¹⁴ I know that whatever God does, it shall be forever. Nothing can be added to it, nor anything taken from it; and God has done it, that men should fear before him.

¹¹ I have hidden your word in my heart, That I might not sin against you.

¹⁹ and to know Christ's love which surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.

³ For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior;

⁴ who desires all people to be saved and come to full knowledge of the truth.

⁵ For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus,

²⁰ knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of private interpretation.

²¹ For no prophecy ever came by the will of man: but holy men of God spoke, being moved by the Holy Spirit.

¹⁸ For most assuredly, I tell you, until heaven and earth pass away, not even one smallest letter{literally, iota} or one tiny pen stroke{or, serif} shall in any way pass away from the law, until all things are accomplished.

¹ God, having in the past spoken to the fathers through the prophets at many times and in various ways,

² has at the end of these days spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, through whom also he made the worlds.

³ His Son is the radiance of his glory, the very image of his substance, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself made purification for our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;

⁴ having become so much better than the angels, as he has inherited a more excellent name than they have.

¹ > The heavens declare the glory of God. The expanse shows his handiwork.

² Day after day they pour forth speech, And night after night they display knowledge.

³ There is no speech nor language, Where their voice is not heard.

⁴ Their voice has gone out through all the earth, Their words to the end of the world. In them he has set a tent for the sun,

⁵ Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, Like a strong man rejoicing to run his course.

⁶ His going forth is from the end of the heavens, His circuit to its ends; There is nothing hidden from its heat.

⁷ Yahweh's law is perfect, restoring the soul. Yahweh's testimony is sure, making wise the simple.

⁸ Yahweh's precepts are right, rejoicing the heart. Yahweh's commandment is pure, enlightening the eyes.

⁹ The fear of Yahweh is clean, enduring forever. Yahweh's ordinances are true, and righteous altogether.

⁸ But what does it say? "The word is near you, in your mouth, and in your heart;" that is, the word of faith, which we preach:

⁴ For whatever things were written before were written for our learning, that through patience and through encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope.

²³ having been born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, through the word of God, which lives and remains forever.

²⁴ For, "All flesh is like grass, And all of man's glory like the flower in the grass. The grass withers, and its flower falls;

²⁵ But the Lord's word endures forever." This is the word of good news which was preached to you.

⁶ The words of Yahweh are flawless words, As silver refined in a clay furnace, purified seven times.

⁷ You will keep them, Yahweh, You will preserve them from this generation forever.

⁸ The wicked walk on every side, When what is vile is exalted among the sons of men.

¹⁴ The Word became flesh, and lived among us. We saw his glory, such glory as of the one and only Son of the Father, full of grace and truth.

²⁴ For, "All flesh is like grass, And all of man's glory like the flower in the grass. The grass withers, and its flower falls;

²⁵ But the Lord's word endures forever." This is the word of good news which was preached to you.

⁸ The grass withers, the flower fades; but the word of our God shall stand forever.

³⁵ Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.

¹⁷ So faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

¹⁸ But I say, didn't they hear? Yes, most assuredly, "Their sound went out into all the earth, Their words to the ends of the world."

¹⁹ But I ask, didn't Israel know? First Moses says, "I will provoke you to jealousy with that which is no nation, With a nation void of understanding I will make you angry."
