Graça
1 A Song of Ascents. Out of the depths I have cried to you, O Yahweh.
2 Lord, hear my voice: Let your ears be attentive To the voice of my supplications.
18 And therefore Yahweh will wait, that he may be gracious to you{}; and therefore he will be exalted, that he may have mercy on you{}: for Yahweh is a God of justice; blessed are all those who wait for him.
13 Therefore girding up the loins of your{} mind, be sober and set your{} hope perfectly on the grace that is to be brought to you{} at the revelation of Jesus Christ;
25 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your{} spirit.
6 Surely goodness and loving-kindness will follow me all the days of my life; And I will dwell in the house of Yahweh 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 Yahweh at Jerusalem, to keep the Passover to Yahweh, the God of Israel.
2 For the king had taken counsel, and his princes, and all the assembly in Jerusalem, to keep the Passover in the second month.
3 For they could not keep it at that time, because the priests had not sanctified themselves in sufficient number, neither had the people gathered themselves together to Jerusalem.
4 And the thing was right in the eyes of the king and of all the assembly.
5 So they established a decree to make proclamation throughout all Israel, from Beer-sheba even to Dan, that they should come to keep the Passover to Yahweh, the God of Israel, at Jerusalem: for they had not kept it in great numbers in such sort as it is written.
6 So the posts went with the letters from the king and his princes throughout all Israel and Judah, and according to the commandment of the king, saying, You{+} sons of Israel, turn again to Yahweh, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, that he may return to the remnant that have escaped of you{+} out of the hand of the kings of Assyria.
7 And don't be{+} like your{+} fathers, and like your{+} brothers, who trespassed against Yahweh, the God of their fathers, so that he gave them up to desolation, as you{+} see.
8 Now don't be{+} stiff-necked, as your{+} fathers were; but yield yourselves to Yahweh, and enter into his sanctuary, which he has sanctified forever, and serve Yahweh your{+} God, that his fierce anger may turn away from you{+}.
9 For if you{+} turn again to Yahweh, your{+} brothers and your{+} sons will find compassion before those who led them captive, and will come again into this land: for Yahweh your{+} God is gracious and merciful, and will not turn away his face from you{+}, if you{+} return to him.
10 So the posts passed from city to city through the country of Ephraim and Manasseh, even to Zebulun: but they laughed them to scorn, and mocked them.
11 Nevertheless certain men of Asher and Manasseh and of Zebulun humbled themselves, and came to Jerusalem.
12 Also on Judah came the hand of God to give them one heart, to do the commandment of the king and of the princes by the word of Yahweh.
13 And there assembled at Jerusalem many people to keep the feast of unleavened bread in the second month, a very great assembly.
14 And they arose and took away the altars that were in Jerusalem, and all the altars for incense they took away, and cast them into the brook Kidron.
15 Then they killed the Passover on the fourteenth [day] of the second month: and the priests and the Levites were ashamed, and sanctified themselves, and brought burnt-offerings into the house of Yahweh.
16 And they stood in their place after their order, according to the law of Moses the man of God: the priests sprinkled the blood [which they received] of the hand of the Levites.
17 For there were many in the assembly that had not sanctified themselves: therefore the Levites had the charge of killing the passovers for everyone who was not clean, to sanctify them to Yahweh.
18 For a multitude of the people, even many of Ephraim and Manasseh, Issachar and Zebulun, had not cleansed themselves, yet they ate the Passover otherwise than it is written. For Hezekiah had prayed for them, saying, The good Yahweh pardon everyone
19 that sets his heart to seek God, Yahweh, the God of his fathers, though [he is] not [cleansed] according to the purification of the sanctuary.
20 And Yahweh listened to Hezekiah, and healed the people.
21 And the sons of Israel who were present at Jerusalem kept the feast of unleavened bread seven days with great gladness; and the Levites and the priests praised Yahweh day by day, [singing] with loud instruments to Yahweh.
22 And Hezekiah spoke comfortably to all the Levites that had good understanding [in the service] of Yahweh. So they ate throughout the feast for the seven days, offering sacrifices of peace-offerings, and making confession to Yahweh, the God of their fathers.
23 And the whole assembly took counsel to keep another seven days; and they kept [another] seven days with gladness.
24 For Hezekiah king of Judah gave to the assembly for offerings a thousand bullocks and seven thousand sheep; and the princes gave to the assembly a thousand bullocks and ten thousand sheep: and a great number of priests sanctified themselves.
25 And all the assembly of Judah, with the priests and the Levites, and all the assembly that came out of Israel, and the sojourners that came out of the land of Israel, and that dwelt in Judah, rejoiced.
26 So there was great joy in Jerusalem; for since the time of Solomon the son of David king of Israel there was not the like in Jerusalem.
27 Then the Levitical priests arose and blessed the people: and their voice was heard, and their prayer came up to his holy habitation, even to heaven.
9 who 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 to us in Christ Jesus before eternal times,
14 For sin will 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 on him should not perish, but have eternal life.
24 But I don't hold my life of any account as dear to myself, so that I may accomplish my course, and the service which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify the good news of the grace of God.
21 that, as sin reigned in death, even so might grace reign through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
8 Yahweh is merciful and gracious, Slow to anger, and abundant in loving-kindness.
10 And the God of all grace, who called you{} to his eternal glory in Christ Jesus, after you{} have suffered a little while, will himself restore, establish, strengthen, [and] firmly set [you{}].
4 but God, being rich in mercy, for his great love with which he loved us,
5 even when we were dead through our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ, (by grace you{} have been saved)
8 for by grace you{} have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, [it is] the gift of God;
9 not of works, that no man should boast.
21 The grace of the Lord Jesus be with all.
13 He who covers his transgressions will not prosper: But whoever confesses and forsakes them will obtain mercy.
11 For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to all men,
12 instructing us, to the intent that, denying ungodliness and worldly desires, we should live soberly and righteously and godly in this present age;
24 Yahweh bless you, and keep you:
25 Yahweh make his face to shine on you, and be gracious to you:
26 Yahweh lift up his countenance on you, and give you peace.
17 And let the favor of the Lord our God be on us; And establish the work of our hands on us; Yes, the work of our hands establish it.
23 for all have sinned, and fall short of the glory of God;
24 being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:
15 But not as the trespass, so also [is] the gift. For if by the trespass of the one the many died, much more did the grace of God, and the gift by the grace of the one man, Jesus Christ, abound to the many.
14 Woe [to you{}], when all men will speak well of you{}! For in the same manner their fathers did to the false prophets.
16 Let us therefore draw near with boldness to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy, and may find grace to help [us] in time of need.
15 What then? Shall we sin, because we are not under law, but under grace? God forbid.
