1
 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
2
 For by it the elders obtained a good report.
3
 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.
4
 By faith Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts: and by it he being dead yet speaketh.
5
 By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God.
6
 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.
7
 By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by the which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith.
8
 By faith Abraham, when he was called to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, obeyed; and he went out, not knowing whither he went.
9
 By faith he sojourned in the land of promise, as
in
a strange country, dwelling in tabernacles with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise:
10
 for he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker
is
God.
11
 Through faith also Sara herself received strength to conceive seed, and was delivered of a child when she was past age, because she judged him faithful who had promised.
12
 Therefore sprang there even of one, and him as good as dead,
so many
as the stars of the sky in multitude, and as the sand which is by the sea shore innumerable.
13
 These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of
them,
and embraced
them,
and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.
14
 For they that say such things declare plainly that they seek a country.
15
 And truly, if they had been mindful of that
country
from whence they came out, they might have had opportunity to have returned.
16
 But now they desire a better
country,
that is, an heavenly: wherefore God is not ashamed to be called their God: for he hath prepared for them a city.
A Psalm of David.
1
 The L
ORD
said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool.
2
 The L
ORD
shall send the rod of thy strength out of Zion: rule thou in the midst of thine enemies.
3
 Thy people
shall be
willing in the day of thy power, in the beauties of holiness from the womb of the morning: thou hast the dew of thy youth.
4
 The L
ORD
hath sworn, and will not repent, Thou
art
a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek.
5
 The L
ORD
at thy right hand shall strike through kings in the day of his wrath.
6
 He shall judge among the heathen, he shall fill
the places
with the dead bodies; he shall wound the heads over many countries.
7
 He shall drink of the brook in the way: therefore shall he lift up the head.
14
 He that blesseth his friend with a loud voice, rising early in the morning, it shall be counted a curse to him.

 The word of the L
ORD
came again unto me [Ezekiel], saying,
2
 Now, thou son of man, take up a lamentation for Tyrus;
3
 and say unto Tyrus, O thou that art situate at the entry of the sea,
which art
a merchant of the people for many isles, Thus saith the Lord G
OD
; O Tyrus, thou hast said, I
am
of perfect beauty.
4
 Thy borders
are
in the midst of the seas, thy builders have perfected thy beauty.
5
 They have made all thy
ship
boards of fir trees of Senir: they have taken cedars from Lebanon to make masts for thee.
6
Â
Of
the oaks of Bashan have they made thine oars; the company of the Ashurites have made thy benches
of
ivory,
brought
out of the isles of Chittim.
7
 Fine linen with broidered work from Egypt was that which thou spreadest forth to be thy sail; blue and purple from the isles of Elishah was that which covered thee.
8
 The inhabitants of Zidon and Arvad were thy mariners: thy wise
men,
O Tyrus,
that
were in thee, were thy pilots.
9
 The ancients of Gebal and the wise
men
thereof were in thee thy calkers: all the ships of the sea with their mariners were in thee to occupy thy merchandise.
10
 They of Persia and of Lud and of Phut were in thine army, thy men of war: they hanged the shield and helmet in thee; they set forth thy comeliness.
11
 The men of Arvad with thine army
were
upon thy walls round about, and the Gammadims were in thy towers: they hanged their shields upon thy walls round about; they have made thy beauty perfect.
12
 Tarshish
was
thy merchant by reason of the multitude of all
kind of
riches; with silver, iron, tin, and lead, they traded in thy fairs.
13
 Javan, Tubal, and Meshech, they
were
thy merchants: they traded the persons of men and vessels of brass in thy market.
14
 They of the house of Togarmah traded in thy fairs with horses and horsemen and mules.
15
 The men of Dedan
were
thy merchants; many isles
were
the merchandise of thine hand: they brought thee
for
a present horns of ivory and ebony.
16
 Syria
was
thy merchant by reason of the multitude of the wares of thy making: they occupied in thy fairs with emeralds, purple, and broidered work, and fine linen, and coral, and agate.
17
 Judah, and the land of Israel, they
were
thy merchants: they traded in thy market wheat of Minnith, and Pannag, and honey, and oil, and balm.
18
 Damascus
was
thy merchant in the multitude of the wares of thy making, for the multitude of all riches; in the wine of Helbon, and white wool.
19
 Dan also and Javan going to and fro occupied in thy fairs: bright iron, cassia, and calamus, were in thy market.
20
 Dedan
was
thy merchant in precious clothes for chariots.
21
 Arabia, and all the princes of Kedar, they occupied with thee in lambs, and rams, and goats: in these
were they
thy merchants.
22
 The merchants of Sheba and Raamah, they
were
thy merchants: they occupied in thy fairs with chief of all spices, and with all precious stones, and gold.
23
 Haran, and Canneh, and Eden, the merchants of Sheba, Asshur,
and
Chilmad,
were
thy merchants.
24
 These
were
thy merchants in all sorts
of things,
in blue clothes, and broidered work, and in chests of rich apparel, bound with cords, and made of cedar, among thy merchandise.
