BETHLEHEM EPHRATAH

NOW GATHER THYSELF IN TROOPS, 
O DAUGHTER OF TROOPS: 
HE HATH LAID SIEGE  
AGAINST US: 
THEY SHALL 
SMITE THE JUDGE OF ISRAEL WITH 
 A ROD UPON THE CHEEK.
BUT THOU,
THOUGH THOU BE LITTLE AMONG
THE THOUSANDS OF JUDAH,
YET OUT OF
THEE SHALL HE COME FORTH
UNTO ME THAT
IS TO BE RULER IN ISRAEL;
WHOSE GOINGS FORTH
HAVE BEEN FROM OF OLD,
FROM EVERLASTING.
THEREFORE 
WILL HE GIVE THEM UP, 
UNTIL THE TIME THAT 
SHE WHICH 
TRAVAILETH 
HATH BROUGHT FORTH: 
THEN THE REMNANT 
OF HIS BRETHREN SHALL 
RETURN UNTO THE 
CHILDREN OF ISRAEL.
AND HE SHALL STAND 
AND FEED 
IN THE STRENGTH OF THE LORD, 
IN THE MAJESTY OF 
THE NAME OF THE LORD HIS GOD; 
AND THEY SHALL ABIDE: 
FOR NOW 
SHALL HE BE GREAT UNTO 
THE ENDS OF THE EARTH.
AND
THIS MAN SHALL
BE THE PEACE,
WHEN 
SHALL 
COME INTO OUR LAND: 
AND WHEN HE SHALL 
TREAD IN OUR PALACES, 
THEN SHALL WE RAISE 
AGAINST HIM 
SEVEN SHEPHERDS, 
AND 
EIGHT PRINCIPAL MEN.
AND 
THEY SHALL WASTE 
THE LAND 
OF ASSYRIA 
WITH THE SWORD, 
AND 
THE
IN 
THE ENTRANCES THEREOF: 
THUS SHALL 
HE DELIVER US FROM 
THE ASSYRIAN, 
WHEN HE 
COMETH INTO OUR LAND, 
AND WHEN HE 
TREADETH WITHIN OUR BORDERS.
AND 
THE REMNANT OF JACOB
SHALL BE IN THE MIDST OF
MANY PEOPLE AS
A DEW FROM THE LORD,
AS THE SHOWERS UPON
THE GRASS,
THAT TARRIETH NOT FOR MAN,
NOR WAITETH FOR THE SONS OF MEN.
AND 
THE REMNANT OF JACOB
SHALL BE AMONG THE GENTILES
IN THE MIDST OF MANY PEOPLE
AS A LION AMONG
THE BEASTS OF THE FOREST,
AS A YOUNG LION AMONG
THE FLOCKS OF SHEEP: WHO,
IF HE GO THROUGH,
BOTH TREADETH DOWN,
AND TEARETH IN PIECES,
AND NONE CAN DELIVER.
THINE HAND SHALL BE LIFTED 
UP UPON THINE ADVERSARIES, 
AND ALL THINE ENEMIES 
SHALL BE CUT OFF.
AND IT SHALL COME TO PASS 
IN THAT DAY, 
SAITH THE LORD, 
THAT I WILL 
CUT OFF THY HORSES OUT OF 
THE MIDST OF THEE,
 AND I WILL DESTROY 
THY CHARIOTS:
AND I WILL CUT OFF 
THE CITIES OF THY LAND, 
AND THROW DOWN 
ALL THY STRONG HOLDS:
AND 
I WILL CUT OFF WITCHCRAFTS 
OUT OF THINE HAND; 
AND THOU 
SHALT HAVE NO MORE 
SOOTHSAYERS:
THY GRAVEN IMAGES ALSO WILL 
I CUT OFF, 
AND 
THY STANDING IMAGES 
OUT OF THE MIDST OF THEE; 
AND THOU 
SHALT NO MORE WORSHIP 
THE WORK OF 
THINE HANDS.
AND 
I WILL PLUCK UP THY 
GROVES OUT OF THE MIDST 
OF THEE: 
SO WILL 
I DESTROY THY CITIES.
AND 
I WILL EXECUTE VENGEANCE 
IN ANGER AND FURY UPON 
THE HEATHEN, 
SUCH AS THEY HAVE NOT HEARD.

LOVE

Hebrews 11:17-40 BY FAITH  ABRAHAM, WHEN HE WAS TRIED, OFFERED UP ISAAC:  AND HE THAT HAD RECEIVED THE PROMISES  OFFERED UP HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON,  OF WHOM IT WAS SAID,  THAT IN ISAAC SHALL THY SEED BE CALLED:   ACCOUNTING THAT GOD WAS ABLE  TO RAISE HIM UP,  EVEN FROM THE DEAD;  FROM WHENCE  ALSO HE RECEIVED HIM  IN A FIGURE.   BY FAITH ISAAC blessed Jacob and Esau  CONCERNING THINGS TO COME BY FAITH JACOB, WHEN HE WAS DYING blessed both the sons of Joseph; and  WORSHIPPED, LEANING UPON THE TOP OF HIS STAFF. BY FAITH  JOSEPH,  WHEN HE DIED, MADE MENTION  of the departing of the children of Israel; and  GAVE COMMANDMENT CONCERNING HIS BONES. BY FAITH MOSES WHEN HE WAS BORN,  was hid three months of his parents,  because they saw he was A PROPER CHILD;  and they were NOT AFRAID of the king's commandment. BY FAIT...

JEREMIAH 6:1-9     O YE CHILDREN OF BENJAMIN ,  GATHER YOURSELVES  TO FLEE OUT OF  THE MIDST OF JERUSALEM ,  AND  BLOW THE TRUMPET IN TEKOA ,  AND SET UP A SIGN OF FIRE  IN BETHHACCEREM :  FOR EVIL APPEARETH  OUT OF THE NORTH,  AND GREAT DESTRUCTION. I HAVE LIKENED  THE DAUGHTER OF ZION   TO  A COMELY AND DELICATE WOMAN. THE SHEPHERDS WITH THEIR FLOCKS  SHALL COME UNTO HER;  THEY SHALL PITCH THEIR TENTS  AGAINST HER ROUND ABOUT;  THEY SHALL FEED EVERY  ONE IN HIS PLACE.  PREPARE YE WAR AGAINST HER;  ARISE,  AND LET US GO UP AT NOON.  WOE UNTO US!  FOR THE DAY GOETH AWAY,  FOR THE SHADOWS OF THE EVENING  ARE STRETCHED OUT.  ARISE, AND LET US GO BY NIGHT,  AND LET US DESTROY  HER PALACES.  FOR  THUS HATH THE LORD OF HOSTS SAID,  HEW YE DOWN TREES,  AND  CAST A MOUNT AGAINST  JERUSALEM:  THIS IS THE CITY TO ...
