And they shall know that I am the Lord, when I shall scatter them among the nations, and disperse them in the countries.

And I will bring you out from the people, and will gather you out of the countries wherein ye are scattered, with a mighty hand, and with a stretched out arm, and with fury poured out.

I will accept you with your sweet savour, when I bring you out from the people, and gather you out of the countries wherein ye have been scattered; and I will be sanctified in you before the heathen.

And I will scatter thee among the heathen, and disperse thee in the countries, and will consume thy filthiness out of thee.

Thus saith the Lord God; When I shall have gathered the house of Israel from the people among whom they are scattered, and shall be sanctified in them in the sight of the heathen, then shall they dwell in their land that I have given to my servant Jacob.

And I scattered them among the heathen, and they were dispersed through the countries: according to their way and according to their doings I judged them.

James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad, greeting.

I will scatter them also among the heathen, whom neither they nor their fathers have known: and I will send a sword after them, till I have consumed them.

Hear the word of the Lord, O ye nations, and declare it in the isles afar off, and say, He that scattered Israel will gather him, and keep him, as a shepherd doth his flock.

And I will scatter you among the heathen, and will draw out a sword after you: and your land shall be desolate, and your cities waste.

And not for that nation only, but that also he should gather together in one the children of God that were scattered abroad.

Remember, I beseech thee, the word that thou commandedst thy servant Moses, saying, If ye transgress, I will scatter you abroad among the nations:

And he will scourge us for our iniquities, and will have mercy again, and will gather us out of all nations, among whom he hath scattered us.

Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts,

Reprove not a scorner, lest he hate thee: rebuke a wise man, and he will love thee.

A scorner seeketh wisdom, and findeth it not: but knowledge is easy unto him that understandeth.

Judgments are prepared for scorners, and stripes for the back of fools.

Cast out the scorner, and contention shall go out; yea, strife and reproach shall cease.

Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.

For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.

All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:

The Lord gave the word: great was the company of those that published it.

For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope.

Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity.

And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.

And the Lord said unto him, Go through the midst of the city, through the midst of Jerusalem, and set a mark upon the foreheads of the men that sigh and that cry for all the abominations that be done in the midst thereof.

Bind up the testimony, seal the law among my disciples.

Mark the perfect man, and behold the upright: for the end of that man is peace.

And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree; but only those men which have not the seal of God in their foreheads.

Call to remembrance what acts our fathers did in their time; so shall ye receive great honour and an everlasting name.

Remember the days of old, consider the years of many generations: ask thy father, and he will shew thee; thy elders, and they will tell thee.

Look at the generations of old, and see; did ever any trust in the Lord, and was confounded? or did any abide in his fear, and was forsaken? or whom did he ever despise, that called upon him?

He declareth the things that are past, and for to come, and revealeth the steps of hidden things.

For enquire, I pray thee, of the former age, and prepare thyself to the search of their fathers:

For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope.

And they shall go forth, and look upon the carcases of the men that have transgressed against me: for their worm shall not die, neither shall their fire be quenched; and they shall be an abhorring unto all flesh.

And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.

They shall see him, and despise him; but God shall laugh them to scorn: and they shall hereafter be a vile carcass, and a reproach among the dead for evermore.

The secret things belong unto the Lord our God: but those things which are revealed belong unto us and to our children for ever, that we may do all the words of this law.

And I will give thee the treasures of darkness, and hidden riches of secret places, that thou mayest know that I, the Lord, which call thee by thy name, am the God of Israel.

He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

Thou art my hiding place and my shield: I hope in thy word.

Of this man's seed hath God according to his promise raised unto Israel a Saviour, Jesus:

Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ.

For verily he took not on him the nature of angels; but he took on him the seed of Abraham.

And if any man's seed of copulation go out from him, then he shall wash all his flesh in water, and be unclean until the even.

Beware of all whoredom, my son, and chiefly take a wife of the seed of thy fathers, and take not a strange woman to wife, which is not of thy father's tribe: for we are the children of the prophets, Noe, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob: remember, my son, that our fathers from the beginning, even that they all married wives of their own kindred, and were blessed in their children, and their seed shall inherit the land.

