Psalm 17Psalm 181 Corinthians 11.2-34Psalm 17
2
Let my sentence come forth from thy presence let thine eyes behold the things that are equal.
3
Thou hast proved mine heart thou hast visited [me] in the night thou hast tried me, [and] shalt find nothing I am purposed [that] my mouth shall not transgress.
4
Concerning the works of men, by the word of thy lips I have kept [me from] the paths of the destroyer.
5
Hold up my goings in thy paths, [that] my footsteps slip not.
6
I have called upon thee, for thou wilt hear me, O God: incline thine ear unto me, [and hear] my speech.
7
Shew thy marvellous lovingkindness, O thou that savest by thy right hand them which put their trust [in thee] from those that rise up [against them].
8
Keep me as the apple of the eye, hide me under the shadow of thy wings,
9
From the wicked that oppress me, [from] my deadly enemies, [who] compass me about.
10
They are inclosed in their own fat: with their mouth they speak proudly.
11
They have now compassed us in our steps: they have set their eyes bowing down to the earth
12
Like as a lion [that] is greedy of his prey, and as it were a young lion lurking in secret places.
13
Arise, O LORD, disappoint him, cast him down: deliver my soul from the wicked, [which is] thy sword:
14
From men [which are] thy hand, O LORD, from men of the world, [which have] their portion in [this] life, and whose belly thou fillest with thy hid [treasure]: they are full of children, and leave the rest of their [substance] to their babes.
15
As for me, I will behold thy face in righteousness: I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with thy likeness.
Psalm 18
1
<> I will love thee, O LORD, my strength.
2
The LORD [is] my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer my God, my strength, in whom I will trust my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, [and] my high tower.
3
I will call upon the LORD, [who is worthy] to be praised: so shall I be saved from mine enemies.
4
The sorrows of death compassed me, and the floods of ungodly men made me afraid.
5
The sorrows of hell compassed me about: the snares of death prevented me.
6
In my distress I called upon the LORD, and cried unto my God: he heard my voice out of his temple, and my cry came before him, [even] into his ears.
7
Then the earth shook and trembled the foundations also of the hills moved and were shaken, because he was wroth.
8
There went up a smoke out of his nostrils, and fire out of his mouth devoured: coals were kindled by it.
9
He bowed the heavens also, and came down: and darkness [was] under his feet.
10
And he rode upon a cherub, and did fly: yea, he did fly upon the wings of the wind.
11
He made darkness his secret place his pavilion round about him [were] dark waters [and] thick clouds of the skies.
12
At the brightness [that was] before him his thick clouds passed, hail [stones] and coals of fire.
13
The LORD also thundered in the heavens, and the Highest gave his voice hail [stones] and coals of fire.
14
Yea, he sent out his arrows, and scattered them and he shot out lightnings, and discomfited them.
15
Then the channels of waters were seen, and the foundations of the world were discovered at thy rebuke, O LORD, at the blast of the breath of thy nostrils.
16
He sent from above, he took me, he drew me out of many waters.
17
He delivered me from my strong enemy, and from them which hated me: for they were too strong for me.
18
They prevented me in the day of my calamity: but the LORD was my stay.
19
He brought me forth also into a large place he delivered me, because he delighted in me.
20
The LORD rewarded me according to my righteousness according to the cleanness of my hands hath he recompensed me.
21
For I have kept the ways of the LORD, and have not wickedly departed from my God.
22
For all his judgments [were] before me, and I did not put away his statutes from me.
23
I was also upright before him, and I kept myself from mine iniquity.
24
Therefore hath the LORD recompensed me according to my righteousness, according to the cleanness of my hands in his eyesight.
25
With the merciful thou wilt shew thyself merciful with an upright man thou wilt shew thyself upright
26
With the pure thou wilt shew thyself pure and with the froward thou wilt shew thyself froward.
27
For thou wilt save the afflicted people but wilt bring down high looks.
28
For thou wilt light my candle: the LORD my God will enlighten my darkness.
29
For by thee I have run through a troop and by my God have I leaped over a wall.
30
[As for] God, his way [is] perfect: the word of the LORD is tried: he [is] a buckler to all those that trust in him.
