Daniel 1:1-2:23
1 Peter 3:8-4:6
Psalm 119:65-80
Proverbs 28:14
Dan 1:1 In the third
year of the reign of Jehoiakim king of Judah came Nebuchadnezzar king of
Babylon unto Jerusalem, and besieged it.
Dan 1:2 And the Lord
gave Jehoiakim king of Judah into his hand, with part of the vessels of the
house of God: which he carried into the land of Shinar to the house of his god;
and he brought the vessels into the treasure house of his god.
Dan 1:3 And the king
spake unto Ashpenaz the master of his eunuchs, that he should bring certain
of the children of Israel, and of the king's seed, and of the princes;
Dan 1:4 Children in
whom was no blemish, but well favoured, and skilful in all wisdom, and
cunning in knowledge, and understanding science, and such as had ability
in them to stand in the king's palace, and whom they might teach the learning
and the tongue of the Chaldeans.
Dan 1:5 And the king
appointed them a daily provision of the king's meat, and of the wine which he
drank: so nourishing them three years, that at the end thereof they might stand
before the king.
Dan 1:6 Now among these
were of the children of Judah, Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah:
Dan 1:7 Unto whom the
prince of the eunuchs gave names: for he gave unto Daniel the name of
Belteshazzar; and to Hananiah, of Shadrach; and to Mishael, of Meshach; and to
Azariah, of Abednego.
Dan 1:8 But Daniel
purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the
king's meat, nor with the wine which he drank: therefore he requested of the
prince of the eunuchs that he might not defile himself.
Dan 1:9 Now God had
brought Daniel into favour and tender love with the prince of the
eunuchs.
Dan 1:10 And the prince
of the eunuchs said unto Daniel, I fear my lord the king, who hath appointed
your meat and your drink: for why should he see your faces worse liking than
the children which are of your sort? then shall ye make me
endanger my head to the king.
Dan 1:11 Then said
Daniel to Melzar, whom the prince of the eunuchs had set over Daniel, Hananiah,
Mishael, and Azariah,
Dan 1:12 Prove thy
servants, I beseech thee, ten days; and let them give us pulse to eat, and
water to drink.
Dan 1:13 Then let our
countenances be looked upon before thee, and the countenance of the children
that eat of the portion of the king's meat: and as thou seest, deal with thy
servants.
Dan 1:14 So he
consented to them in this matter, and proved them ten days.
Dan 1:15 And at the end
of ten days their countenances appeared fairer and fatter in flesh than all the
children which did eat the portion of the king's meat.
Dan 1:16 Thus Melzar
took away the portion of their meat, and the wine that they should drink; and
gave them pulse.
Dan 1:17 As for these
four children, God gave them knowledge and skill in all learning and wisdom:
and Daniel had understanding in all visions and dreams.
Dan 1:18 Now at the end
of the days that the king had said he should bring them in, then the prince of
the eunuchs brought them in before Nebuchadnezzar.
Dan 1:19 And the king
communed with them; and among them all was found none like Daniel, Hananiah,
Mishael, and Azariah: therefore stood they before the king.
Dan 1:20 And in all
matters of wisdom and understanding, that the king enquired of them, he
found them ten times better than all the magicians and astrologers that were
in all his realm.
Dan 1:21 And Daniel
continued even unto the first year of king Cyrus.
Dan 2:1 And in the
second year of the reign of Nebuchadnezzar Nebuchadnezzar dreamed dreams,
wherewith his spirit was troubled, and his sleep brake from him.
Dan 2:2 Then the king
commanded to call the magicians, and the astrologers, and the sorcerers, and
the Chaldeans, for to shew the king his dreams. So they came and stood before
the king.
Dan 2:3 And the king
said unto them, I have dreamed a dream, and my spirit was troubled to know the
dream.
Dan 2:4 Then spake the
Chaldeans to the king in Syriack, O king, live for ever: tell thy servants the
dream, and we will shew the interpretation.
Dan 2:5 The king
answered and said to the Chaldeans, The thing is gone from me: if ye will not
make known unto me the dream, with the interpretation thereof, ye shall be cut
in pieces, and your houses shall be made a dunghill.
Dan 2:6 But if ye shew
the dream, and the interpretation thereof, ye shall receive of me gifts and
rewards and great honour: therefore shew me the dream, and the interpretation
thereof.
Dan 2:7 They answered
again and said, Let the king tell his servants the dream, and we will shew the
interpretation of it.
Dan 2:8 The king
answered and said, I know of certainty that ye would gain the time, because ye
see the thing is gone from me.
Dan 2:9 But if ye will
not make known unto me the dream, there is but one decree for you: for
ye have prepared lying and corrupt words to speak before me, till the time be
changed: therefore tell me the dream, and I shall know that ye can shew me the
interpretation thereof.
Dan 2:10 The Chaldeans
answered before the king, and said, There is not a man upon the earth that can
shew the king's matter: therefore there is no king, lord, nor ruler, that
asked such things at any magician, or astrologer, or Chaldean.
Dan 2:11 And it is
a rare thing that the king requireth, and there is none other that can shew it
before the king, except the gods, whose dwelling is not with flesh.
Dan 2:12 For this cause
the king was angry and very furious, and commanded to destroy all the wise men
of Babylon.
Dan 2:13 And the decree
went forth that the wise men should be slain; and they sought Daniel and
his fellows to be slain.
