And God said to him: Because you have asked this thing, and have not asked long life for yourself, nor have asked riches for yourself, nor have asked the life of your enemies, but have asked for yourself understanding to discern justice,

And I have also given you what you have not asked: both riches and honor, so that there shall not be anyone like you among the kings all your days.

And Elijah said to her, Do not fear; go and do as you have said, but make me a small cake from it first, and bring it to me; and afterward make some for yourself and your son.

That night God appeared to Solomon, and said to him, Ask what I shall give you.

Now, O Jehovah God, let Your promise to David my father be established, for You have made me king over a people like the dust of the earth for multitude.

And God said to Solomon: Because this was in your heart, and you have not asked riches or wealth or honor or the life of your enemies, nor have you asked long life; but have asked wisdom and knowledge for yourself, that you may judge My people over whom I have made you king;

Thus Hezekiah did throughout all Judah, and he did what was good and right and true before Jehovah his God.

And in every work that he began in the service of the house of God, in the Law and in the commandment, to seek his God, he did it with all his heart, and prospered.

My son, if you will receive my words, and treasure up my commandments within you,

yes, if you cry out for discernment, lifting up your voice for understanding;

then you shall understand the fear of Jehovah, and find the knowledge of God.

He lays up sound wisdom for the upright; a shield to those who walk in integrity,

Then you shall understand righteousness and justice and equity and every good path.

Honor Jehovah with your substance, and with the firstfruits of all your increase,

and your barns shall be filled with plenty, and your vats shall be bursting with new wine.

Thus says Jehovah of Hosts, saying, This people says, The time has not come, the time for the house of Jehovah to be built.

Is it time for you yourselves to live in your paneled houses, and this house to lie waste?

You have sown much, and bring in little; you eat, but do not have enough; you drink, but are not filled with drink; you put on clothes, but no one is warm. And, one hiring himself out earns wages for a bag of holes.

Go up to the mountain and bring wood and build this house. And I will be pleased with it, and I will be glorified, says Jehovah.

On account of this, the heavens above you hold back the dew, and the earth holds back her fruit.

since those days, when one came to a heap of twenty measures, there were but ten. When one came to the wine vat to draw out fifty from the wine trough, there were but twenty.

Now set your heart from this day and forward, from the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, from the day that the foundation of Jehovah's temple was laid. Consider in your heart.

But seek the kingdom of God, and all these things will be conveyed to you.

Do not labor for the food which perishes, but for the food which endures to everlasting life, which the Son of Man will give you, because God the Father has set His seal on Him.

and saying, Repent, for the kingdom of Heaven has drawn near!

From that time Jesus began to preach and to say, Repent, for the kingdom of Heaven has drawn near.

Again, the kingdom of Heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which a man found and hid; and for joy over it he goes and sells everything he has and buys that field.

who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold everything he had and bought it.

And behold now, I know that you all, among whom I have gone preaching the kingdom of God, will see my face no more.

preaching the kingdom of God and teaching the things concerning the Lord Jesus Christ with all confidence, without hindrance.

for the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.

who has delivered us from the authority of darkness and translated us into the kingdom of the Son of His love,

in whom we have redemption through His blood, the remission of sins.

which is manifest evidence of the righteous judgment of God, that you may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which you also suffer;

for so an entrance into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ will be richly supplied to you.

Blessed are those who hunger and thirst after righteousness, for they shall be filled.

One shall say, Only in Jehovah do I have righteousness and strength; to Him men shall come. And they shall be ashamed, all who are angry with Him.

In His days Judah shall be saved, and Israel shall dwell safely. And this is His name by which He shall be called, JEHOVAH, OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS.

And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord, blameless.

For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; even as it is written, The just shall live by faith.

But now the righteousness of God apart from the Law is revealed, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets,

even the righteousness of God, through the faith of Jesus Christ, to all and upon all who believe. For there is no difference;

For they, being ignorant of God's righteousness, and seeking to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted to the righteousness of God.

But out of Him you are in Christ Jesus, who was made for us from God wisdom and righteousness and sanctification and redemption;

For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.

and be found in Him, not having my own righteousness, which is from the Law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is from God by faith;

Simon Peter, a bondservant and apostle of Jesus Christ, to those who have obtained like precious faith with us by the righteousness of our God and Savior Jesus Christ:

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

And if you say, What shall we eat in the seventh year, since we shall not sow nor gather in our produce?

Then I will command My blessing upon you in the sixth year, and it shall produce crops enough for three years.

O fear Jehovah, you His holy ones; for there is nothing lacking to those who fear Him.

The young lions lack and suffer hunger; but those who seek Jehovah shall not lack any good thing.

Trust in Jehovah, and do good; dwell in the land, and feed on faithfulness.

Jehovah knows the days of the upright, and their inheritance shall be forever.

They shall not be ashamed in the evil time, and in the days of famine they shall be satisfied.

I have been young, and now am old; yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread.

For Jehovah God is a sun and shield; Jehovah will give grace and glory; no good thing will He withhold from those who walk in integrity.

O Jehovah of Hosts, blessed is the man who trusts in You!

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

So He said to them, Truly, I say to you, there is no one who has left house or parents or brothers or wife or children, on account of the kingdom of God,

who shall not receive many times more in this present time, and in the age to come eternal life.

What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?

whether Paul or Apollos or Cephas, or the world or life or death, or things present or things to come; all are yours.

For bodily exercise profits a little, but godliness is profitable for all things, having promise of the life that now is and of that which is to come.
