⁹ If I say, I will not make mention of him, nor speak any more in his name, then there is in my heart as it were a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I am weary with forbearing, and I can't [contain].

³ My heart was hot within me. While I meditated, the fire burned: I spoke with my tongue:

¹⁸ For I am full of words. The spirit within me constrains me.

¹⁹ Behold, my breast is as wine which has no vent; Like new wineskins it is ready to burst.

²⁰ I will speak, that I may be refreshed. I will open my lips and answer.

²⁰ for we can't help telling the things which we saw and heard."

¹⁴ So the Spirit lifted me up, and took me away; and I went in bitterness, in the heat of my spirit; and the hand of Yahweh was strong on me.

¹¹ Therefore I am full of the wrath of Yahweh; I am weary with holding in: pour it out on the children in the street, and on the assembly of young men together; for even the husband with the wife shall be taken, the aged with him who is full of days.

¹⁶ Now while Paul waited for them at Athens, his spirit was provoked within him as he saw the city full of idols.

¹³ For if we are beside ourselves, it is for God. Or if we are of sober mind, it is for you.

¹⁴ For the love of Christ constrains us; because we judge thus, that one died for all, therefore all died.

¹⁵ He died for all, that those who live should no longer live to themselves, but to him who for their sakes died and rose again.

⁶² But Jesus said to him, "No one, having put his hand to the plow, and looking back, is fit for the Kingdom of God."

³ When he saw that, he arose, and went for his life, and came to Beersheba, which belongs to Judah, and left his servant there.

⁴ But he himself went a day's journey into the wilderness, and came and sat down under a juniper tree: and he requested for himself that he might die, and said, It is enough; now, O Yahweh, take away my life; for I am not better than my fathers.

⁵ But when Silas and Timothy came down from Macedonia, Paul was compelled by the Spirit, testifying to the Jews that Jesus was the Christ.

³⁷ Barnabas planned to take John, who was called Mark, with them also.

³⁸ But Paul didn't think that it was a good idea to take with them someone who had withdrawn from them in Pamphylia, and didn't go with them to do the work.

² (although Jesus himself didn't baptize, but his disciples),

³ he left Judea, and departed into Galilee.

² The same was in the beginning with God.

³ All things were made through him. Without him was not anything made that has been made.

¹⁶ For if I preach the Gospel, I have nothing to boast about; for necessity is laid on me; but woe is to me, if I don't preach the Gospel.

¹⁷ For if I do this of my own will, I have a reward. But if not of my own will, I have a stewardship entrusted to me.
