As many were astonied at thee; his visage was so marred more than any man, and his form more than the sons of men:
Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the LORD shall prosper in his hand. He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities.

But the Jews which believed not, moved with envy, took unto them certain lewd fellows of the baser sContinue Reading
These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.
I will sing of the mercies of the LORD for ever: with my mouth will I make known thy faithfulness to all generations.
