2 Kings 3, 2 Thessalonians 3, Daniel 7, Psalm 114, 115

 

2 Kings 3,

1 Joram son of Ahab became king of Israel in Samaria in the eighteenth year of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, and he reigned twelve years.
 
2 He did evil in the eyes of the LORD, but not as his father and mother had done. He got rid of the sacred stone of Baal that his father had made.
 
3 Nevertheless he clung to the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, which he had caused Israel to commit; he did not turn away from them.
 
4 Now Mesha king of Moab raised sheep, and he had to supply the king of Israel with a hundred thousand lambs and with the wool of a hundred thousand rams.
 
5 But after Ahab died, the king of Moab rebelled against the king of Israel.
 
6 So at that time King Joram set out from Samaria and mobilized all Israel.
 
7 He also sent this message to Jehoshaphat king of Judah: "The king of Moab has rebelled against me. Will you go with me to fight against Moab?" "I will go with you," he replied. "I am as you are, my people as your people, my horses as your horses."
 
8 "By what route shall we attack?" he asked. "Through the Desert of Edom," he answered.
 
9 So the king of Israel set out with the king of Judah and the king of Edom. After a roundabout march of seven days, the army had no more water for themselves or for the animals with them.
 
10 "What!" exclaimed the king of Israel. "Has the LORD called us three kings together only to hand us over to Moab?"
 
11 But Jehoshaphat asked, "Is there no prophet of the LORD here, that we may inquire of the LORD through him?" An officer of the king of Israel answered, "Elisha son of Shaphat is here. He used to pour water on the hands of Elijah."
 
12 Jehoshaphat said, "The word of the LORD is with him." So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat and the king of Edom went down to him.
 
13 Elisha said to the king of Israel, "What do we have to do with each other? Go to the prophets of your father and the prophets of your mother." "No," the king of Israel answered, "because it was the LORD who called us three kings together to hand us over to Moab."
 
14 Elisha said, "As surely as the LORD Almighty lives, whom I serve, if I did not have respect for the presence of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, I would not look at you or even notice you.
 
15 But now bring me a harpist." While the harpist was playing, the hand of the LORD came upon Elisha
 
16 and he said, "This is what the LORD says: Make this valley full of ditches.
 
17 For this is what the LORD says: You will see neither wind nor rain, yet this valley will be filled with water, and you, your cattle and your other animals will drink.
 
18 This is an easy thing in the eyes of the LORD; he will also hand Moab over to you.
 
19 You will overthrow every fortified city and every major town. You will cut down every good tree, stop up all the springs, and ruin every good field with stones."
 
20 The next morning, about the time for offering the sacrifice, there it was-water flowing from the direction of Edom! And the land was filled with water.
 
21 Now all the Moabites had heard that the kings had come to fight against them; so every man, young and old, who could bear arms was called up and stationed on the border.
 
22 When they got up early in the morning, the sun was shining on the water. To the Moabites across the way, the water looked red-like blood.
 
23 "That's blood!" they said. "Those kings must have fought and slaughtered each other. Now to the plunder, Moab!"
 
24 But when the Moabites came to the camp of Israel, the Israelites rose up and fought them until they fled. And the Israelites invaded the land and slaughtered the Moabites.
 
25 They destroyed the towns, and each man threw a stone on every good field until it was covered. They stopped up all the springs and cut down every good tree. Only Kir Hareseth was left with its stones in place, but men armed with slings surrounded it and attacked it as well.
 
26 When the king of Moab saw that the battle had gone against him, he took with him seven hundred swordsmen to break through to the king of Edom, but they failed.
 
27 Then he took his firstborn son, who was to succeed him as king, and offered him as a sacrifice on the city wall. The fury against Israel was great; they withdrew and returned to their own land.

 


2 Thessalonians 3,

1 Finally, brothers, pray for us that the message of the Lord may spread rapidly and be honored, just as it was with you.
 
2 And pray that we may be delivered from wicked and evil men, for not everyone has faith.
 
3 But the Lord is faithful, and he will strengthen and protect you from the evil one.
 
4 We have confidence in the Lord that you are doing and will continue to do the things we command.
 
5 May the Lord direct your hearts into God's love and Christ's perseverance.
 
6 In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, we command you, brothers, to keep away from every brother who is idle and does not live according to the teaching you received from us.
 
7 For you yourselves know how you ought to follow our example. We were not idle when we were with you,
 
8 nor did we eat anyone's food without paying for it. On the contrary, we worked night and day, laboring and toiling so that we would not be a burden to any of you.
 
9 We did this, not because we do not have the right to such help, but in order to make ourselves a model for you to follow.
 
10 For even when we were with you, we gave you this rule: "If a man will not work, he shall not eat."
 
11 We hear that some among you are idle. They are not busy; they are busybodies.
 
12 Such people we command and urge in the Lord Jesus Christ to settle down and earn the bread they eat.
 
13 And as for you, brothers, never tire of doing what is right.
 
14 If anyone does not obey our instruction in this letter, take special note of him. Do not associate with him, in order that he may feel ashamed.
 
15 Yet do not regard him as an enemy, but warn him as a brother.
 
16 Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times and in every way. The Lord be with all of you.
 
17 I, Paul, write this greeting in my own hand, which is the distinguishing mark in all my letters. This is how I write.
 
18 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.

 


Daniel 7,

1 In the first year of Belshazzar king of Babylon, Daniel had a dream, and visions passed through his mind as he was lying on his bed. He wrote down the substance of his dream.
 
2 Daniel said: "In my vision at night I looked, and there before me were the four winds of heaven churning up the great sea.
 
