For then I will transform to the peoples a pure language, to call on the name of Jehovah, to serve Him with one purpose.

In this manner, therefore, pray: Our Father in Heaven, Holy is Your name.

Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.

Or what man is there among you who, if his son asks for bread, will give him a stone?

If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in Heaven give good things to those who ask Him!

Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the full true knowledge of Him,

For this reason I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,

for Jehovah your God is God of gods and Lord of lords, the great Mighty God, mighty and awesome, who shows no partiality nor takes a bribe.

Now therefore, let the fear of Jehovah be upon you; take heed and do it, for there is no injustice with Jehovah our God, no partiality, nor taking of bribes.

He is not partial to rulers, nor does He regard the rich more than the poor; for they are all the work of His hands.

And they sent to Him their disciples with the Herodians, saying, Teacher, we know that You are true, and teach the way of God in truth; nor do You care about anyone, for You do not regard the person of men.

Then Peter opened his mouth and said: In truth I perceive that God shows no partiality.

But in every nation whoever fears Him and works righteousness is acceptable to Him.

but glory, honor, and peace to everyone who works what is good, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.

For there is no partiality with God.

But those who seemed to be something (whatever they were, it makes no difference to me; God shows personal regard to no man), those who seemed to be important added nothing to me.

And you, masters, do the same things to them, giving up threatening, knowing that your own Master also is in Heaven, and there is no partiality with Him.

But he who does wrong will be repaid for what he has done, and there is no partiality.

And Jacob said to Pharaoh, The days of the years of my pilgrimage are one hundred and thirty years; few and evil have been the days of the years of my life, and they have not attained to the days of the years of the life of my fathers in the days of their pilgrimage.

For we are strangers and sojourners before You, as were all our fathers; our days on earth are as a shadow, and there is no hope.

Hear my prayer, O Jehovah, and give ear to my cry. Do not be silent at my tears; for I am a stranger with You, a sojourner, as all my fathers were.

These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off were assured of them, embraced them and confessed that they were foreigners and pilgrims on the earth.

And truly if they had called to mind that place from which they had come out, they would have had opportunity to return.

Beloved, I beg you as foreigners and sojourners, abstain from fleshly lusts which war against the soul,

A wise one fears and departs from evil, but the fool rages and is confident.

Blessed is the man who is continually in awe, but he who hardens his heart shall fall into evil.

Well, because of unbelief they were broken off, and you stand by faith. Do not be highminded, but fear.

So we are always confident, knowing that while we are at home in the body we are absent from the Lord.

Therefore, having these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all defilements of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.

For observe this very thing, that you sorrowed in a godly manner: What diligence it produced in you, what clearing of yourselves, what indignation, what fear, what vehement desire, what zeal, what vengeance! In all things you proved yourselves to be clear in this matter.

Therefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, cultivate your salvation with fear and trembling;

Therefore, since a promise remains of entering His rest, let us fear so that none of you should show evidence of falling short.

Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, by which we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear.
