13 And all thy sons shall be disciples of the LORD, andgreat shallbe the peace of thy sons.

14 In righteousness shalt thou be established; be thou far from oppression, for thou shalt not fear, and from destruction, for it shall not come near thee.

15 Behold, they surely gather together; it is not of me; who gathereth against thee? he shall fall because of thee.

16 Behold, I have created the craftsman, that bloweth on the fire of coals, and that bringeth forth a weapon for its work; and Ι have created the waster to destroy.

17 No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue (that) shall rise up against thee in judgment thou shalt convict. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness from me, saith the Lord.

LV. 1 Ah, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters, and he that hath no silver; come ye, buy and eat: and come, buy wine and milk, for no silver and for no price.

2 Wherefore do ye weigh silver for no bread, and your earnings for that which is not to satisfy? hearken, (only) hearken unto me, and eat ye that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness.

3 Incline your ear, and come unto me: hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you; the faithful lovingkindnesses of David.

4 Behold, I have given him for a witness of peoples, a chief and commander of peoples.

5 Behold, thou shalt call a nation that thou knowest not, and a nationthat knoweth not thee shall run unto thee; for the sake of the LORD thy God, and for the Holy One of Israel; for he hath glorified thee.

6 Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near.

7 Let the wicked forsake his way, and the man of iniquity his thoughts; and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.
