Do not become like your fathers, unto whom the former prophets, proclaimed, saying, Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts, Return, I pray you, from your wicked ways, and from your wicked practices; but they heard not, nor hearkened unto me, declareth Yahweh.

Because I called, and ye refused, I stretched out my hand, and no one regarded; But ye dismissed all my counsel, and, to my rebuke, would not yield, I also, at your calamity, will laugh, I will mock, when cometh your dread; When cometh as a crashing your dread, and, your calamity, as a storm-wind, overtaketh, when there come upon you, distress and anguish. Then, will they call me, but I will not answer, they will seek me diligently, but shall not find me. Because they hated knowledge, and, the reverence of Yahweh, did not choose; Consented not to my counsel, disdained all my rebuke, Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and, with their own counsels, be filled. For, the turning away of the simple, will slay them, - and, the carelessness of dullards, will destroy them. Whereas, he that hearkeneth unto me, shall dwell safely, and be at rest, without dread of misfortune.

We, are, of God: he that is getting to understand God, hearkeneth unto us, - whoso is not of God, hearkeneth not unto us: from this, perceive we - the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.

The ear that heareth the reproof which giveth life, in the midst of the wise, shall remain.

The hearing ear, and the seeing eye, Yahweh hath made them, both.

When anyone heareth the word of the kingdom, and understandeth it not, the wicked one cometh, and catcheth up that which hath been sown in his heart, - this, is he, by the pathway, sown.

Alas! for sons who are rebellious, Declareth Yahweh. Executing a purpose, but not from me, And pouring out a libation but not from my spirit, - That they may add sin to sin: Who are setting out to go down to Egypt, But at my mouth, have not asked, - Betaking them to the protection of Pharaoh And seeking refuge under the shadow of Egypt. Therefore shall the protection of Pharaoh become to you a shame, And, the refuge in the shadow of Egypt, an insult; read more.
For their princes have been, in Zoan, - And, their messengers unto Hanes, would draw near. Every one, hath felt ashamed of a people that could not serve them, - Neither with help, nor with service, But they are a shame, yea even a reproach.

Now, enter - Write it upon a tablet before them And upon a scroll, inscribe it, - That it may serve for a later day, For futurity, unto times age-abiding: - That it is, a rebellious people, Sons apt at deceiving, - Sons unwilling to hear the law of Yahweh:

And, if the son of peace be, there, your peace, shall rest upon it; but, otherwise, at least, unto you, shall it return. And, in the self-same house, abide ye, eating and drinking such things as they have; for, worthy, is the labourer, of his hire: be not removing from house to house. And, into whatsoever city ye shall enter, and they bid you welcome, be eating such things as are set before you; And be curing the sick that are, therein, and be saying unto them - The kingdom of God hath drawn nigh upon you. But, into whatsoever city ye shall enter, and they do not welcome you, going forth into the broadways thereof, say ye: Even the dust that cleaveth unto us, out of your city, unto our feet, do we wipe off against you; nevertheless, of this, be taking notice - The kingdom of God hath drawn near. I tell you, for them of Sodom, in that day, more tolerable, will it be, than for that city. Alas for thee, Chorazin! Alas for thee, Bethsaida! Because, if, in Tyre and Zidon, had been done the works of power which have been down in you, of old, in sackcloth and ashes sitting, they would have repented. Moreover, for Tyre and Zidon, more tolerable, will it be, in the judgment, than, for you. And, thou, Capernaum, - Unto heaven, shalt thou be uplifted? -- Unto hades, thou shalt be brought down! He that hearkeneth unto you, unto me, doth hearken, and, he that setteth you aside, doth set, me, aside; and, he that setteth, me, aside, doth set aside, him that sent me.

Beloved! not in every spirit, believe ye, but test the spirits, whether they are, of God; because, many false prophets, have gone out into the world. Hereby, do ye perceive the Spirit of God: - every spirit that confesseth Jesus Christ as having come, in flesh, is, of God; And, every spirit that doth not confess Jesus, of God, is not. And, this, is the spirit of the Antichrist, touching which ye have heard that it cometh: even now, is it, in the world, already. read more.
Ye, are, of God, dear children, and have overcome them; because, greater, is he that is in you, than he that is in the world. They, are, of the world: For this cause, of the world, they speak, and the world, unto them, doth hearken. We, are, of God: he that is getting to understand God, hearkeneth unto us, - whoso is not of God, hearkeneth not unto us: from this, perceive we - the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.

Hence, our faith, cometh by something heard, and, that which is heard, through a declaration of Christ.

But he said unto him - If, unto Moses and the Prophets, they do not hearken, neither, if one, from among the dead, should arise, would they be persuaded.

Ye know, my brethren beloved, - but let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger,

Hear, ye wise men, my words, and, ye who know, give ear unto me; For, the ear, trieth words, as, the palate, tasteth in eating.

Howbeit, vanity, will GOD not hear, Yea, the Almighty, will not regard it.

In whom also we were taken as an inheritance, according to the purpose of him who energiseth all things according to the counsel of his will,

To open their eyes; that they turn from darkness unto light, and the authority of Satan unto God, that they may receive remission of sins, and an inheritance among them who have been made holy by the faith respecting me.

Unto an inheritance, incorruptible and undefiled and unfading, reserved in the heavens for you

Now, therefore, I commend you unto the Lord, and unto his word of favour, - which is able to build up and give the inheritance among all the hallowed ones.

Knowing that, from the Lord, ye shall duly receive the recompense of the inheritance, - unto the Lord Christ, are ye in service;

For, not through means of law, doth the promise belong unto Abraham or unto his seed, - that he should be heir of thee world; but, through a righteousness by faith.

Now, if, ye, are of Christ, by consequence ye are, Abraham's seed, according to promise, heirs.

And, if children, heirs also - heirs, indeed, of God, but co-heirs with Christ, - if, at least, we are suffering together, in order that we may also be glorified together.

So that, no longer, art thou a servant, but a son; and, if a son, an heir also, through God.

Are they not, all, spirits, doing public service, - for ministry, sent forth, for the sake of them who are about to inherit salvation?

O Yahweh, I have heard tidings of thee, I am afraid. O Yahweh! Thy work - in the midst of the years, O revive it, in the midst of the years, wilt thou make known? In trouble, wilt thou remember, compassion?

Ye know, my brethren beloved, - but let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger,

Keep thy foot, when thou goest unto the house of God, and be more ready to hear, than dullards to offer sacrifice, - for they make no acknowledgment of doing wrong.

But, that in the good ground, these, are they who, indeed, in a noble and good heart having heard the word, hold fast, and bear fruit with endurance.

How happy the man that doth hearken to me, - keeping guard at my doors, day by day, watching at the posts of my gates;

Pass ye through pass ye through the gates, Prepare ye the way of the people, - Cast ye up, cast ye up the highway, Clear it of stones, Lift ye high a standard unto the peoples.

And there shall be there, a raised way - even a high road, And the Highroad of Holiness, shall it be called, There shall not pass over it one who is unclean; But He Himself, shall be one of them travelling the road, And the perverse, shall not stray thereinto .

Behold me! doing a new thing, Now, shall it spring forth, Will ye not take note thereof? Surely I will set In the desert, a way, In a desolate land, rivers:

The highway of the upright, is to avoid evil, He preserveth his soul, who guardeth his way.

Erect thee waymarks Set thee up finger-posts, Apply thy heart to The highway - The road by which thou didst depart, - Return O virgin of Israel, Return unto these thy cities.
