2 Kings 6, 1 Timothy 3, Daniel 10, Psalm 119:1~24

 

2 Kings 6,

1 The company of the prophets said to Elisha, "Look, the place where we meet with you is too small for us.
 
2 Let us go to the Jordan, where each of us can get a pole; and let us build a place there for us to live." And he said, "Go."
 
3 Then one of them said, "Won't you please come with your servants?" "I will," Elisha replied.
 
4 And he went with them. They went to the Jordan and began to cut down trees.
 
5 As one of them was cutting down a tree, the iron axhead fell into the water. "Oh, my lord," he cried out, "it was borrowed!"
 
6 The man of God asked, "Where did it fall?" When he showed him the place, Elisha cut a stick and threw it there, and made the iron float.
 
7 "Lift it out," he said. Then the man reached out his hand and took it.
 
8 Now the king of Aram was at war with Israel. After conferring with his officers, he said, "I will set up my camp in such and such a place."
 
9 The man of God sent word to the king of Israel: "Beware of passing that place, because the Arameans are going down there."
 
10 So the king of Israel checked on the place indicated by the man of God. Time and again Elisha warned the king, so that he was on his guard in such places.
 
11 This enraged the king of Aram. He summoned his officers and demanded of them, "Will you not tell me which of us is on the side of the king of Israel?"
 
12 "None of us, my lord the king," said one of his officers, "but Elisha, the prophet who is in Israel, tells the king of Israel the very words you speak in your bedroom."
 
13 "Go, find out where he is," the king ordered, "so I can send men and capture him." The report came back: "He is in Dothan."
 
14 Then he sent horses and chariots and a strong force there. They went by night and surrounded the city.
 
15 When the servant of the man of God got up and went out early the next morning, an army with horses and chariots had surrounded the city. "Oh, my lord, what shall we do?" the servant asked.
 
16 "Don't be afraid," the prophet answered. "Those who are with us are more than those who are with them."
 
17 And Elisha prayed, "O LORD, open his eyes so he may see." Then the LORD opened the servant's eyes, and he looked and saw the hills full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha.
 
18 As the enemy came down toward him, Elisha prayed to the LORD, "Strike these people with blindness." So he struck them with blindness, as Elisha had asked.
 
19 Elisha told them, "This is not the road and this is not the city. Follow me, and I will lead you to the man you are looking for." And he led them to Samaria.
 
20 After they entered the city, Elisha said, "LORD, open the eyes of these men so they can see." Then the LORD opened their eyes and they looked, and there they were, inside Samaria.
 
21 When the king of Israel saw them, he asked Elisha, "Shall I kill them, my father? Shall I kill them?"
 
22 "Do not kill them," he answered. "Would you kill men you have captured with your own sword or bow? Set food and water before them so that they may eat and drink and then go back to their master."
 
23 So he prepared a great feast for them, and after they had finished eating and drinking, he sent them away, and they returned to their master. So the bands from Aram stopped raiding Israel's territory.
 
24 Some time later, Ben-Hadad king of Aram mobilized his entire army and marched up and laid siege to Samaria.
 
25 There was a great famine in the city; the siege lasted so long that a donkey's head sold for eighty shekels of silver, and a quarter of a cab of seed pods for five shekels.
 
26 As the king of Israel was passing by on the wall, a woman cried to him, "Help me, my lord the king!"
 
27 The king replied, "If the LORD does not help you, where can I get help for you? From the threshing floor? From the winepress?"
 
28 Then he asked her, "What's the matter?" She answered, "This woman said to me, 'Give up your son so we may eat him today, and tomorrow we'll eat my son.'
 
29 So we cooked my son and ate him. The next day I said to her, 'Give up your son so we may eat him,' but she had hidden him."
 
30 When the king heard the woman's words, he tore his robes. As he went along the wall, the people looked, and there, underneath, he had sackcloth on his body.
 
31 He said, "May God deal with me, be it ever so severely, if the head of Elisha son of Shaphat remains on his shoulders today!"
 
32 Now Elisha was sitting in his house, and the elders were sitting with him. The king sent a messenger ahead, but before he arrived, Elisha said to the elders, "Don't you see how this murderer is sending someone to cut off my head? Look, when the messenger comes, shut the door and hold it shut against him. Is not the sound of his master's footsteps behind him?"
 
33 While he was still talking to them, the messenger came down to him. And the king said, "This disaster is from the LORD. Why should I wait for the LORD any longer?"
 

    

 

1 Timothy 3,

1 Here is a trustworthy saying: If anyone sets his heart on being an overseer, he desires a noble task.
 
2 Now the overseer must be above reproach, the husband of but one wife, temperate, self-controlled, respectable, hospitable, able to teach,
 
3 not given to drunkenness, not violent but gentle, not quarrelsome, not a lover of money.
 
4 He must manage his own family well and see that his children obey him with proper respect.
 
5 (If anyone does not know how to manage his own family, how can he take care of God's church?)
 