Dan 2:14 Then Daniel
answered with counsel and wisdom to Arioch the captain of the king's guard,
which was gone forth to slay the wise men of Babylon:
Dan 2:15 He answered and
said to Arioch the king's captain, Why is the decree so hasty
from the king? Then Arioch made the thing known to Daniel.
Dan 2:16 Then Daniel
went in, and desired of the king that he would give him time, and that he would
shew the king the interpretation.
Dan 2:17 Then Daniel
went to his house, and made the thing known to Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah,
his companions:
Dan 2:18 That they
would desire mercies of the God of heaven concerning this secret; that Daniel
and his fellows should not perish with the rest of the wise men of
Babylon.
Dan 2:19 Then was the
secret revealed unto Daniel in a night vision. Then Daniel blessed the God of
heaven.
Dan 2:20 Daniel
answered and said, Blessed be the name of God for ever and ever: for wisdom and
might are his:
Dan 2:21 And he
changeth the times and the seasons: he removeth kings, and setteth up kings: he
giveth wisdom unto the wise, and knowledge to them that know
understanding:
Dan 2:22 He revealeth
the deep and secret things: he knoweth what is in the darkness, and the
light dwelleth with him.
Dan 2:23 I thank thee,
and praise thee, O thou God of my fathers, who hast given me wisdom and might,
and hast made known unto me now what we desired of thee: for thou hast now
made known unto us the king's matter.
1Pe 3:8 Finally, be
ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, love as brethren, be
pitiful, be courteous:
1Pe 3:9 Not rendering
evil for evil, or railing for railing: but contrariwise blessing; knowing that
ye are thereunto called, that ye should inherit a blessing.
1Pe 3:10 For he that
will love life, and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and
his lips that they speak no guile:
1Pe 3:11 Let him eschew
evil, and do good; let him seek peace, and ensue it.
1Pe 3:12 For the eyes
of the Lord are over the righteous, and his ears are open unto
their prayers: but the face of the Lord is against them that do
evil.
1Pe 3:13 And who is
he that will harm you, if ye be followers of that which is good?
1Pe 3:14 But and if ye
suffer for righteousness' sake, happy are ye: and be not afraid of their
terror, neither be troubled;
1Pe 3:15 But sanctify
the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an
answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with
meekness and fear:
1Pe 3:16 Having a good
conscience; that, whereas they speak evil of you, as of evildoers, they may be
ashamed that falsely accuse your good conversation in Christ.
1Pe 3:17 For it is
better, if the will of God be so, that ye suffer for well doing, than for evil
doing.
1Pe 3:18 For Christ
also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring
us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit:
1Pe 3:19 By which also
he went and preached unto the spirits in prison;
1Pe 3:20 Which sometime
were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of God waited in the days of
Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls were
saved by water.
1Pe 3:21 The like
figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us (not the putting
away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward
God,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ:
1Pe 3:22 Who is gone
into heaven, and is on the right hand of God; angels and authorities and powers
being made subject unto him.
1Pe 4:1 Forasmuch then
as Christ hath suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves likewise with the
same mind: for he that hath suffered in the flesh hath ceased from sin;
1Pe 4:2 That he no
longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh to the lusts of
men, but to the will of God.
1Pe 4:3 For the time
past of our life may suffice us to have wrought the will of the Gentiles,
when we walked in lasciviousness, lusts, excess of wine, revellings,
banquetings, and abominable idolatries:
1Pe 4:4 Wherein they
think it strange that ye run not with them to the same excess of riot,
speaking evil of you:
1Pe 4:5 Who shall give
account to him that is ready to judge the quick and the dead.
1Pe 4:6 For for this
cause was the gospel preached also to them that are dead, that they might be
judged according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the
spirit.
Psa 119:65 TETH. Thou
hast dealt well with thy servant, O LORD, according unto thy word.
Psa 119:66 Teach me
good judgment and knowledge: for I have believed thy commandments.
Psa 119:67 Before I was
afflicted I went astray: but now have I kept thy word.
Psa 119:68 Thou art
good, and doest good; teach me thy statutes.
Psa 119:69 The proud
have forged a lie against me: but I will keep thy precepts with my
whole heart.
Psa 119:70 Their heart
is as fat as grease; but I delight in thy law.
Psa 119:71 It is
good for me that I have been afflicted; that I might learn thy statutes.
Psa 119:72 The law of
thy mouth is better unto me than thousands of gold and silver.
Psa 119:73 JOD. Thy
hands have made me and fashioned me: give me understanding, that I may learn
thy commandments.
Psa 119:74 They that
fear thee will be glad when they see me; because I have hoped in thy
word.
Psa 119:75 I know, O
LORD, that thy judgments are right, and that thou in faithfulness
hast afflicted me.
Psa 119:76 Let, I pray
thee, thy merciful kindness be for my comfort, according to thy word unto thy
servant.
Psa 119:77 Let thy
tender mercies come unto me, that I may live: for thy law is my
delight.
Psa 119:78 Let the
proud be ashamed; for they dealt perversely with me without a cause: but
I will meditate in thy precepts.
Psa 119:79 Let those
that fear thee turn unto me, and those that have known thy testimonies.
Psa 119:80 Let my heart
be sound in thy statutes; that I be not ashamed.
Pro 28:14 Happy is the man that feareth alway: but he that hardeneth his heart shall fall into mischief.
