13528 God is the One who has understood its way,And he himself has known its place,

13530 To make a weight for the wind,While he has proportioned the waters themselves by a measure;
13531 When he made for the rain a regulation,And a way for the thunderous storm cloud,

13593 Does he not himself see my waysAnd count even all my steps?
13603 Then what can I do when God rises up?And when he calls for an accounting, what can I answer him?
13607 (For from my youth he grew up with me as with a father,And from the belly of my mother I kept leadi…
13609 If his loins did not bless me,Nor from the shorn wool of my young rams he would warm himself;
13630 So these three men ceased from answering Job, for he was righteous in his own eyes.
13633 And E·li'hu himself had waited for Job with words, because they were older than he was in days.
13643 As he has not arrayed words against me,So with the sayings of YOU men I shall not reply to him.
13661 Look! Occasions for opposition to me he finds,He takes me for an enemy of his.
13664 Why is it against him that you contended,Because all your words he does not answer?
13667 It is then that he uncovers the ear of men,And on exhortation to them he puts his seal,
13668 To turn aside a man from his deed,And that he may cover pride itself from an able-bodied man.
13670 And he is actually reproved with pain upon his bed,And the quarreling of his bones is continual.
13675 Then he favors him and says,'Let him off from going down into the pit!I have found a ransom!
13677 He will make entreaty to God that he may take pleasure in him,And he will see his face with joyful …

13692 And he is certainly on his way to companionship with practicers of what is hurtfulAnd to walking wi…

13698 If he sets his heart upon anyone,[If] that one's spirit and breath he gathers to himself,
13705 For his eyes are upon the ways of man,And all his steps he sees.
13707 For he sets no appointed time for any manTo go to God in judgment.
13708 He breaks powerful ones without any investigation,And he makes others stand up instead of them.
13709 Therefore he recognizes what their works are,And he does overthrow [them] at night, and they get cr…

13733 There they keep crying out, but he does not answer,Because of the pride of the bad ones.
13737 And Job himself opens his mouth wide simply for nothing;Without knowledge he multiplies mere words."
13743 He will not preserve anyone wicked alive,But the judgment of the afflicted ones he will give.
13746 Then he will tell them about the way they actAnd their transgressions, because they take a superior…

13764 For he draws up the drops of water;They filter as rain for his mist,
13767 Look! He has spread out over it his light,And the roots of the sea he has covered.
13768 For by them he pleads the cause of peoples;He gives food in abundance.
13769 In his hands he has covered over the lightning,And he lays a command upon it against an assailant.
13773 Under the whole heavens he lets it loose,And his lightning is to the extremities of the earth.
13774 After it a sound roars;He thunders with the sound of his superiority,And he does not hold them back…
13776 For to the snow he says, 'Fall earthward,'And [to] the downpour of rain, even [to] the downpour of …
13777 On the hand of every earthling man he puts a sealFor every mortal man to know his work.

25664 And as he was entering into a certain village ten leprous men met him, but they stood up afar off.
25666 And when he got sight of them he said to them: "Go and show yourselves to the priests." Then as the…
25667 One of them, when he saw he was healed, turned back, glorifying God with a loud voice.
25668 And he fell upon his face at [Jesus'] feet, thanking him; furthermore, he was a Sa·mar'i·tan.
25671 And he said to him: "Rise and be on your way; your faith has made you well."

25710 Then he said: "All these I have kept from youth on."
25712 When he heard this, he became deeply grieved, for he was very rich.
25720 Then he took the twelve aside and said to them: "Look! We are going up to Jerusalem, and all the th…

25722 and after scourging him they will kill him, but on the third day he will rise."
25724 Now as he was getting near to Jer'i·cho a certain blind man was sitting beside the road begging.
25725 Because he heard a crowd moving through he began to inquire what this might mean.
25727 At that he cried out, saying: "Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!"
25728 And those going in advance began to tell him sternly to keep quiet, but that much more he kept shou…
25729 Then Jesus stood still and commanded the [man] to be led to him. After he got near, [Jesus] asked h…
25732 And instantly he recovered sight, and he began to follow him, glorifying God. Also, all the people,…
25733 And he entered Jer'i·cho and was going through.
25734 Now here there was a man called by the name Zac·chae'us; and he was a chief tax collector, and he w…

25736 So he ran ahead to an advance position and climbed a fig-mulberry tree in order to see him, because…
25737 Now when Jesus got to the place, he looked up and said to him: "Zac·chae'us, hurry and get down, fo…
25738 With that he hurried and got down and with rejoicing he received him as guest.
25739 But when they saw [it], they all fell to muttering, saying: "With a man that is a sinner he went in…
25741 At this Jesus said to him: "This day salvation has come to this house, because he also is a son of …
25743 While they were listening to these things he spoke in addition an illustration, because he was near…
25744 Therefore he said: "A certain man of noble birth traveled to a distant land to secure kingly power …
25745 Calling ten slaves of his he gave them ten mi'nas and told them, 'Do business till I come.'
25747 "Eventually when he got back after having secured the kingly power, he commanded to be called to hi…

25761 And when he got near to Beth'pha·ge and Beth'a·ny at the mountain called Mount of Olives, he sent f…
25764 So those who were sent forth departed and found it just as he said to them.
25768 As he moved along they kept spreading their outer garments on the road.
25769 As soon as he got near the road down the Mount of Olives all the multitude of the disciples started…
25772 But in reply he said: "I tell YOU, If these remained silent, the stones would cry out."
25773 And when he got nearby, he viewed the city and wept over it,
25777 And he entered into the temple and started to throw out those who were selling,
25779 Furthermore, he went teaching daily in the temple. But the chief priests and the scribes and the pr…

25821 In turn he said to them: "How is it they say that the Christ is David's son?
25824 David, therefore, calls him 'Lord'; so how is he his son?"
25825 Then, while all the people were listening he said to the disciples:
25828 Now as he looked up he saw the rich dropping their gifts into the treasury chests.
25829 Then he saw a certain needy widow drop two small coins of very little value there,
25830 and he said: "I tell YOU truthfully, This widow, although poor, dropped in more than they all did.
25833 he said: "As for these things that YOU are beholding, the days will come in which not a stone upon …

25878 So they departed and found it just as he had said to them, and they got the passover ready.
25879 At length when the hour came, he reclined at the table, and the apostles with him.
25880 And he said to them: "I have greatly desired to eat this passover with YOU before I suffer;
25882 And, accepting a cup, he gave thanks and said: "Take this and pass it from one to the other among y…
25884 Also, he took a loaf, gave thanks, broke it, and gave it to them, saying: "This means my body which…

25904 On going out he went as customarily to the Mount of Olives; and the disciples also followed him.
25905 Having come to the place he said to them: "Carry on prayer, that YOU do not enter into temptation."
25906 And he himself drew away from them about a stone's throw, and bent his knees and began to pray,
25909 But getting into an agony he continued praying more earnestly; and his sweat became as drops of blo…
25910 And he rose from prayer, went to the disciples and found them slumbering from grief;
