, and see him shall every eye, even those who did pierce him, and wail because of him shall all the tribes of the land. Yes! Amen!

`I am the Alpha and the Omega, beginning and end, saith the Lord, who is, and who was, and who is coming -- the Almighty.'

John 20:19-31

19 It being, therefore, evening, on that day, the first of the sabbaths, and the doors having been shut where the disciples were assembled, through fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in the midst, and saith to them, `Peace to you;'

20 and this having said, he shewed them his hands and side; the disciples, therefore, rejoiced, having seen the Lord.

21 Jesus, therefore, said to them again, `Peace to you; according as the Father hath sent me, I also send you;'

22 and this having said, he breathed on [them], and saith to them, `Receive the Holy Spirit;

23 if of any ye may loose the sins, they are loosed to them; if of any ye may retain, they have been retained.'

24 And Thomas, one of the twelve, who is called Didymus, was not with them when Jesus came;

25 the other disciples, therefore, said to him, `We have seen the Lord;' and he said to them, `If I may not see in his hands the mark of the nails, and may put my finger to the mark of the nails, and may put my hand to his side, I will not believe.'

26 And after eight days, again were his disciples within, and Thomas with them; Jesus cometh, the doors having been shut, and he stood in the midst, and said, `Peace to you!'

27 then he saith to Thomas, `Bring thy finger hither, and see my hands, and bring thy hand, and put [it] to my side, and become not unbelieving, but believing.'

28 And Thomas answered and said to him, `My Lord and my God;'

29 Jesus saith to him, `Because thou hast seen me, Thomas, thou hast believed; happy those not having seen, and having believed.'

30 Many indeed, therefore, other signs also did Jesus before his disciples, that are not written in this book;

31 and these have been written that ye may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing ye may have life in his name.'
