1 A Song of degrees. Out of the depths I have cried to You, O LORD.
2 Lord, hear my voice, and let Your ears listen to the voice of My prayers.
18 And so the LORD waits to be gracious to you. And therefore He is exalted, that He may have mercy on you. For the LORD [is] a God of judgment; blessed [are] all those who wait for Him.
13 Therefore girding up the loins of your mind, being sober, perfectly hope for the grace being brought to you at [the] revelation of Jesus Christ,
25 May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [be] with your spirit. Amen.
9 who has saved us and called [us] with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to His own purpose and grace which was given us in Christ Jesus before the eternal times.
24 But none of these things move me, neither do I count my life dear to myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus [Christ], to testify fully the gospel of the grace of God.
10 But the God of all grace, He calling us to His eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a little, [He] will perfect, confirm, strengthen, and establish [you].
21 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [be] with all of you. Amen.
24 The LORD bless you and keep you.
25 The LORD make His face shine upon you and be gracious to you.
26 The LORD lift up His face to you and give you peace.
6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life; and I shall dwell in the house of the LORD forever.
1 And Hezekiah sent to all Israel and Judah, and wrote letters also to Ephraim and Manasseh, that they should come to the house of the LORD at Jerusalem, to keep the Passover to the LORD God of Israel.
2 And the king and his leaders, and all the congregation in Jerusalem, took counsel to keep the Passover in the second month.
3 For they could not keep it at that time, because the priests had not made themselves pure enough, nor had the people gathered to Jerusalem.
4 And the thing pleased the king and all the congregation.
5 And they established a decree to send a notice throughout all Israel, from Beer-sheba even to Dan, that they should come to keep the Passover to the LORD God of Israel at Jerusalem. For not many [of them] had done as it was written.
6 And the runners went with the letters from the king and his rulers to Israel and Judah, and according to the command of the king, saying, O sons of Israel, turn again to the LORD God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, and He will return to the remnant of you who have escaped out of the hands of the king of Assyria.
7 And do not be like your fathers and like your brothers who sinned against the LORD God of their fathers, and He made them for a horror, as you see.
8 And do not be stiffnecked like your fathers. Yield yourselves to the LORD and enter into His temple which He has sanctified forever. And serve the LORD your God, so that the fierceness of His wrath may turn away from you.
9 For if you turn again to the LORD, your brothers and your sons will have mercies before those who lead them captive, so that they shall come again into this land. For the LORD your God [is] gracious and merciful, and will not turn His face away from you if you return to Him.
10 And the runners passed from city to city in the land of Ephraim and Manasseh, even to Zebulun. But they laughed them to scorn, and mocked them.
11 However, men from Asher and Manasseh and Zebulun humbled themselves and came to Jerusalem.
12 Also in Judah the hand of God was to give them one heart to do the command of the king and of the rulers, by the word of the LORD.
13 And many people gathered at Jerusalem to keep the Feast of Unleavened [Bread] in the second month, a very great congregation.
14 And they arose and took away the altars in Jerusalem, and all the altars for incense they took away, and threw [them] into the torrent Kidron.
15 And they killed the Passover on the fourteenth of the second month. And the priests and the Levites were ashamed and made themselves pure, and brought in the burnt offerings into the house of the LORD.
16 And they stood in their place in their manner, according to the law of Moses the man of God. The priests sprinkled the blood from the hand of the Levites.
17 For many in the congregation [were] not sanctified. And the Levites were over the killing of the passovers for every one [who was] not clean, to sanctify them to the LORD.
18 For many of the people, many from Ephraim and Manasseh, Issachar and Zebulun, had not been cleansed, but ate the Passover otherwise than it was written. But Hezekiah prayed for them, saying, May the good LORD pardon everyone
19 [who] prepares his heart to seek God, the LORD God of his fathers, though not [cleansed] according to the purification of the sanctuary.
20 And the LORD listened to Hezekiah and healed the people.
21 And the sons of Israel found at Jerusalem kept the Feast of Unleavened [Bread] seven days with great gladness. And the Levites and the priests praised the LORD day by day with loud instruments to the LORD.
22 And Hezekiah spoke comfortably to all the Levites who taught the good knowledge of the LORD. And they ate the appointed things seven days, offering peace offerings and making confession to the LORD God of their fathers.
23 And the whole gathering agreed to keep another seven days. And they kept [another] seven days with gladness.
24 For Hezekiah king of Judah gave to the congregation a thousand bulls and seven thousand sheep. And the rulers gave to the congregation a thousand bulls and ten thousand sheep. And a great number of priests sanctified themselves.
25 And all the congregation of Judah, with the priests and the Levites, and all the congregation that came out of Israel, and the strangers that came out of the land of Israel, and who lived in Judah, rejoiced.
26 And there was great joy in Jerusalem. For from the days of Solomon the son of David the king of Israel [there was] nothing like this in Jerusalem.
27 And the priests, the Levites, arose and blessed the people. And their voice was heard, and their prayer came to His holy dwelling-place, to Heaven.
14 For sin shall not have dominion over you, for you are not under Law, but under grace.
16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only-begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.
21 so that as sin has reigned to death, even so grace might reign through righteousness to eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord.
8 The LORD [is] merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and rich in mercy.
4 But God, who is rich in mercy, for His great love [with] which He loved us
5 (even when we were dead in sins) has made us alive together with Christ (by grace you are saved),
8 For by grace you are saved through faith, and that not of yourselves, [it is] the gift of God,
9 not of works, lest anyone should boast.
13 He who covers his sins shall not be blessed; but whoever confesses and leaves [them] shall have mercy.
11 For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men,
12 teaching us that having denied ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live discreetly, righteously and godly, in this present world,
17 And let the beauty of the LORD our God be on us; and establish the work of our hands on us; yea, the work of our hands, establish it.
15 but the free gift [shall] not [be] also like the offense. For if by the offense of the one many died, much more the grace of God, and the gift in grace; which [is] of the one Man, Jesus Christ, abounded to many.
15 What then? Shall we sin because we are not under Law, but under grace? Let it not be!
16 Therefore let us come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.
23 for all have sinned and come short of the glory of God,
24 being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus;
14 For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you;
