Joshua 5

• 1. And it came to pass, when all the kings of the Amorites, which were on the side of Jordan westward, and all the kings of the Canaanites, which were by the sea, heard that the LORD had dried up the waters of Jordan from before the children of Israel, until we were passed over, that their heart melted, neither was there spirit in them any more, because of the children of Israel.
• 2. At that time the LORD said unto Joshua, Make thee sharp knives, and circumcise again the children of Israel the second time.
• 3. And Joshua made him sharp knives, and circumcised the children of Israel at the hill of the foreskins.
• 4. And this is the cause why Joshua did circumcise: All the people that came out of Egypt, that were males, even all the men of war, died in the wilderness by the way, after they came out of Egypt.
• 5. Now all the people that came out were circumcised: but all the people that were born in the wilderness by the way as they came forth out of Egypt, them they had not circumcised.
• 6. For the children of Israel walked forty years in the wilderness, till all the people that were men of war, which came out of Egypt, were consumed, because they obeyed not the voice of the LORD: unto whom the LORD sware that he would not shew them the land, which the LORD sware unto their fathers that he would give us, a land that floweth with milk and honey.
• 7. And their children, whom he raised up in their stead, them Joshua circumcised: for they were uncircumcised, because they had not circumcised them by the way.
• 8. And it came to pass, when they had done circumcising all the people, that they abode in their places in the camp, till they were whole.
• 9. And the LORD said unto Joshua, This day have I rolled away the reproach of Egypt from off you. Wherefore the name of the place is called Gilgal unto this day.
• 10. And the children of Israel encamped in Gilgal, and kept the passover on the fourteenth day of the month at even in the plains of Jericho.
• 11. And they did eat of the old corn of the land on the morrow after the passover, unleavened cakes, and parched corn in the selfsame day.
• 12. And the manna ceased on the morrow after they had eaten of the old corn of the land; neither had the children of Israel manna any more; but they did eat of the fruit of the land of Canaan that year.
• 13. And it came to pass, when Joshua was by Jericho, that he lifted up his eyes and looked, and, behold, there stood a man over against him with his sword drawn in his hand: and Joshua went unto him, and said unto him, Art thou for us, or for our adversaries?
• 14. And he said, Nay; but as captain of the host of the LORD am I now come. And Joshua fell on his face to the earth, and did worship, and said unto him, What saith my Lord unto his servant?
• 15. And the captain of the LORD's host said unto Joshua, Loose thy shoe from off thy foot; for the place whereon thou standest is holy. And Joshua did so.

Psalms 132

• 1. Lord, remember David, and all his afflictions:
• 2. How he sware unto the LORD, and vowed unto the mighty God of Jacob;
• 3. Surely I will not come into the tabernacle of my house, nor go up into my bed;
• 4. I will not give sleep to mine eyes, or slumber to mine eyelids,
• 5. Until I find out a place for the LORD, an habitation for the mighty God of Jacob.
• 6. Lo, we heard of it at Ephratah: we found it in the fields of the wood.
• 7. We will go into his tabernacles: we will worship at his footstool.
• 8. Arise, O LORD, into thy rest; thou, and the ark of thy strength.
• 9. Let thy priests be clothed with righteousness; and let thy saints shout for joy.
• 10. For thy servant David's sake turn not away the face of thine anointed.
• 11. The LORD hath sworn in truth unto David; he will not turn from it; Of the fruit of thy body will I set upon thy throne.
• 12. If thy children will keep my covenant and my testimony that I shall teach them, their children shall also sit upon thy throne for evermore.
• 13. For the LORD hath chosen Zion; he hath desired it for his habitation.
• 14. This is my rest for ever: here will I dwell; for I have desired it.
• 15. I will abundantly bless her provision: I will satisfy her poor with bread.
• 16. I will also clothe her priests with salvation: and her saints shall shout aloud for joy.
• 17. There will I make the horn of David to bud: I have ordained a lamp for mine anointed.
• 18. His enemies will I clothe with shame: but upon himself shall his crown flourish.

