But the hypocrites in heart store up wrath; they do not cry for help when He has bound them.

Thus Saul died for his unfaithfulness which he had transgressed against Jehovah, because he had not kept the Word of Jehovah, and because he asked counsel to seek after a medium.

He had not inquired after Jehovah; therefore He killed him, and turned the kingdom over to David the son of Jesse.

And in the time of his distress he became increasingly unfaithful to Jehovah; this King Ahaz.

For he sacrificed to the gods of Damascus which had struck him, saying, Because the gods of the kings of Syria help them, I will sacrifice to them that they may help me. But they were the ruin of him and of all Israel.

And they shall pass through it, hard-pressed and hungry; and it shall come to pass that when they shall be hungry, that they shall be enraged and curse their king and their God, and look upward.

Remember now your Creator in the days of your youth, so that the evil days do not come, nor the years draw near, when you shall say, I have no pleasure in them.

And you forget Jehovah your Maker, who has stretched out the heavens and laid the foundations of the earth. And you dread continually, every day, because of the fury of the oppressor, as if he were ready to destroy. And where is the fury of the oppressor?

Therefore let those who suffer according to the will of God commit their souls to Him in doing good, as to a faithful Creator.

For I do not know how to flatter, else my Maker would soon take me away.

I will take away my knowledge from afar; I will ascribe righteousness to my Maker.

For your Maker is your husband; Jehovah of Hosts is His name; and your Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel. He shall be called, GOD OF THE WHOLE EARTH.

Jehovah will command His lovingkindness in the daytime, and in the night His song shall be with me, my prayer to the Mighty God of my life.

I call to remembrance my song in the night; I meditate within my heart, and my spirit makes diligent search.

At midnight I will rise to give thanks to You, because of Your righteous judgments.

Let the saints be joyful in glory; let them shout aloud upon their beds.

And at midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the prisoners were listening to them.
