53:1 Who has believed our message? To whom has the arm of the LORD been revealed?

53:2 For he grew up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of dry ground. He has no good looks or majesty. When we see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him.

53:3 He was despised, and rejected by men; a man of suffering, and acquainted with disease. He was despised as one from whom men hide their face; and we didn’t respect him.

53:4 Surely he has borne our sickness, and carried our suffering; yet we considered him plagued, struck by God, and afflicted.

53:5 But he was pierced for our transgressions. He was crushed for our iniquities. The punishment that brought our peace was on him; and by his wounds we are healed.

53:6 All we like sheep have gone astray. Everyone has turned to his own way; and the LORD has laid on him the iniquity of us all.

53:7 He was oppressed, yet when he was afflicted he didn’t open his mouth. As a lamb that is led to the slaughter, and as a sheep that before its shearers is mute, so he didn’t open his mouth.

53:8 He was taken away by oppression and judgment; and as for his generation, who considered that he was cut off out of the land of the living and stricken for the disobedience of my people?

53:9 They made his grave with the wicked, and with a rich man in his death; although he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth.

53:10 Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise him. He has caused him to suffer. When you make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed. He shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the LORD shall prosper in his hand.

53:11 After the suffering of his soul, he will see the light and be satisfied. My righteous servant will justify many by the knowledge of himself; and he will bear their iniquities.


53:12 Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he poured out his soul to death, and was numbered with the transgressors; yet he bore the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.

1:20 Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the Torah scholar of this world? Hasn’t God made foolish the wisdom of this world?

1:21 For seeing that in the wisdom of God, the world through its wisdom didn’t know God, it was God’s good pleasure through the foolishness of the proclaiming to save those who believe.

1:22 For Jews ask for signs, Greeks seek after wisdom,

1:23 but we proclaim Messiah crucified; a stumbling block to Jews, and foolishness to Greeks,

1:24 but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Messiah is the power of God and the wisdom of God.

1:25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men.

1:26 For you see your calling, brothers, that not many are wise according to the flesh, not many mighty, and not many noble;

1:27 but God chose the foolish things of the world that he might put to shame those who are wise. God chose the weak things of the world, that he might put to shame the things that are strong;

1:28 and God chose the lowly things of the world, and the things that are despised, and the things that are not, that he might bring to nothing the things that are:

1:29 that no flesh should boast before God.

1:30 But of him, you are in Messiah Yeshua, who was made to us wisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification, and redemption:

1:31 that, according as it is written, “He who boasts, let him boast in the Lord.”

2:1 When I came to you, brothers, I didn’t come with excellence of speech or of wisdom, proclaiming to you the testimony of God.

2:2 For I determined not to know anything among you, except Yeshua the Messiah, and him crucified.

2:3 I was with you in weakness, in fear, and in much trembling.

2:4 My speech and my proclaiming were not in persuasive words of human wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power,

2:5 that your faith wouldn’t stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.

John 3:16 says
For God so loved the world
That He gave His one and only Son
That whoever believes in Him
Should not perish, but have eternal life
Yes we praise You Lord!

VERSE
There's an answer to the question
There's a reason for the rhyme

Sins washed away as we repent
And all the saints sing

CHORUS
Yehovah's only Son
His name's Yeshua

As one new man embracing Good News

CHORUS

5:1 After these things, there was a Jewish festival, and Yeshua went up to Jerusalem.

5:2 Now in Jerusalem by the sheep gate, there is a pool, which is called in Hebrew, “Bethesda,” having five porches.

5:3 In these lay a great multitude of those who were sick, blind, lame, or paralyzed, waiting for the moving of the water;

5:4 for an angel went down at certain times into the pool, and stirred up the water. Whoever stepped in first after the stirring of the water was made whole of whatever disease he had.

5:5 A certain man was there, who had been sick for thirty-eight years.

5:6 When Yeshua saw him lying there, and knew that he had been sick for a long time, he asked him, “Do you want to be made well?”

5:7 The sick man answered him, “Sir, I have no one to put me into the pool when the water is stirred up, but while I’m coming, another steps down before me.”

5:8 Yeshua said to him, “Arise, take up your mat, and walk.”

5:9 Immediately, the man was made well, and took up his mat and walked. Now it was the Sabbath on that day.

5:10 So the Judeans said to him who was cured, “It is the Sabbath. It is not lawful for you to carry the mat.”

5:11 He answered them, “He who made me well, the same said to me, ‘Take up your mat, and walk.’”

5:12 Then they asked him, “Who is the man who said to you, ‘Take up your mat, and walk’?”

5:13 But he who was healed didn’t know who it was, for Yeshua had withdrawn, a crowd being in the place.

5:14 Afterward Yeshua found him in the temple, and said to him, “Behold, you are made well. Sin no more, so that nothing worse happens to you.”

5:15 The man went away, and told the Judeans that it was Yeshua who had made him well.

5:16 For this cause the Judeans persecuted Yeshua, and sought to kill him, because he did these things on the Sabbath.

5:17 But Yeshua answered them, “My Father is still working, so I am working, too.”

5:18 For this cause therefore the Judeans sought all the more to kill him, because he not only broke the Sabbath, but also called God his own Father, making himself equal with God.

5:19 Yeshua therefore answered them, “Most certainly, I tell you, the Son can do nothing of himself, but what he sees the Father doing. For whatever things he does, these the Son also does likewise.

