1And Israel taking his journey, with all that he had, came to the well of the oath, and killing victims there to the God of his father Isaac, 2He heard him by a vision in the night calling him, and saying to him: Jacob, Jacob. And he answered him: Lo, here I am. 3God said to him: I am the most mighty God of thy father: fear not, go down into Egypt, for I will make a great nation of thee there. 4I will go down with thee thither, and will bring thee back again from thence: Joseph also shall put his hands upon thy eyes. 5And Jacob rose up from the well of the oath: and his sons took him up, with their children and wives in the wagons, which Pharao had sent to carry the old man, 6And all that he had in the land of Chanaan, and he came into Egypt with all his seed: 7His sons, and grandsons, daughters, and all his offspring together.

28And he sent Juda before him to Joseph, to tell him; and that he should meet him in Gessen. 29And when he was come thither, Joseph made ready his chariot, and went up to meet his father, in the same place: and seeing him, he fell upon his neck, and embracing him wept. 30And the father said to Joseph: Now shall I die with joy, because I have seen thy face, and leave thee alive.

3Trust in the Lord, and do good, and dwell in the land, and thou shalt be fed with its riches.

4Delight in the Lord, and he will give thee the requests of thy heart.

18The Lord knoweth the days of undefiled; and their inheritance shall be for ever.

19They shall not be confounded in the evil time; and in the days of famine they shall be filled:

…

27Decline from evil and do good, and dwell for ever and ever.

28For the Lord loveth judgment, and will not forsake his saints: they shall be preserved for ever. The unjust shall be punished, and the seed of the wicked shall perish.

39But the salvation of the just is from the Lord, and he is their protector in the time of trouble.

40And the Lord will help them and deliver them: and he will rescue them from the wicked, and save them, because they have hoped in him.

16Behold I send you as sheep in the midst of wolves. Be ye therefore wise as serpents and simple as doves. 17But beware of men. For they will deliver you up in councils, and they will scourge you in their synagogues. 18And you shall be brought before governors, and before kings for my sake, for a testimony to them and to the Gentiles: 19But when they shall deliver you up, take no thought how or what to speak: for it shall be given you in that hour what to speak. 20For it is not you that speak, but the Spirit of your Father that speaketh in you. 21The brother also shall deliver up the brother to death, and the father the son: and the children shall rise up against their parents, and shall put them to death. 22And you shall be hated by all men for my name's sake: but he that shall persevere unto the end, he shall be saved. 23And when they shall persecute you in this city, flee into another. Amen I say to you, you shall not finish all the cities of Israel, till the Son of man come.