6 He must not be a recent convert, or he may become conceited and fall under the same judgment as the devil.
 
7 He must also have a good reputation with outsiders, so that he will not fall into disgrace and into the devil's trap.
 
8 Deacons, likewise, are to be men worthy of respect, sincere, not indulging in much wine, and not pursuing dishonest gain.
 
9 They must keep hold of the deep truths of the faith with a clear conscience.
 
10 They must first be tested; and then if there is nothing against them, let them serve as deacons.
 
11 In the same way, their wives are to be women worthy of respect, not malicious talkers but temperate and trustworthy in everything.
 
12 A deacon must be the husband of but one wife and must manage his children and his household well.
 
13 Those who have served well gain an excellent standing and great assurance in their faith in Christ Jesus.
 
14 Although I hope to come to you soon, I am writing you these instructions so that,
 
15 if I am delayed, you will know how people ought to conduct themselves in God's household, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and foundation of the truth.
 
16 Beyond all question, the mystery of godliness is great: He appeared in a body, was vindicated by the Spirit, was seen by angels, was preached among the nations, was believed on in the world, was taken up in glory.
 

    
 
  
Daniel 10,

1 In the third year of Cyrus king of Persia, a revelation was given to Daniel (who was called Belteshazzar). Its message was true and it concerned a great war. The understanding of the message came to him in a vision.
 
2 At that time I, Daniel, mourned for three weeks.
 
3 I ate no choice food; no meat or wine touched my lips; and I used no lotions at all until the three weeks were over.
 
4 On the twenty-fourth day of the first month, as I was standing on the bank of the great river, the Tigris,
 
5 I looked up and there before me was a man dressed in linen, with a belt of the finest gold around his waist.
 
6 His body was like chrysolite, his face like lightning, his eyes like flaming torches, his arms and legs like the gleam of burnished bronze, and his voice like the sound of a multitude.
 
7 I, Daniel, was the only one who saw the vision; the men with me did not see it, but such terror overwhelmed them that they fled and hid themselves.
 
8 So I was left alone, gazing at this great vision; I had no strength left, my face turned deathly pale and I was helpless.
 
9 Then I heard him speaking, and as I listened to him, I fell into a deep sleep, my face to the ground.
 
10 A hand touched me and set me trembling on my hands and knees.
 
11 He said, "Daniel, you who are highly esteemed, consider carefully the words I am about to speak to you, and stand up, for I have now been sent to you." And when he said this to me, I stood up trembling.
 
12 Then he continued, "Do not be afraid, Daniel. Since the first day that you set your mind to gain understanding and to humble yourself before your God, your words were heard, and I have come in response to them.
 
13 But the prince of the Persian kingdom resisted me twenty-one days. Then Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me, because I was detained there with the king of Persia.
 
14 Now I have come to explain to you what will happen to your people in the future, for the vision concerns a time yet to come."
 
15 While he was saying this to me, I bowed with my face toward the ground and was speechless.
 
16 Then one who looked like a man touched my lips, and I opened my mouth and began to speak. I said to the one standing before me, "I am overcome with anguish because of the vision, my lord, and I am helpless.
 
17 How can I, your servant, talk with you, my lord? My strength is gone and I can hardly breathe."
 
18 Again the one who looked like a man touched me and gave me strength.
 
19 "Do not be afraid, O man highly esteemed," he said. "Peace! Be strong now; be strong." When he spoke to me, I was strengthened and said, "Speak, my lord, since you have given me strength."
 
20 So he said, "Do you know why I have come to you? Soon I will return to fight against the prince of Persia, and when I go, the prince of Greece will come;
 
21 but first I will tell you what is written in the Book of Truth. (No one supports me against them except Michael, your prince.
 

    

 

Psalm 119:1~24

1 Blessed are they whose ways are blameless, who walk according to the law of the LORD.
 
2 Blessed are they who keep his statutes and seek him with all their heart.
 
3 They do nothing wrong; they walk in his ways.
 
4 You have laid down precepts that are to be fully obeyed.
 
5 Oh, that my ways were steadfast in obeying your decrees!
 
6 Then I would not be put to shame when I consider all your commands.
 
7 I will praise you with an upright heart as I learn your righteous laws.
 
8 I will obey your decrees; do not utterly forsake me.
 
9 How can a young man keep his way pure? By living according to your word.
 
10 I seek you with all my heart; do not let me stray from your commands.
 
11 I have hidden your word in my heart that I might not sin against you.
 
12 Praise be to you, O LORD; teach me your decrees.
 
13 With my lips I recount all the laws that come from your mouth.
 
14 I rejoice in following your statutes as one rejoices in great riches.
 
15 I meditate on your precepts and consider your ways.
 
16 I delight in your decrees; I will not neglect your word.
 
17 Do good to your servant, and I will live; I will obey your word.
 
18 Open my eyes that I may see wonderful things in your law.
 
19 I am a stranger on earth; do not hide your commands from me.
 
20 My soul is consumed with longing for your laws at all times.
 
21 You rebuke the arrogant, who are cursed and who stray from your commands.
 
22 Remove from me scorn and contempt, for I keep your statutes.
 
23 Though rulers sit together and slander me, your servant will meditate on your decrees.
 
24 Your statutes are my delight; they are my counselors.
