⁷ And though your start was small, your end will be very great.

¹² And the Lord's blessing was greater on the end of Job's life than on its start: and so he came to have fourteen thousand sheep and goats, and six thousand camels, and two thousand oxen, and a thousand she-asses.

¹³ And he had seven sons and three daughters.

¹⁸ But the way of the upright is like the light of early morning, getting brighter and brighter till the full day.

¹⁰ For who has had a poor opinion of the day of small things? for they will be glad when they see the weighted measuring-line in the hand of Zerubbabel. Then he said in answer to me, These seven lights are the eyes of the Lord which go quickly up and down through all the earth.

³¹ He put another story before them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is like a grain of mustard seed which a man took and put in his field:

³² Which is smaller than all seeds; but when it has come up it is greater than the plants, and becomes a tree, so that the birds of heaven come and make their resting-places in its branches.

¹⁶ Who gave you manna for your food in the waste land, a food which your fathers had never seen; so that your pride might be broken and your hearts tested for your good in the end;

²⁰ Let your ear be open to suggestion and take teaching, so that at the end you may be wise.

⁷ And it will be unbroken day, such as the Lord has knowledge of, without change of day and night, and even at nightfall it will be light.

¹² Because whoever has, to him will be given, and he will have more; but from him who has not, even what he has will be taken away.
