⁶ Seek you Yahweh while he may be found; call you on him while he is near:

¹² You shall call on me, and you shall go and pray to me, and I will listen to you.

¹³ You shall seek me, and find me, when you shall search for me with all your heart.

¹⁴ I will be found by you, says Yahweh, and I will turn again your captivity, and I will gather you from all the nations, and from all the places where I have driven you, says Yahweh; and I will bring you again to the place from where I caused you to be carried away captive.

⁶ For this, let everyone who is godly pray to you in a time when you may be found. Surely when the great waters overflow, they shall not reach to him.

¹⁹ I have not spoken in secret, in a place of the land of darkness; I didn't say to the seed of Jacob, Seek you me in vain: I, Yahweh, speak righteousness, I declare things that are right.

⁶ Seek Yahweh, and you will live; Lest he break out like fire in the house of Joseph, And it devour, and there be no one to quench it in Bethel.

² Yahweh looked down from heaven on the children of men, To see if there were any who did understand, Who did seek after God.

³ how will we escape if we neglect so great a salvation-- which at the first having been spoken through the Lord, was confirmed to us by those who heard;

⁵ If you want to seek God diligently, Make your supplication to the Almighty.

¹ Working together, we entreat also that you not receive the grace of God in vain,

² for he says, "At an acceptable time I listened to you, In a day of salvation I helped you." Behold, now is the acceptable time. Behold, now is the day of salvation.

²⁴ It shall happen that, before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear.

¹⁸ Yahweh is near to all those who call on him, To all who call on him in truth.

⁹ You, Solomon my son, know the God of your father, and serve him with a perfect heart and with a willing mind; for Yahweh searches all hearts, and understands all the imaginations of the thoughts: if you seek him, he will be found of you; but if you forsake him, he will cast you off forever.

⁷ For what great nation is there, that has a god so near to them, as Yahweh our God is whenever we call on him?

¹⁴ He has lifted up the horn of his people, The praise of all his saints; Even of the children of Israel, a people near to him. Praise Yah!

⁸ When you said, "Seek my face," My heart said to you, "I will seek your face, Yahweh."

¹³ I bring near my righteousness, it shall not be far off, and my salvation shall not wait; and I will place salvation in Zion for Israel my glory.

⁷ "Ask, and it will be given you. Seek, and you will find. Knock, and it will be opened for you.

⁸ For everyone who asks receives. He who seeks finds. To him who knocks it will be opened.

³ Nevertheless there are good things found in you, in that you have put away the Asheroth out of the land, and have set your heart to seek God.

³⁵ Jesus therefore said to them, "Yet a little while the light is with you. Walk while you have the light, that darkness doesn't overtake you. He who walks in the darkness doesn't know where he is going.

³⁶ While you have the light, believe in the light, that you may become children of light." Jesus said these things, and he departed and hid himself from them.

⁶ Cry aloud and shout, you inhabitant of Zion; for great in the midst of you is the Holy One of Israel!"

⁷ For he is our God. We are the people of his pasture, And the sheep in his care. Today, oh that you would hear his voice!

¹ > We give thanks to you, God, We give thanks, for your Name is near. Men tell about your wondrous works.

²⁵ When once the master of the house has risen up, and has shut the door, and you begin to stand outside, and to knock at the door, saying, 'Lord, Lord, open to us!' then he will answer and tell you, 'I don't know you or where you come from.'

³³ Then Jesus said, "I will be with you a little while longer, then I go to him who sent me.

³⁴ You will seek me, and won't find me; and where I am, you can't come."

²¹ Jesus said therefore again to them, "I am going away, and you will seek me, and you will die in your sins. Where I go, you can't come."

¹³ Therefore I ask that you may not lose heart at my troubles for you, which are your glory.

¹³ but exhort one another day by day, so long as it is called "today;" lest any one of you be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.

⁸ Thus says Yahweh, In an acceptable time have I answered you, and in a day of salvation have I helped you; and I will preserve you, and give you for a covenant of the people, to raise up the land, to make them inherit the desolate heritage:

⁶ He said to me, Son of man, see you what they do? even the great abominations that the house of Israel do commit here, that I should go far off from my sanctuary? but you shall again see yet other great abominations.

²⁵ Agree with your adversary quickly, while you are with him in the way; lest perhaps the prosecutor deliver you to the judge, and the judge deliver you to the officer, and you be cast into prison.
