! Let Your Light So Shine

 

Ps.112:1

Praisea ye the LORD.

Blessed /is/ the man /that/ feareth the LORD, /that/ delighteth greatly in his commandments.

 2 His seed shall be mighty upon earth: the generation of the upright shall be blessed.

3 Wealth and riches /shall be/ in his house: and his righteousness endureth for ever. 4 Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness: /he is/ gracious, and full of compassion, and righteous.

5 A good man sheweth favour, and lendeth: he will guide his affairs with discretionb.



 

1 Peter 2:4 To whom coming, /as unto/ a living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, /and/ precious, 5 Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.

 6 Wherefore also it is contained in the scripture, Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious: and he that believeth on him shall not be confounded.

7 Unto you therefore which believe /he is/ preciousa: but unto them which be disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner,  8 And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence, /even to them/ which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed.

9 But ye /are/ a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiarb people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:  10 Which in time past /were/ not a people, but /are/ now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.

11 Dearly beloved, I beseech /you/ as strangers and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul; 12 Having your conversation honest among the Gentiles: that, whereasc they speak against you as evildoers, they may by /your/ good works, which they shall behold, glorify God in the day of visitation.
