Shall the prey be taken from the mighty, or the lawful captive delivered?

But thus says Jehovah, Even the captives of the mighty shall be taken away, and the prey of the ruthless shall escape. For I will contend with him who contends with you, and I will save your children.

Therefore I will apportion to Him with the great, and He shall divide the spoils with the strong; because He has poured out His soul unto death; and He was reckoned among the transgressors; and He bore the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.

And I, if I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all to Myself.

whose minds the god of this age has blinded, who do not believe, so that the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should not shine on them.

having their understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God, because of the ignorance that is in them, because of the hardness of their heart;

For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light

For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against rulers, against authorities, against the world's rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual wickedness in the heavenlies.

But you are an elect race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people of His possession, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light;

But God be thanked that though you were slaves of sin, yet you obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered to you.

I speak in human terms because of the weakness of your flesh. For just as you presented your members as slaves to uncleanness, and to iniquity unto iniquity, so now present your members as slaves to righteousness unto sanctification.

What fruit did you have then in the things of which you are now ashamed? For the end of those things is death.

Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be led astray. Neither prostitutes, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor sodomites,

And such were some of you. But you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus and by the Spirit of our God.

Therefore, Come out from among them and be separate, says the Lord. Do not touch what is unclean, and I will receive you.

And I will be a Father to you, and you shall be My sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty.

among whom also we all formerly conducted ourselves in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, just as the others;

even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you are saved),

that in the ages to come He might display the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward us in Christ Jesus.

not of works, that no one should boast.

that you would walk worthily of God who calls you into His kingdom and glory.

For we ourselves were also once foolish, disobedient, led astray, enslaved to various lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful and hating one another.

not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit,

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

We know that we have passed from death to life, because we love the brethren. He who does not love his brother remains in death.

Yet, I have set My King on My holy hill of Zion.

I will declare the decree: Jehovah has said unto Me, You are My Son; today I have begotten You.

For unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given; and the government shall be upon His shoulder; and His name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, The Strong and Mighty God, The Eternal Father, The Prince of Peace.

Of the increase of His government and peace upon the throne of David there will be no end; and upon His kingdom, to order it and to establish it with judgment and with justice from now on, even forever. The zeal of Jehovah of Hosts will accomplish this.

I saw in the night visions. And behold, one like the Son of Man came with the clouds of the heavens. And He came to the Ancient of Days. And they brought Him near before Him.

Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion! Shout, O daughter of Jerusalem! Behold, your King comes to you! He is righteous and having salvation, lowly, and riding on an ass, even on a colt, the foal of an ass.

Then the King will say to those on His right hand, Come, you blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:

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

But each one in his own order: Christ the firstfruits, afterward those who are Christ's at His coming.

For it is necessary for Him to reign till He has put every enemy under His feet.

Behold My Servant, whom I uphold; My Elect, in whom My soul delights. I have put My Spirit upon Him; He shall bring forth justice to the nations.

And behold a voice out of heaven, saying, This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.

While he was still speaking, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them; and behold a voice came out of the cloud, saying, This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. Hear Him.

The Father loves the Son, and has given all things into His hand.

Father, I desire that they also whom You gave Me may be with Me where I am, that they may behold My glory which You gave Me; for You loved Me before the foundation of the world.

to the praise of the glory of His grace, by which He has made us accepted in the Beloved.
