| Numbers 11:
25 - 29
| |
| 25 | Then the LORD came down in the cloud and spoke to him, and took some of the spirit that was upon him and put it upon the seventy elders; and when the spirit rested upon them, they prophesied. But they did so no more. |
| 26 | Now two men remained in the camp, one named Eldad, and the other named Medad, and the spirit rested upon them; they were among those registered, but they had not gone out to the tent, and so they prophesied in the camp. |
| 27 | And a young man ran and told Moses, "Eldad and Medad are prophesying in the camp." |
| 28 | And Joshua the son of Nun, the minister of Moses, one of his chosen men, said, "My lord Moses, forbid them." |
| 29 | But Moses said to him, "Are you jealous for my sake? Would that all the LORD's people were prophets, that the LORD would put his spirit upon them!" |
| Psalms 19:
8, 10, 12 - 14
| |
| 8 | the precepts of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart; the commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes; |
| 10 | More to be desired are they than gold, even much fine gold; sweeter also than honey and drippings of the honeycomb. |
| 12 | But who can discern his errors? Clear thou me from hidden faults. |
| 13 | Keep back thy servant also from presumptuous sins; let them not have dominion over me! Then I shall be blameless, and innocent of great transgression. |
| 14 | Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my rock and my redeemer. |
| James 5: 1
- 6
| |
| 1 | Come now, you rich, weep and howl for the miseries that are coming upon you. |
| 2 | Your riches have rotted and your garments are moth-eaten. |
| 3 | Your gold and silver have rusted, and their rust will be evidence against you and will eat your flesh like fire. You have laid up treasure for the last days. |
| 4 | Behold, the wages of the laborers who mowed your fields, which you kept back by fraud, cry out; and the cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of the Lord of hosts. |
| 5 | You have lived on the earth in luxury and in pleasure; you have fattened your hearts in a day of slaughter. |
| 6 | You have condemned, you have killed the righteous man; he does not resist you. |
| Mark 9: 38
- 43, 45, 47 - 48
| |
| 38 | John said to him, "Teacher, we saw a man casting out demons in your name, and we forbade him, because he was not following us." |
| 39 | But Jesus said, "Do not forbid him; for no one who does a mighty work in my name will be able soon after to speak evil of me. |
| 40 | For he that is not against us is for us. |
| 41 | For truly, I say to you, whoever gives you a cup of water to drink because you bear the name of Christ, will by no means lose his reward. |
| 42 | "Whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him if a great millstone were hung round his neck and he were thrown into the sea. |
| 43 | And if your hand causes you to sin, cut it off; it is better for you to enter life maimed than with two hands to go to hell, to the unquenchable fire. |
| 45 | And if your foot causes you to sin, cut it off; it is better for you to enter life lame than with two feet to be thrown into hell. |
| 47 | And if your eye causes you to sin, pluck it out; it is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye than with two eyes to be thrown into hell, |
| 48 | where their worm does not die, and the fire is not quenched. |
