¹⁸ Jehovah knoweth the days of the perfect; And their inheritance shall be for ever.

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

¹⁷ But the lovingkindness of Jehovah is from everlasting to everlasting upon them that fear him, And his righteousness unto children's children;

²⁴ Thou wilt guide me with thy counsel, And afterward receive me to glory.

⁷ I will be glad and rejoice in thy lovingkindness; For thou hast seen my affliction: Thou hast known my soul in adversities;

¹ But know this, that in the last days grievous times shall come.

² For men shall be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, haughty, railers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,

³ without natural affection, implacable, slanderers, without self-control, fierce, no lovers of good,

⁴ traitors, headstrong, puffed up, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God;

⁵ holding a form of godliness, but having denied the power therefore. From these also turn away.

² preach the word; be urgent in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching.

³ For the time will come when they will not endure the sound doctrine; but, having itching ears, will heap to themselves teachers after their own lusts;

⁴ and will turn away their ears from the truth, and turn aside unto fables.

⁴ unto an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you,

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

²⁵ And this is the promise which he promised us, `even' the life eternal.

³ And I will give unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth.

⁴ These are the two olive trees and the two candlesticks, standing before the Lord of the earth.

⁵ And if any man desireth to hurt them, fire proceedeth out of their mouth and devoureth their enemies; and if any man shall desire to hurt them, in this manner must he be killed.

¹⁹ Howbeit the firm foundation of God standeth, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his: and, Let every one that nameth the name of the Lord depart from unrighteousness.

²³ For the wages of sin is death; but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

²¹ that, as sin reigned in death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

¹¹ Thou wilt show me the path of life: In thy presence is fulness of joy; In thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore. Psalm 17 A Prayer of David.

⁴ He asked life of thee, thou gavest it him, Even length of days for ever and ever.

¹⁵ My times are in thy hand: Deliver me from the hand of mine enemies, and from them that persecute me.

¹³ The Lord will laugh at him; For he seeth that his day is coming.

⁵ Wherefore should I fear in the days of evil, When iniquity at my heels compasseth me about?

²¹ Thy people also shall be all righteous; they shall inherit the land for ever, the branch of my planting, the work of my hands, that I may be glorified.

³² For after all these things do the Gentiles seek; for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.

²¹ for then shall be great tribulation, such as hath not been from the beginning of the world until now, no, nor ever shall be.

²² And except those days had been shortened, no flesh would have been saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.

²³ Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is the Christ, or, Here; believe `it' not.

²⁴ For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall show great signs and wonders; so as to lead astray, if possible, even the elect.

²⁵ Thy bars shall be iron and brass; And as thy days, so shall thy strength be.
