1 Corinthians 9:19–10:13

19
 For though I [Paul] be free from all
men,
yet have I made myself servant unto all, that I might gain the more.
20
 And unto the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain the Jews; to them that are under the law, as under the law, that I might gain them that are under the law;
21
 to them that are without law, as without law, (being not without law to God, but under the law to Christ,) that I might gain them that are without law.
22
 To the weak became I as weak, that I might gain the weak: I am made all things to all
men,
that I might by all means save some.
23
 And this I do for the gospel's sake, that I might be partaker thereof with
you.

24
 Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain.
25
 And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they
do it
to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible.
26
 I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air:
27
 but I keep under my body, and bring
it
into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.

10:
1
 Moreover, brethren, I would not that ye should be ignorant, how that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea;
2
 and were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea;
3
 and did all eat the same spiritual meat;
4
 and did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ.
5
 But with many of them God was not well pleased: for they were overthrown in the wilderness.

6
 Now these things were our examples, to the intent we should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted.
7
 Neither be ye idolaters, as
were
some of them; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.
8
 Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them committed, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand.
9
 Neither let us tempt Christ, as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed of serpents.
10
 Neither murmur ye, as some of them also murmured, and were destroyed of the destroyer.
11
 Now all these things happened unto them for ensamples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come.

12
 Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall.
13
 There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God
is
faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear
it.

Psalm 34:1-10

A Psalm
of David, when he changed his behaviour before Abimelech; who drove him away, and he departed.

1
 I will bless the L
ORD
at all times: his praise
shall
continually
be
in my mouth.

2
 My soul shall make her boast in the L
ORD
: the humble shall hear
thereof,
and be glad.

3
 O magnify the L
ORD
with me, and let us exalt his name together.

4
 I sought the L
ORD
, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears.

5
 They looked unto him, and were lightened: and their faces were not ashamed.

6
 This poor man cried, and the L
ORD
heard
him,
and saved him out of all his troubles.

7
 The angel of the L
ORD
encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them.

8
 O taste and see that the L
ORD
is
good: blessed
is
the man
that
trusteth in him.

9
 O fear the L
ORD
, ye his saints: for
there is
no want to them that fear him.

10
 The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger: but they that seek the L
ORD
shall not want any good
thing.

Proverbs 21:13

13
 Whoso stoppeth his ears at the cry of the poor, he also shall cry himself, but shall not be heard.

Nehemiah 11:1–12:26

cities.
2
 And the people blessed all the men, that willingly offered themselves to dwell at Jerusalem.

3
 Now these

was
Uzzi the son of Bani, the son of Hashabiah, the son of Mattaniah, the son of Micha. Of the sons of Asaph, the singers
