And I am weak today, though anointed king; and these men, the sons of Zeruiah, are too severe for me. Jehovah shall repay the evildoer according to his evil.

The fear of man brings a snare, but whoever puts his trust in Jehovah shall be exalted.

As for me, behold, I am in your hand. Do with me as seems good and right to you.

Then Zedekiah the king said, Behold, he is in your hand. For the king cannot do a thing against you.

So she, having been instructed by her mother, said, Give me here on a platter the head of John the Immerser.

So he sent and had John beheaded in prison.

And the governor said, Why, what evil has He done? But they cried out all the more, saying, Let Him be crucified!

And all the people answered and said, His blood be on us and on our children.

And immediately she came in with haste to the king and asked, saying, I want you to give me on a platter at once the head of John the Immerser.

And immediately the king sent an executioner and commanded his head to be brought. And he went and beheaded him in prison,

Then Pilate said to them, Why, what evil has He done? But they cried out all the more, Crucify Him!

So Pilate, intending to gratify the crowd, released Barabbas to them; and he delivered Jesus, after he had scourged Him, to be crucified.

From then on Pilate sought to release Him, but the Jews cried out, saying, If you let this Man go, you are not Caesar's friend. Everyone making himself a king speaks against Caesar.

Now it was the Preparation Day of the Passover, and about the sixth hour. And he said to the Jews, Behold your King!

Then he delivered Him to them to be crucified. So they took Jesus and led Him away.

But after two years Porcius Festus succeeded Felix; and Felix, wanting to do the Jews a favor, left Paul bound.

But Festus, wanting to do the Jews a favor, answered Paul and said, Are you willing to go up to Jerusalem and there be judged before me concerning these things?

For if I have done wrong, or have committed anything deserving of death, I do not refuse to die; but if there is nothing in these things of which these men accuse me, no one can deliver me to them. I appeal to Caesar.

For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to evil. Do you want to be unafraid of the authority? Do what is good, and you will have praise from the same.

And when he came to the den, he cried with a grieving voice to Daniel. The king spoke and said to Daniel, O Daniel, servant of the living God, your God whom you always serve, is He able to deliver you from the lions?

Now if you are ready, at the time you hear the sound of the horn, the pipe, zither, the lyre, harp, and bagpipe, and all kinds of music, fall down and prostrate yourselves before the image which I have made. But if you do not prostrate yourselves, in that moment you shall be thrown into the middle of a burning fiery furnace. And who is that god who shall deliver you out of my hand?

If it is the case, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and He will deliver us out of your hand, O king.

Nebuchadnezzar spoke and said, Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, who has sent His Angel and has delivered His servants who trusted in Him, and have changed the king's words, and have given their bodies that they might not serve nor prostrate themselves before any god except their own God.

He will deliver you in six troubles; yea, in seven no evil shall touch you:

But the salvation of the righteous is from Jehovah; He is their strength in the time of distress.

And Jehovah will help them and deliver them; He will deliver them from the wicked and save them, because they have trusted in Him.

Because he has set his love upon Me, therefore I will deliver him; I will set him on high, because he has known My name.

With long life I will satisfy him, and show him My salvation.

It is better to trust in Jehovah than to put confidence in man.

It is better to trust in Jehovah than to put confidence in princes.

When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned; nor shall the flame consume you.

For there stood by me this night an angel of God, to whom I belong and whom I serve,

saying, Do not be afraid, Paul; you must be brought before Caesar; and indeed God has granted you all those who sail with you.