Psalms 133

• 1. Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!
• 2. It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, even Aaron's beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments;
• 3. As the dew of Hermon, and as the dew that descended upon the mountains of Zion: for there the LORD commanded the blessing, even life for evermore.

Psalms 134

• 1. Behold, bless ye the LORD, all ye servants of the LORD, which by night stand in the house of the LORD.
• 2. Lift up your hands in the sanctuary, and bless the LORD.
• 3. The LORD that made heaven and earth bless thee out of Zion.

Isaiah 65

• 1. I am sought of them that asked not for me; I am found of them that sought me not: I said, Behold me, behold me, unto a nation that was not called by my name.
• 2. I have spread out my hands all the day unto a rebellious people, which walketh in a way that was not good, after their own thoughts;
• 3. A people that provoketh me to anger continually to my face; that sacrificeth in gardens, and burneth incense upon altars of brick;
• 4. Which remain among the graves, and lodge in the monuments, which eat swine's flesh, and broth of abominable things is in their vessels;
• 5. Which say, Stand by thyself, come not near to me; for I am holier than thou. These are a smoke in my nose, a fire that burneth all the day.
• 6. Behold, it is written before me: I will not keep silence, but will recompense, even recompense into their bosom,
• 7. Your iniquities, and the iniquities of your fathers together, saith the LORD, which have burned incense upon the mountains, and blasphemed me upon the hills: therefore will I measure their former work into their bosom.
• 8. Thus saith the LORD, As the new wine is found in the cluster, and one saith, Destroy it not; for a blessing is in it: so will I do for my servants' sakes, that I may not destroy them all.
• 9. And I will bring forth a seed out of Jacob, and out of Judah an inheritor of my mountains: and mine elect shall inherit it, and my servants shall dwell there.
• 10. And Sharon shall be a fold of flocks, and the valley of Achor a place for the herds to lie down in, for my people that have sought me.
• 11. But ye are they that forsake the LORD, that forget my holy mountain, that prepare a table for that troop, and that furnish the drink offering unto that number.
• 12. Therefore will I number you to the sword, and ye shall all bow down to the slaughter: because when I called, ye did not answer; when I spake, ye did not hear; but did evil before mine eyes, and did choose that wherein I delighted not.
• 13. Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, my servants shall eat, but ye shall be hungry: behold, my servants shall drink, but ye shall be thirsty: behold, my servants shall rejoice, but ye shall be ashamed:
• 14. Behold, my servants shall sing for joy of heart, but ye shall cry for sorrow of heart, and shall howl for vexation of spirit.
• 15. And ye shall leave your name for a curse unto my chosen: for the Lord GOD shall slay thee, and call his servants by another name:
• 16. That he who blesseth himself in the earth shall bless himself in the God of truth; and he that sweareth in the earth shall swear by the God of truth; because the former troubles are forgotten, and because they are hid from mine eyes.
• 17. For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind.
• 18. But be ye glad and rejoice for ever in that which I create: for, behold, I create Jerusalem a rejoicing, and her people a joy.
• 19. And I will rejoice in Jerusalem, and joy in my people: and the voice of weeping shall be no more heard in her, nor the voice of crying.
• 20. There shall be no more thence an infant of days, nor an old man that hath not filled his days: for the child shall die an hundred years old; but the sinner being an hundred years old shall be accursed.
• 21. And they shall build houses, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and eat the fruit of them.
• 22. They shall not build, and another inhabit; they shall not plant, and another eat: for as the days of a tree are the days of my people, and mine elect shall long enjoy the work of their hands.
• 23. They shall not labour in vain, nor bring forth for trouble; for they are the seed of the blessed of the LORD, and their offspring with them.
• 24. And it shall come to pass, that before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear.
• 25. The wolf and the lamb shall feed together, and the lion shall eat straw like the bullock: and dust shall be the serpent's meat. They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain, saith the LORD.