31
For who [is] God save the LORD? or who [is] a rock save our God?
32
[It is] God that girdeth me with strength, and maketh my way perfect.
33
He maketh my feet like hinds' [feet], and setteth me upon my high places.
34
He teacheth my hands to war, so that a bow of steel is broken by mine arms.
35
Thou hast also given me the shield of thy salvation: and thy right hand hath holden me up, and thy gentleness hath made me great.
36
Thou hast enlarged my steps under me, that my feet did not slip.
37
I have pursued mine enemies, and overtaken them: neither did I turn again till they were consumed.
38
I have wounded them that they were not able to rise: they are fallen under my feet.
39
For thou hast girded me with strength unto the battle: thou hast subdued under me those that rose up against me.
40
Thou hast also given me the necks of mine enemies that I might destroy them that hate me.
41
They cried, but [there was] none to save [them: even] unto the LORD, but he answered them not.
42
Then did I beat them small as the dust before the wind: I did cast them out as the dirt in the streets.
43
Thou hast delivered me from the strivings of the people [and] thou hast made me the head of the heathen: a people [whom] I have not known shall serve me.
44
As soon as they hear of me, they shall obey me: the strangers shall submit themselves unto me.
45
The strangers shall fade away, and be afraid out of their close places.
46
The LORD liveth and blessed [be] my rock and let the God of my salvation be exalted.
47
[It is] God that avengeth me, and subdueth the people under me.
48
He delivereth me from mine enemies: yea, thou liftest me up above those that rise up against me: thou hast delivered me from the violent man.
49
Therefore will I give thanks unto thee, O LORD, among the heathen, and sing praises unto thy name.
50
Great deliverance giveth he to his king and sheweth mercy to his anointed, to David, and to his seed for evermore.
1 Corinthians 11
2-34
2
Now I praise you, brethren, that ye remember me in all things, and keep the ordinances, as I delivered [them] to you.
3
But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ and the head of the woman [is] the man and the head of Christ [is] God.
4
Every man praying or prophesying, having [his] head covered, dishonoureth his head.
5
But every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with [her] head uncovered dishonoureth her head: for that is even all one as if she were shaven.
6
For if the woman be not covered, let her also be shorn: but if it be a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be covered.
7
For a man indeed ought not to cover [his] head, forasmuch as he is the image and glory of God: but the woman is the glory of the man.
8
For the man is not of the woman but the woman of the man.
9
Neither was the man created for the woman but the woman for the man.
10
For this cause ought the woman to have power on [her] head because of the angels.
11
Nevertheless neither is the man without the woman, neither the woman without the man, in the Lord.
12
For as the woman [is] of the man, even so [is] the man also by the woman but all things of God.
13
Judge in yourselves: is it comely that a woman pray unto God uncovered?
14
Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him?
15
But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for [her] hair is given her for a covering.
16
But if any man seem to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither the churches of God.
17
Now in this that I declare [unto you] I praise [you] not, that ye come together not for the better, but for the worse.
18
For first of all, when ye come together in the church, I hear that there be divisions among you and I partly believe it.
19
For there must be also heresies among you, that they which are approved may be made manifest among you.
20
When ye come together therefore into one place, [this] is not to eat the Lord's supper.
21
For in eating every one taketh before [other] his own supper: and one is hungry, and another is drunken.
22
What? have ye not houses to eat and to drink in? or despise ye the church of God, and shame them that have not? What shall I say to you? shall I praise you in this? I praise [you] not.
23
For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, That the Lord Jesus the [same] night in which he was betrayed took bread:
24
And when he had given thanks, he brake [it], and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me.
25
After the same manner also [he took] the cup, when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink [it], in remembrance of me.
26
For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord's death till he come.
27
Wherefore whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink [this] cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.
28
But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of [that] bread, and drink of [that] cup.
29
For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord's body.
30
For this cause many [are] weak and sickly among you, and many sleep.
31
For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged.
32
But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world.
33
Wherefore, my brethren, when ye come together to eat, tarry one for another.
34
And if any man hunger, let him eat at home that ye come not together unto condemnation. And the rest will I set in order when I come.
