Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect.1 – Leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God.2 – The path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day.3 |
I love the Lord, because he hath heard my voice and my supplications. Because he hath inclined his ear unto me, therefore will I call upon him as long as I live.4 – I will bless the Lord at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth.5 |
Praise waiteth for thee, O God, in Sion.6 – They rest not day and night, saying, Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty.7 – Whoso offereth praise glorifieth me.8 – Rejoice evermore. Pray without ceasing. In everything give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.9 – Rejoice in the Lord alway: and again I say, Rejoice.10 |
