HOSEA.

CHAPTER 4:

HEAR the word of the LORD, ye children
of Israel: for the LORD hath a controversy
with the inhabitants of the land, because
there is no truth, nor mercy, nor
knowledge of God in the land.

6 ¶ My people are destroyed for lack of
knowledge: because thou hast rejected
knowledge, I will also reject thee, that
thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou
hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will
also forget thy children.

THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO ST. JOHN.
CHAPTER 4:

22 Ye worship ye know not what: we
know what we worship: for salvation is of
the Jews.

him must worship him in spirit and in
truth.

CHAPTER 8:

24 I said therefore unto you, that ye shall
die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I
am he, ye shall die in your sins.
25 Then said they unto him, Who art
thou? And Jesus saith unto them, Even the
same that I said unto you from the beginning.

26 I have many things to say and to judge
of you: but he that sent me is true; and I
speak to the world those things which I
have heard of him.
27 They understood not that he spake to
them of the Father.

CHAPTER 23:

23 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees,
hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and
anise and cummin, and have omitted the
weightier matters of the law, judgment,
mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have
done, and not to leave the other undone.

CHAPTER 9:

23 ¶ Thus saith the LORD, Let not the wise
man glory in his wisdom, neither let the
mighty man glory in his might, let not the
rich man glory in his riches:
24 But let him that glorieth glory in this,
that he understandeth and knoweth me,
that I am the LORD which exercise
lovingkindness, judgment, and
righteousness, in the earth: for in these
things I delight, saith the LORD.

19 ¶ Then was the secret revealed unto
Daniel in a night vision. Then Daniel
blessed the God of heaven.
20 Daniel answered and said, Blessed be
the name of God for ever and ever: for
wisdom and might are his:

36 ¶ This is the dream; and we will tell the
interpretation thereof before the king.
37 Thou, O king, art a king of kings: for
the God of heaven hath given thee a
kingdom, power, and strength, and glory.

unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can
see: to whom be honour and power
everlasting. Amen.

not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of
Christ, who is the image of God, should
shine unto them.

CHAPTER 9:

3 And as he journeyed, he came near
Damascus: and suddenly there shined
round about him a light from heaven:
4 And he fell to the earth, and heard a
voice saying unto him, Saul, Saul, why
persecutest thou me?
5 And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And
the Lord said, I am Jesus whom thou
persecutest: it is hard for thee to kick
against the pricks.
6 And he trembling and astonished said,
Lord, what wilt thou have me to do? And
the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into
the city, and it shall be told thee what thou
must do.
7 And the men which journeyed with him
stood speechless, hearing a voice, but
seeing no man.
8 And Saul arose from the earth; and
when his eyes were opened, he saw no
man: but they led him by the hand, and
brought him into Damascus.
9 And he was three days without sight,
and neither did eat nor drink.

 CHAPTER 22:

6 And it came to pass, that, as I made my
journey, and was come nigh unto
Damascus about noon, suddenly there
shone from heaven a great light round
about me.
7 And I fell unto the ground, and heard a
voice saying unto me, Saul, Saul, why
persecutest thou me?
8 And I answered, Who art thou, Lord?
And he said unto me, I am Jesus of
Nazareth, whom thou persecutest.
9 And they that were with me saw indeed
the light, and were afraid; but they heard
not the voice of him that spake to me.
10 And I said, What shall I do, Lord? And
the Lord said unto me, Arise, and go into
Damascus; and there it shall be told thee
of all things which are appointed for thee
to do.
11 And when I could not see for the glory
of that light, being led by the hand of them
that were with me, I came into Damascus.
12 And one Ananias, a devout man
according to the law, having a good report
of all the Jews which dwelt there,
13 Came unto me, and stood, and said
unto me, Brother Saul, receive thy sight.
And the same hour I looked up upon him.
14 And he said, The God of our fathers
hath chosen thee, that thou shouldest
know his will, and see that Just One, and
shouldest hear the voice of his mouth.

CHAPTER 26:

13 At midday, O king, I saw in the way a
light from heaven, above the brightness of
the sun, shining round about me and them
which journeyed with me.
14 And when we were all fallen to the
earth, I heard a voice speaking unto me,
and saying in the Hebrew tongue, Saul,
Saul, why persecutest thou me? it is hard
for thee to kick against the pricks.
15 And I said, Who art thou, Lord? And
he said, I am Jesus whom thou
persecutest.
16 But rise, and stand upon thy feet: for I
have appeared unto thee for this purpose,
to make thee a minister and a witness both
of these things which thou hast seen, and
of those things in the which I will appear
unto thee;

17 Delivering thee from the people, and
from the Gentiles, unto whom now I send
thee,
18 To open their eyes, and to turn them
from darkness to light, and from the power
of Satan unto God, that they may receive
forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among
them which are sanctified by faith that is
in me.

2 And were all baptized unto Moses in the

3 And did all eat the same spiritual meat;
4 And did all drink the same spiritual
drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock
that followed them: and that Rock was
Christ.
