To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them.

But if they had stood in my counsel, and had caused my people to hear my words, then they should have turned them from their evil way, and from the evil of their doings.

Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers.

Let your speech be alway with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man.

Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath:

If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man's religion is vain.

My brethren, be not many masters, knowing that we shall receive the greater condemnation.

Behold, we put bits in the horses' mouths, that they may obey us; and we turn about their whole body.

Even so the tongue is a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold, how great a matter a little fire kindleth!

This is he, that was in the church in the wilderness with the angel which spake to him in the mount Sina, and with our fathers: who received the lively oracles to give unto us:

Much every way: chiefly, because that unto them were committed the oracles of God.

For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat.

As every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.

Thine, O LORD, is the greatness, and the power, and the glory, and the victory, and the majesty: for all that is in the heaven and in the earth is thine; thine is the kingdom, O LORD, and thou art exalted as head above all.

Now therefore, our God, we thank thee, and praise thy glorious name.

For we are strangers before thee, and sojourners, as were all our fathers: our days on the earth are as a shadow, and there is none abiding.

Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, whether prophecy, let us prophesy according to the proportion of faith;

Or he that exhorteth, on exhortation: he that giveth, let him do it with simplicity; he that ruleth, with diligence; he that sheweth mercy, with cheerfulness.

According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon.

Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.

Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.

For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.

Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God.

Whiles by the experiment of this ministration they glorify God for your professed subjection unto the gospel of Christ, and for your liberal distribution unto them, and unto all men;

Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,

Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.

Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ;

Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.

Being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are by Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God.

And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.

To God only wise, be glory through Jesus Christ for ever. Amen.

Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.

Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen.

Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and power everlasting. Amen.

To the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen.

And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,

And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.

Thy kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and thy dominion endureth throughout all generations.

How great are his signs! and how mighty are his wonders! his kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and his dominion is from generation to generation.

And at the end of the days I Nebuchadnezzar lifted up mine eyes unto heaven, and mine understanding returned unto me, and I blessed the most High, and I praised and honoured him that liveth for ever, whose dominion is an everlasting dominion, and his kingdom is from generation to generation:

And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages, should serve him: his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed.

And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.

Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing.

And the four beasts said, Amen. And the four and twenty elders fell down and worshipped him that liveth for ever and ever.