3 Four great beasts, each different from the others, came up out of the sea.
 
4 "The first was like a lion, and it had the wings of an eagle. I watched until its wings were torn off and it was lifted from the ground so that it stood on two feet like a man, and the heart of a man was given to it.
 
5 "And there before me was a second beast, which looked like a bear. It was raised up on one of its sides, and it had three ribs in its mouth between its teeth. It was told, 'Get up and eat your fill of flesh!'
 
6 "After that, I looked, and there before me was another beast, one that looked like a leopard. And on its back it had four wings like those of a bird. This beast had four heads, and it was given authority to rule.
 
7 "After that, in my vision at night I looked, and there before me was a fourth beast-terrifying and frightening and very powerful. It had large iron teeth; it crushed and devoured its victims and trampled underfoot whatever was left. It was different from all the former beasts, and it had ten horns.
 
8 "While I was thinking about the horns, there before me was another horn, a little one, which came up among them; and three of the first horns were uprooted before it. This horn had eyes like the eyes of a man and a mouth that spoke boastfully.
 
9 "As I looked, "thrones were set in place, and the Ancient of Days took his seat. His clothing was as white as snow; the hair of his head was white like wool. His throne was flaming with fire, and its wheels were all ablaze.
 
10 A river of fire was flowing, coming out from before him. Thousands upon thousands attended him; ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him. The court was seated, and the books were opened.
 
11 "Then I continued to watch because of the boastful words the horn was speaking. I kept looking until the beast was slain and its body destroyed and thrown into the blazing fire.
 
12 (The other beasts had been stripped of their authority, but were allowed to live for a period of time.)
 
13 "In my vision at night I looked, and there before me was one like a son of man, coming with the clouds of heaven. He approached the Ancient of Days and was led into his presence.
 
14 He was given authority, glory and sovereign power; all peoples, nations and men of every language worshiped him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion that will not pass away, and his kingdom is one that will never be destroyed.
 
15 "I, Daniel, was troubled in spirit, and the visions that passed through my mind disturbed me.
 
16 I approached one of those standing there and asked him the true meaning of all this. "So he told me and gave me the interpretation of these things:
 
17 'The four great beasts are four kingdoms that will rise from the earth.
 
18 But the saints of the Most High will receive the kingdom and will possess it forever-yes, for ever and ever.'
 
19 "Then I wanted to know the true meaning of the fourth beast, which was different from all the others and most terrifying, with its iron teeth and bronze claws-the beast that crushed and devoured its victims and trampled underfoot whatever was left.
 
20 I also wanted to know about the ten horns on its head and about the other horn that came up, before which three of them fell-the horn that looked more imposing than the others and that had eyes and a mouth that spoke boastfully.
 
21 As I watched, this horn was waging war against the saints and defeating them,
 
22 until the Ancient of Days came and pronounced judgment in favor of the saints of the Most High, and the time came when they possessed the kingdom.
 
23 "He gave me this explanation: 'The fourth beast is a fourth kingdom that will appear on earth. It will be different from all the other kingdoms and will devour the whole earth, trampling it down and crushing it.
 
24 The ten horns are ten kings who will come from this kingdom. After them another king will arise, different from the earlier ones; he will subdue three kings.
 
25 He will speak against the Most High and oppress his saints and try to change the set times and the laws. The saints will be handed over to him for a time, times and half a time.
 
26 " 'But the court will sit, and his power will be taken away and completely destroyed forever.
 
27 Then the sovereignty, power and greatness of the kingdoms under the whole heaven will be handed over to the saints, the people of the Most High. His kingdom will be an everlasting kingdom, and all rulers will worship and obey him.'
 
28 "This is the end of the matter. I, Daniel, was deeply troubled by my thoughts, and my face turned pale, but I kept the matter to myself."

 


Psalm 114, 115

1 When Israel came out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of foreign tongue,
 
2 Judah became God's sanctuary, Israel his dominion.
 
3 The sea looked and fled, the Jordan turned back;
 
4 the mountains skipped like rams, the hills like lambs.
 
5 Why was it, O sea, that you fled, O Jordan, that you turned back,
 
6 you mountains, that you skipped like rams, you hills, like lambs?
 
7 Tremble, O earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob,
 
8 who turned the rock into a pool, the hard rock into springs of water.

 

1 Not to us, O LORD, not to us but to your name be the glory, because of your love and faithfulness.
 
2 Why do the nations say, "Where is their God?"
 
3 Our God is in heaven; he does whatever pleases him.
 
4 But their idols are silver and gold, made by the hands of men.
 
5 They have mouths, but cannot speak, eyes, but they cannot see;
 
6 they have ears, but cannot hear, noses, but they cannot smell;
 
7 they have hands, but cannot feel, feet, but they cannot walk; nor can they utter a sound with their throats.
 
8 Those who make them will be like them, and so will all who trust in them.
 
9 O house of Israel, trust in the LORD-he is their help and shield.
 
10 O house of Aaron, trust in the LORD-he is their help and shield.
 
11 You who fear him, trust in the LORD-he is their help and shield.
 
12 The LORD remembers us and will bless us: He will bless the house of Israel, he will bless the house of Aaron,
 
13 he will bless those who fear the LORD-small and great alike.
 
14 May the LORD make you increase, both you and your children.
 
15 May you be blessed by the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth.
 
16 The highest heavens belong to the LORD, but the earth he has given to man.
 
17 It is not the dead who praise the LORD, those who go down to silence;
 
18 it is we who extol the LORD, both now and forevermore. Praise the LORD.