Be in peace with many: nevertheless have but one counsellor of a thousand.

Do nothing without advice; and when thou hast once done, repent not.

Neither consult with a woman touching her of whom she is jealous; neither with a coward in matters of war; nor with a merchant concerning exchange; nor with a buyer of selling; nor with an envious man of thankfulness; nor with an unmerciful man touching kindness; nor with the slothful for any work; nor with an hireling for a year of finishing work; nor with an idle servant of much business: hearken not unto these in any matter of counsel.

Let reason go before every enterprize, and counsel before every action.

Gold and silver make the foot stand sure: but counsel is esteemed above them both.

Where no counsel is, the people fall: but in the multitude of counsellors there is safety.

Without counsel purposes are disappointed: but in the multitude of counsellors they are established.

Every purpose is established by counsel: and with good advice make war.

For by wise counsel thou shalt make thy war: and in multitude of counsellors there is safety.

Ask counsel of all that are wise, and despise not any counsel that is profitable.

And he did evil, because he prepared not his heart to seek the Lord.

And commanded Judah to seek the Lord God of their fathers, and to do the law and the commandment.

For as it was your mind to go astray from God: so, being returned, seek him ten times more.

But if from thence thou shalt seek the Lord thy God, thou shalt find him, if thou seek him with all thy heart and with all thy soul.

But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

I will go and return to my place, till they acknowledge their offence, and seek my face: in their affliction they will seek me early.

Seek ye the Lord while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:

And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.

I love them that love me; and those that seek me early shall find me.

The wicked, through the pride of his countenance, will not seek after God: God is not in all his thoughts.

Seek ye the Lord, all ye meek of the earth, which have wrought his judgment; seek righteousness, seek meekness: it may be ye shall be hid in the day of the Lord's anger.

Use not many words in a multitude of elders, and make not much babbling when thou prayest.

When thou sittest among many, reach not thine hand out first of all.

Speak, young man, if there be need of thee: and yet scarcely when thou art twice asked.

Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.

He that hath no rule over his own spirit is like a city that is broken down, and without walls.

At that time therefore they decreed, saying, Whosoever shall come to make battle with us on the sabbath day, we will fight against him; neither will we die all, as our brethren that were murdered in the secret places.

Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one.

For thou didst separate them from among all the people of the earth, to be thine inheritance, as thou spakest by the hand of Moses thy servant, when thou broughtest our fathers out of Egypt, O Lord God.

Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you.

When the Most High divided to the nations their inheritance, when he separated the sons of Adam, he set the bounds of the people according to the number of the children of Israel.

For in the division of the nations of the whole earth he set a ruler over every people; but Israel is the Lord's portion:

But against any of the children of Israel shall not a dog move his tongue, against man or beast: that ye may know how that the Lord doth put a difference between the Egyptians and Israel.

Now therefore make confession unto the Lord God of your fathers, and do his pleasure: and separate yourselves from the people of the land, and from the strange wives.

Flee out of the midst of Babylon, and deliver every man his soul: be not cut off in her iniquity; for this is the time of the Lord's vengeance; he will render unto her a recompence.

But I have said unto you, Ye shall inherit their land, and I will give it unto you to possess it, a land that floweth with milk and honey: I am the Lord your God, which have separated you from other people.

And ye shall be holy unto me: for I the Lord am holy, and have severed you from other people, that ye should be mine.

And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats:

And the seed of Israel separated themselves from all strangers, and stood and confessed their sins, and the iniquities of their fathers.

And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.

Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, "Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?"

And the Lord God said unto the serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou art cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life:

Their wine is the poison of dragons, and the cruel venom of asps.

Who will pity a charmer that is bitten with a serpent, or any such as come nigh wild beasts?

Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell?

They shall lick the dust like a serpent, they shall move out of their holes like worms of the earth: they shall be afraid of the Lord our God, and shall fear because of thee.

Their poison is like the poison of a serpent: they are like the deaf adder that stoppeth her ear;

And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.

And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:
