Psalm 21Psalm 221 Corinthians 13Psalm 21
1
<> The king shall joy in thy strength, O LORD and in thy salvation how greatly shall he rejoice!
2
Thou hast given him his heart's desire, and hast not withholden the request of his lips. Selah.
3
For thou preventest him with the blessings of goodness: thou settest a crown of pure gold on his head.
4
He asked life of thee, [and] thou gavest [it] him, [even] length of days for ever and ever.
5
His glory [is] great in thy salvation: honour and majesty hast thou laid upon him.
6
For thou hast made him most blessed for ever: thou hast made him exceeding glad with thy countenance.
7
For the king trusteth in the LORD, and through the mercy of the most High he shall not be moved.
8
Thine hand shall find out all thine enemies: thy right hand shall find out those that hate thee.
9
Thou shalt make them as a fiery oven in the time of thine anger: the LORD shall swallow them up in his wrath, and the fire shall devour them.
10
Their fruit shalt thou destroy from the earth, and their seed from among the children of men.
11
For they intended evil against thee: they imagined a mischievous device, [which] they are not able [to perform].
12
Therefore shalt thou make them turn their back, [when] thou shalt make ready [thine arrows] upon thy strings against the face of them.
13
Be thou exalted, LORD, in thine own strength: [so] will we sing and praise thy power.
Psalm 22
1
<> My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? [why art thou so] far from helping me, [and from] the words of my roaring?
2
O my God, I cry in the daytime, but thou hearest not and in the night season, and am not silent.
3
But thou [art] holy, [O thou] that inhabitest the praises of Israel.
4
Our fathers trusted in thee: they trusted, and thou didst deliver them.
5
They cried unto thee, and were delivered: they trusted in thee, and were not confounded.
6
But I [am] a worm, and no man a reproach of men, and despised of the people.
7
All they that see me laugh me to scorn: they shoot out the lip, they shake the head, [saying],
8
He trusted on the LORD [that] he would deliver him: let him deliver him, seeing he delighted in him.
9
But thou [art] he that took me out of the womb: thou didst make me hope [when I was] upon my mother's breasts.
10
I was cast upon thee from the womb: thou [art] my God from my mother's belly.
11
Be not far from me for trouble [is] near for [there is] none to help.
12
Many bulls have compassed me: strong [bulls] of Bashan have beset me round.
13
They gaped upon me [with] their mouths, [as] a ravening and a roaring lion.
14
I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint: my heart is like wax it is melted in the midst of my bowels.
15
My strength is dried up like a potsherd and my tongue cleaveth to my jaws and thou hast brought me into the dust of death.
16
For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked have inclosed me: they pierced my hands and my feet.
17
I may tell all my bones: they look [and] stare upon me.
18
They part my garments among them, and cast lots upon my vesture.
19
But be not thou far from me, O LORD: O my strength, haste thee to help me.
20
Deliver my soul from the sword my darling from the power of the dog.
21
Save me from the lion's mouth: for thou hast heard me from the horns of the unicorns.
22
I will declare thy name unto my brethren: in the midst of the congregation will I praise thee.
23
Ye that fear the LORD, praise him all ye the seed of Jacob, glorify him and fear him, all ye the seed of Israel.
24
For he hath not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted neither hath he hid his face from him but when he cried unto him, he heard.
25
My praise [shall be] of thee in the great congregation: I will pay my vows before them that fear him.
26
The meek shall eat and be satisfied: they shall praise the LORD that seek him: your heart shall live for ever.
27
All the ends of the world shall remember and turn unto the LORD: and all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before thee.
28
For the kingdom [is] the LORD'S: and he [is] the governor among the nations.
29
All [they that be] fat upon earth shall eat and worship: all they that go down to the dust shall bow before him: and none can keep alive his own soul.
30
A seed shall serve him it shall be accounted to the Lord for a generation.
31
They shall come, and shall declare his righteousness unto a people that shall be born, that he hath done [this].
1 Corinthians 13
1
Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become [as] sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.
2
And though I have [the gift of] prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing.
3
And though I bestow all my goods to feed [the poor], and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing.
4
Charity suffereth long, [and] is kind charity envieth not charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,
5
Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil
6
Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth
7
Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.
8
Charity never faileth: but whether [there be] prophecies, they shall fail whether [there be] tongues, they shall cease whether [there be] knowledge, it shall vanish away.
9
For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.
10
But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.
11
When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.
12
For now we see through a glass, darkly but then face to face: now I know in part but then shall I know even as also I am known.
13
And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three but the greatest of these [is] charity.
