And my seed shall serve him; the generation that is coming shall be reported to the Lord.

And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or lands, for My name's sake, shall receive a hundredfold, and shall inherit eternal life.

So Jesus answered and said, "Assuredly, I say to you, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or fields, for My sake and for the sake of the gospel,

who shall not receive a hundredfold now in this time--houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and fields, along with persecutions--and in the age to come, eternal life.

But such things as were gain to me, these I have considered loss for the sake of Christ.

More than that I also consider all things to be loss for the excellence of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have sustained the loss of all things, and I consider them to be rubbish, in order that I may gain Christ

And you shall say in your heart, Who has begotten me these? Whereas I [was] childless, and a widow; but who has brought up these for me? And I was left alone; but from where did these come to me?

Thus says the Lord, [even] the Lord, Behold, I lift up My hand to the nations, and I will lift up My signal to the islands; and they shall bring your sons in [their] bosom, and shall bear your daughters on [their] shoulders.

Rejoice, you barren that bear not; break forth and cry, you that does not travail; for more are the children of the desolate than of her that has a husband; for the Lord has said,

spread forth [your tent] yet to the right and the left; for your seed shall inherit the Gentiles, and you shall make the desolate cities to be inhabited.

For [it is] the Lord that made you; the Lord of hosts is His name; and He that delivered you, He is the God of Israel, [and] shall be called [so] by the whole earth.

Be enlightened, be enlightened, O Jerusalem, for your light is come, and the glory of the Lord is risen upon you!

And kings shall walk in your light, and nations in your brightness.

Then shall you see, and fear, and be amazed in your heart; for the wealth of the sea shall come round to you, and of nations and peoples; and herds of camels shall come to you,

but the Jerusalem above is free, which is the mother of us all.

For it is written: "Rejoice, O barren, who does not give birth; break forth and shout, who does not have birth pangs; because the children of the desolate are many more than those of her who has a husband."

But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God's [own] possession, that you may proclaim the excellent virtues of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light;

and He made us kings and priests to His God and Father, to Him be the glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.

and have made them kings and priests to our God; and they will reign on the earth."

Blessed and holy is he that has part in the first resurrection. Over these the second death has no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with Him for a thousand years.
