And Hazael said, Why does my lord weep? And he said, Because I know all the evil that you will do to the children of Israel: you will utterly destroy their strongholds with fire, and you will slay their choice men with the sword, and you will dash their infants [against the ground], and their women with child you will rip up.

And Hazael said, Who is your servant? A dead dog, that he should do this thing? And Elisha said, The Lord has shown me that you [shall] rule over Syria.

He that trusts to a bold heart, such a one is a fool: but he that walks in wisdom shall be safe.

I know, O Lord, that man's way is not his own; neither shall a man go, and direct his going.

But Jesus answered and said, "You do not know what you ask. Are you able to drink the cup which I am about to drink, or to be baptized [with] the baptism that I am baptized with?" They said to Him, "We are able."

Peter answered and said to Him, "Even if all are made to stumble because of You, yet I will never be made to stumble."

Peter said to Him, "Even if I have to die with You, by no means will I deny You!" And likewise said all the disciples.

But he kept saying all the more profusely, "If it is necessary for me to die with You, by no means will I deny You!" And they all said likewise.

Then He came and found them sleeping, and He said to Peter, "Simon, are you sleeping? Were you not strong [enough] to watch one hour?

Simon Peter said to Him, "Lord, where are You going?" Jesus answered him, "Where I am going you cannot follow Me now, but later you will follow Me."

Peter said to Him, "Lord, why can I not follow You now? I will lay down my life for You."

except that the Holy Spirit in every city is solemnly bearing witness, saying that bonds and tribulations are waiting for me.

But I count myself as nothing; nor do I regard my life as valuable to myself, so that I may complete my course with joy, and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to bear solemn testimony to the gospel of the grace of God.

Then Paul answered, "What do you mean by weeping and breaking my heart? For I am ready not only to be bound, but also to die at Jerusalem, in behalf of the name of the Lord Jesus."
