¹⁰ O ye that love Jehovah, hate evil: He preserveth the souls of his saints; He delivereth them out of the hand of the wicked.

²³ Oh love Jehovah, all ye his saints: Jehovah preserveth the faithful, And plentifully rewardeth him that dealeth proudly.

⁵ who by the power of God are guarded through faith unto a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.

⁶ Wherein ye greatly rejoice, though now for a little while, if need be, ye have been put to grief in manifold trials,

⁷ that the proof of your faith, `being' more precious than gold that perisheth though it is proved by fire, may be found unto praise and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ:

⁸ whom not having seen ye love; on whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice greatly with joy unspeakable and full of glory:

⁵ Hearken, my beloved brethren; did not God choose them that are poor as to the world `to be' rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which he promised to them that love him?

²⁸ And we know that to them that love God all things work together for good, `even' to them that are called according to `his' purpose.

²⁹ For whom he foreknew, he also foreordained `to be' conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren:

³⁰ and whom he foreordained, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified.

²⁷ My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:

²⁸ and I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, and no one shall snatch them out of my hand.

²⁹ My Father, who hath given `them' unto me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch `them' out of the Father's hand.

⁴¹ Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into the eternal fire which is prepared for the devil and his angels:

²⁸ For Jehovah loveth justice, And forsaketh not his saints; They are preserved for ever: But the seed of the wicked shall be cut off.

¹⁷ The wicked shall be turned back unto Sheol, Even all the nations that forget God.

⁵ Thou hast rebuked the nations, thou hast destroyed the wicked; Thou hast blotted out their name for ever and ever.

⁶ For Jehovah knoweth the way of the righteous; But the way of the wicked shall perish.

⁶ and showing lovingkindness unto thousands of them that love me and keep my commandments.