25
 The ships of Tarshish did sing of thee in thy market: and thou wast replenished, and made very glorious in the midst of the seas.
26
 Thy rowers have brought thee into great waters: the east wind hath broken thee in the midst of the seas.
27
 Thy riches, and thy fairs, thy merchandise, thy mariners, and thy pilots, thy calkers, and the occupiers of thy merchandise, and all thy men of war, that
are
in thee, and in all thy company which
is
in the midst of thee, shall fall into the midst of the seas in the day of thy ruin.
28
 The suburbs shall shake at the sound of the cry of thy pilots.
29
 And all that handle the oar, the mariners,
and
all the pilots of the sea, shall come down from their ships, they shall stand upon the land;
30
 And shall cause their voice to be heard against thee, and shall cry bitterly, and shall cast up dust upon their heads, they shall wallow themselves in the ashes:
31
 And they shall make themselves utterly bald for thee, and gird them with sackcloth, and they shall weep for thee with bitterness of heart
and
bitter wailing.
32
 And in their wailing they shall take up a lamentation for thee, and lament over thee,
saying,
What
city is
like Tyrus, like the destroyed in the midst of the sea?
33
 When thy wares went forth out of the seas, thou filledst many people; thou didst enrich the kings of the earth with the multitude of thy riches and of thy merchandise.
34
 In the time
when
thou shalt be broken by the seas in the depths of the waters thy merchandise and all thy company in the midst of thee shall fall.
35
 All the inhabitants of the isles shall be astonished at thee, and their kings shall be sore afraid, they shall be troubled in
their
countenance.
36
 The merchants among the people shall hiss at thee; thou shalt be a terror, and never
shalt be
any more.
28:
1
 The word of the L
ORD
came again unto me, saying,
2
 Son of man, say unto the prince of Tyrus, Thus saith the Lord G
OD
; because thine heart
is
lifted up, and thou hast said, I
am
a God, I sit
in
the seat of God, in the midst of the seas; yet thou
art
a man, and not God, though thou set thine heart as the heart of God:
3
 behold, thou
art
wiser than Daniel; there is no secret that they can hide from thee:
4
 with thy wisdom and with thine understanding thou hast gotten thee riches, and hast gotten gold and silver into thy treasures:
5
 by thy great wisdom
and
by thy traffick hast thou increased thy riches, and thine heart is lifted up because of thy riches:
6
 therefore thus saith the Lord G
OD
; Because thou hast set thine heart as the heart of God;
7
 behold, therefore I will bring strangers upon thee, the terrible of the nations: and they shall draw their swords against the beauty of thy wisdom, and they shall defile thy brightness.
8
 They shall bring thee down to the pit, and thou shalt die the deaths of
them that are
slain in the midst of the seas.
9
 Wilt thou yet say before him that slayeth thee, I
am
God? but thou
shalt be
a man, and no God, in the hand of him that slayeth thee.
10
 Thou shalt die the deaths of the uncircumcised by the hand of strangers: for I have spoken
it,
saith the Lord G
OD
.
11
 Moreover the word of the L
ORD
came unto me, saying,
12
 Son of man, take up a lamentation upon the king of Tyrus, and say unto him, Thus saith the Lord G
OD
; Thou sealest up the sum, full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty.
13
 Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone
was
thy covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of thy tabrets and of thy pipes was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created.
14
 Thou
art
the anointed cherub that covereth; and I have set thee
so:
thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire.
15
 Thou
wast
perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee.
16
 By the multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of thee with violence, and thou hast sinned: therefore I will cast thee as profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy thee, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire.
17
 Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee.
18
 Thou hast defiled thy sanctuaries by the multitude of thine iniquities, by the iniquity of thy traffick; therefore will I bring forth a fire from the midst of thee, it shall devour thee, and I will bring thee to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them that behold thee.
19
 All they that know thee among the people shall be astonished at thee: thou shalt be a terror, and never
shalt
thou
be
any more.
20
 Again the word of the L
ORD
came unto me, saying,
21
 Son of man, set thy face against Zidon, and prophesy against it,
22
 and say, Thus saith the Lord G
OD
; Behold, I
am
against thee, O Zidon; and I will be glorified in the midst of thee: and they shall know that I
am
the L
ORD
, when I shall have executed judgments in her, and shall be sanctified in her.
23
 For I will send into her pestilence, and blood into her streets; and the wounded shall be judged in the midst of her by the sword upon her on every side; and they shall know that I
am
the L
ORD
.
24
 And there shall be no more a pricking brier unto the house of Israel, nor
any
grieving thorn of all
that are
round about them, that despised them; and they shall know that I
am
the Lord G
OD
.
25
 Thus saith the Lord G
OD
; 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.
26
 And they shall dwell safely therein, and shall build houses, and plant vineyards; yea, they shall dwell with confidence, when I have executed judgments upon all those that despise them round about them; and they shall know that I
am
the L
ORD
their God.
