¹⁶⁵ Abundant peace have those loving Thy law, And they have no stumbling-block.

¹⁷ And a work of the righteousness hath been peace, And a service of the righteousness -- Keeping quiet and confidence unto the age.

¹⁰ he who is loving his brother, in the light he doth remain, and a stumbling-block in him there is not;

⁶ Wherefore, also, it is contained in the Writing: `Lo, I lay in Zion a chief corner-stone, choice, precious, and he who is believing on him may not be put to shame;'

⁷ to you, then, who are believing `is' the preciousness; and to the unbelieving, a stone that the builders disapproved of, this one did become for the head of a corner,

⁸ and a stone of stumbling and a rock of offence -- who are stumbling at the word, being unbelieving, -- to which also they were set;

⁷ and the peace of God, that is surpassing all understanding, shall guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus.

¹⁵ for in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth anything, nor uncircumcision, but a new creation;

¹⁶ and as many as by this rule do walk -- peace upon them, and kindness, and on the Israel of God!

²² And the fruit of the Spirit is: Love, joy, peace, long-suffering, kindness, goodness, faith,

²³ meekness, temperance: against such there is no law;

²⁷ `Peace I leave to you; my peace I give to you, not according as the world doth give do I give to you; let not your heart be troubled, nor let it be afraid;

²⁴ for there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and they shall give great signs and wonders, so as to lead astray, if possible, also the chosen.

²¹ and he hath not root in himself, but is temporary, and persecution or tribulation having happened because of the word, immediately he is stumbled.

²¹ There is no peace, said my God, to the wicked!

¹⁴ And he hath said, `Raise up, raise up, prepare a way, Lift a stumbling-block out of the way of My people.'

¹³ And to whom a word of Jehovah hath been, Rule on rule, rule on rule, line on line, line on line, A little here, a little there, So that they go and have stumbled backward, And been broken, and snared, and captured.

³ An imagination supported Thou fortifiest peace -- peace! For in Thee it is confident.

¹³ Jehovah of Hosts -- Him ye do sanctify, And He `is' your Fear, and He your Dread,

¹⁴ And He hath been for a sanctuary, And for a stone of stumbling, and for a rock of falling, To the two houses of Israel, For a gin and for a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

¹⁵ And many among them have stumbled and fallen, And been broken, and snared, and captured.

²³ Then thou goest thy way confidently, And thy foot doth not stumble.

¹⁷ Her ways `are' ways of pleasantness, And all her paths `are' peace.

¹ My son! my law forget not, And my commands let thy heart keep,

² For length of days and years, Life and peace they do add to thee.
