Jeremiah 47:1–48:47
1The word that came from the Lord to Jeremias, after that Nabuzardan the captain of the guard had let him go out of Rama, when he had taken him in manacles in the midst of the captivity of Juda, [even] those who were carried to Babylon. 2And the chief captain of the guard took him, and said to him, The Lord your God has pronounced all these evils upon this place: 3and the Lord has done it; because you⌃ sinned against him, and listened not to his voice. 4Behold, I have loosed you from the manacles that were upon your hands. If it seem good to you to go with me to Babylon, then will I set my eyes upon you. 5But if not, depart; return to Godolias the son of Achicam, the son of Saphan, whom the king of Babylon has appointed governor in the land of Juda, and dwell with him in the midst of the people in the land of Juda: to whatever places it seems good in your eyes to go, do you even go. And the captain of the guard made him presents, and let him go. 6And he came to Godolias to Massepha, and lived in the midst of his people that was left in the land. 7And all the leaders of the host that was in the country, they and their men, heard that the king of Babylon had appointed Godolias [governor] in the land, and they committed to him the men and their wives, whom [Nabuchodonosor had] not removed to Babylon. 8And there came to Godolias to Massepha Ismael the son of Nathanias, and Joanan son of Caree, and Saraeas the son of Thanaemeth, and the sons of Jophe the Netophathite, and Ezonias son of the Mochathite, they and their men. 9And Godolias swore to them and to their men, saying, Be not afraid before the children of the Chaldeans: dwell in the land, and serve the king of Babylon, and it shall be better for you. 10And, behold, I dwell in your presence at Massepha, to stand before the Chaldeans who shall come against you: and do you⌃ gather grapes, and fruits, and oil, and put [them] into your vessels, and dwell in the cities which you⌃ have obtained possession of. 11And all the Jews that were in Moab, and among the children of Ammon, and those [that were] in Idumea, and those [that were] in all [the rest of] the country, heard that the king of Babylon [had] granted a remnant to Juda, and that he had appointed over them Godolias the son of Achicam. 12And they came to Godolias into the land of Juda, to Massepha, and gathered grapes, and very much summer fruit, and oil. 13And Joanan the son of Caree, and all the leaders of the host, who were in the fields, came to Godolias to Massepha, 14and said to him, Do you indeed know that king Beleissa son of Ammon has sent Ismael to you to kill you? But Godolias believed them not. 15And Joanan said to Godolias secretly in Massepha, I will go now and strike Ismael, and let no man know [it]; lest he kill you, and all the Jews that are gathered to you be dispersed, and the remnant of Juda perish. 16But Godolias said to Joanan, Do not the thing, for you speak lies concerning Ismael. Chapter 481Now it came to pass in the seventh month that Ismael the son of Nathanias the son of Eleasa of the seed royal, came, and ten men with him, to Godolias to Massepha: and they ate bread there together. 2And Ismael rose up, and the ten men that were with him, and struck Godolias, whom the king of Babylon had appointed [governor] over the land, 3and all the Jews that were with him in Massepha, and all the Chaldeans that were found there. 4And it came to pass on the second day after he had struck Godolias, and no man knew [of it], 5that there came men from Sychem, and from Salem, and from Samaria, [even] eighty men, having their beards shaven, and their clothes torn, and beating their breasts, and [they had] manna and frankincense in their hands, to bring [them] into the house of the Lord. 6And Ismael went out to meet them; [and] they went on and wept: and he said to them, Come in to Godolias. 7And it came to pass, when they had entered into the midst of the city, [that] he killed them [and cast them] into a pit. 8But ten men were found there, and they said to Ismael, Slay us not: for we have treasures in the field, wheat and barley, honey and oil. So he passed by, and killed them not in the midst of their brethren. 9Now the pit into which Ismael cast all whom he struck, is the great pit, which king Asa had made for fear of Baasa king of Israel: [even] this Ismael filled with slain men. 10And Ismael brought back all the people that were left in Massepha, and the king's daughter, whom the captain of the guard had committed in charge to Godolias the son of Achicam: and he went away beyond the children of Ammon. 11And Joanan the son of Caree, and all the leaders of the host that were with him, heard of all the evil deeds which Ismael had done. 12And they brought all their army, and went to fight against him, and found him near much water in Gabaon. 13And it came to pass, when all the people that was with Ismael saw Joanan, and the leaders of the host that was with him, 14that they returned to Joanan. 15But Ismael escaped with eight men and went to the children of Ammon. 16And Joanan, and all the leaders of the host that were with him, took all the remnant of the people, whom he [had] brought back from Ismael, mighty men in war, and the women, and the other [property], and the eunuchs, whom they [had] brought back from Gabaon: 17and they departed, and lived in Gaberoch-amaa, that is by Bethleem, to go into Egypt, for fear of the Chaldeans: 18for they were afraid of them, because Ismael had struck Godolias, whom the king of Babylon made [governor] in the land.

Psalm 118:113–120(MT: 119)
MT Psalm 119 = LXX Psalm 118 (standard offset).
113I have hated transgressors; but I have loved your law. 114You are my helper and my supporter; I have hoped in your words. 115Depart from me, you⌃ evil-doers; for I will search out the commandments of my God. 116Uphold me according to your word, and quicken me; and make me not ashamed of my expectation. 117Help me, and I shall be saved; and I will meditate in your ordinances continually. 118You have brought to nothing all that depart from your ordinances; for their inward thought is unrighteous. 119I have reckoned all the sinners of the earth as transgressors; therefore have I loved your testimonies. 120Penetrate my flesh with your fear; for I am afraid of your judgments.

Proverbs 28:5
5Evil men will not understand judgment: but they that seek the Lord will understand everything.
New TestamentKing James Version
2 Timothy 4:1–22
1I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom; 2Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. 3For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; 4And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables. 5But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry. 6For I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand. 7I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith: 8Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing. 9Do thy diligence to come shortly unto me: 10For Demas hath forsaken me, having loved this present world, and is departed unto Thessalonica; Crescens to Galatia, Titus unto Dalmatia. 11Only Luke is with me. Take Mark, and bring him with thee: for he is profitable to me for the ministry. 12And Tychicus have I sent to Ephesus. 13The cloke that I left at Troas with Carpus, when thou comest, bring with thee, and the books, but especially the parchments. 14Alexander the coppersmith did me much evil: the Lord reward him according to his works: 15Of whom be thou ware also; for he hath greatly withstood our words. 16At my first answer no man stood with me, but all men forsook me: I pray God that it may not be laid to their charge. 17Notwithstanding the Lord stood with me, and strengthened me; that by me the preaching might be fully known, and that all the Gentiles might hear: and I was delivered out of the mouth of the lion. 18And the Lord shall deliver me from every evil work, and will preserve me unto his heavenly kingdom: to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen. 19Salute Prisca and Aquila, and the household of Onesiphorus. 20Erastus abode at Corinth: but Trophimus have I left at Miletum sick. 21Do thy diligence to come before winter. Eubulus greeteth thee, and Pudens, and Linus, and Claudia, and all the brethren. 22The Lord Jesus Christ be with thy spirit. Grace be with you. Amen. The second epistle unto Timotheus, ordained the first bishop of the church of the Ephesians, was written from Rome, when Paul was brought before Nero the second time.
