¹⁵ And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to the whole creation.

¹² For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek: for the same `Lord' is Lord of all, and is rich unto all that call upon him:

¹³ for, Whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

¹⁴ How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?

¹⁵ and how shall they preach, except they be sent? even as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that bring glad tidings of good things!

¹⁶ But they did not all hearken to the glad tidings. For Isaiah saith, Lord, who hath believed our report?

¹⁷ So belief `cometh' of hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ.

¹⁸ But I say, Did they not hear? Yea, verily, Their sound went out into all the earth, And their words unto the ends of the world.

¹⁴ And unto them is fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah, which saith, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall in no wise understand; And seeing ye shall see, and shall in no wise perceive:

¹⁵ For this people's heart is waxed gross, And their ears are dull of hearing, And their eyes they have closed; Lest haply they should perceive with their eyes, And hear with their ears, And understand with their heart, And should turn again, And I should heal them.

¹⁶ But blessed are your eyes, for they see; and your ears, for they hear.

¹⁷ For verily I say unto you, that many prophets and righteous men desired to see the things which ye see, and saw them not; and to hear the things which ye hear, and heard them not.

²⁵ Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour cometh, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God; and they that hear shall live.

³ Incline your ear, and come unto me; hear, and your soul shall live: and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David.

¹³ in whom ye also, having heard the word of the truth, the gospel of your salvation,-- in whom, having also believed, ye were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise,

¹⁴ which is an earnest of our inheritance, unto the redemption of `God's' own possession, unto the praise of his glory.

¹⁵ For this cause I also, having heard of the faith in the Lord Jesus which is among you, and the love which `ye show' toward all the saints,

¹⁰ And he called to him the multitude, and said unto them, Hear, and understand:

⁹ And he said, Go, and tell this people, Hear ye indeed, but understand not; and see ye indeed, but perceive not.

¹⁰ Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they sea with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and turn again, and be healed.

¹¹ Then said I, Lord, how long? And he answered, Until cities be waste without inhabitant, and houses without man, and the land become utterly waste,

²⁸ But he said, Yea rather, blessed are they that hear the word of God, and keep it.

²³ If any man hath ears to hear, let him hear.

²⁴ Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth him that sent me, hath eternal life, and cometh not into judgment, but hath passed out of death into life.

² This only would I learn from you. Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?

³ withal praying for us also, that God may open unto us a door for the word, to speak the mystery of Christ, for which I am also in bonds;

⁴⁴ No man can come to me, except the Father that sent me draw him: and I will raise him up in the last day.

⁴⁵ It is written in the prophets, And they shall all be taught of God. Every one that hath heard from the Father, and hath learned, cometh unto me.

⁴⁶ Not that any man hath seen the Father, save he that is from God, he hath seen the Father.

⁴⁷ Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth hath eternal life.

⁴⁸ I am the bread of life.