5:20 For the Father has affection for the Son, and shows him all things that he himself does. He will show him greater works than these, that you may marvel.

5:21 For as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, even so the Son also gives life to whom he desires.

5:22 For the Father judges no one, but he has given all judgment to the Son,

5:23 that all may honor the Son, even as they honor the Father. He who doesn’t honor the Son doesn’t honor the Father who sent him.

5:24 “Most certainly I tell you, he who hears my word, and believes him who sent me, has eternal life, and doesn’t come into judgment, but has passed out of death into life.

5:25 Most certainly, I tell you, the hour comes, and now is, when the dead will hear the Son of God’s voice; and those who hear will live.

5:26 For as the Father has life in himself, even so he gave to the Son also to have life in himself.

5:27 He also gave him authority to execute judgment, because he is a son of man.

5:28 Don’t marvel at this, for the hour comes, in which all that are in the tombs will hear his voice,

5:29 and will come out; those who have done good, to the resurrection of life; and those who have done evil, to the resurrection of judgment.

5:30 I can of myself do nothing. As I hear, I judge, and my judgment is righteous; because I don’t seek my own will, but the will of my Father who sent me.

5:31 “If I testify about myself, my witness is not valid.

5:32 It is another who testifies about me. I know that the testimony which he testifies about me is true.

5:33 You have sent to Yochanan, and he has testified to the truth.

5:34 But the testimony which I receive is not from man. However, I say these things that you may be saved.

5:35 He was the burning and shining lamp, and you were willing to rejoice for a while in his light.

5:36 But the testimony which I have is greater than that of Yochanan, for the works which the Father gave me to accomplish, the very works that I do, testify about me, that the Father has sent me.

5:37 The Father himself, who sent me, has testified about me. You have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his form.

5:38 You don’t have his word living in you; because you don’t believe him whom he sent.

5:39 “You search the Scriptures, because you think that in them you have eternal life; and these are they which testify about me.

5:40 Yet you will not come to me, that you may have life.

5:41 I don’t receive glory from men.

5:42 But I know you, that you don’t have God’s love in yourselves.

5:43 I have come in my Father’s name, and you don’t receive me. If another comes in his own name, you will receive him.

5:44 How can you believe, who receive glory from one another, and you don’t seek the glory that comes from the only God?

5:45 “Don’t think that I will accuse you to the Father. There is one who accuses you, even Moses, on whom you have set your hope.

5:46 For if you believed Moses, you would believe me; for he wrote about me.

5:47 But if you don’t believe his writings, how will you believe my words?”

13:13 Now Paul and his company set sail from Paphos, and came to Perga in Pamphylia. Yochanan departed from them and returned to Jerusalem.

13:14 But they, passing on from Perga, came to Antioch of Pisidia. They went into the synagogue on the Sabbath day, and sat down.

13:15 After the reading of the Torah and the Prophets, the rulers of the synagogue sent to them, saying, “Brothers, if you have any word of exhortation for the people, speak.”

13:16 Paul stood up, and beckoning with his hand said, “Men of Israel, and you who fear God, listen.

13:17 The God of this people chose our fathers, and exalted the people when they stayed as aliens in the land of Egypt, and with an uplifted arm, he led them out of it.

13:18 For a period of about forty years he put up with them in the wilderness.

13:19 When he had destroyed seven nations in the land of Canaan, he gave them their land for an inheritance, for about four hundred fifty years.

13:20 After these things he gave them judges until Samuel the prophet.

13:21 Afterward they asked for a king, and God gave to them Saul the son of Kish, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, for forty years.

13:22 When he had removed him, he raised up David to be their king, to whom he also testified, ‘I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after my heart, who will do all my will.’

13:23 From this man’s seed, God has brought salvation to Israel according to his promise,

13:24 before his coming, when Yochanan had first preached the immersion of repentance to Israel.

13:25 As Yochanan was fulfilling his course, he said, ‘What do you suppose that I am? I am not he. But behold, one comes after me the sandals of whose feet I am not worthy to untie.’
13:26 Brothers, children of the stock of Abraham, and those among you who fear God, the word of this salvation is sent out to you.

13:27 For those who dwell in Jerusalem, and their rulers, because they didn’t know him, nor the voices of the prophets which are read every Sabbath, fulfilled them by condemning him.

13:28 Though they found no cause for death, they still asked Pilate to have him killed.

13:29 When they had fulfilled all things that were written about him, they took him down from the tree, and laid him in a tomb.

13:30 But God raised him from the dead,

13:31 and he was seen for many days by those who came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are his witnesses to the people.

13:32 We bring you good news of the promise made to the fathers,

13:33 that God has fulfilled the same to us, their children, in that he raised up Yeshua. As it is also written in the second psalm, ‘You are my Son. Today I have become your father.’

13:34 “Concerning that he raised him up from the dead, now no more to return to corruption, he has spoken thus: ‘I will give you the holy and sure blessings of David.’

13:35 Therefore he says also in another psalm, ‘You will not allow your Holy One to see decay.’

13:36 For David, after he had in his own generation served the counsel of God, fell asleep, and was laid with his fathers, and saw decay.

13:37 But he whom God raised up saw no decay.

13:38 Be it known to you therefore, brothers, that through this man is proclaimed to you remission of sins,

13:39 and by him everyone who believes is justified from all things, from which you could not be justified by the Torah of Moses.

13:40 Beware therefore, lest that come on you which is spoken in the Prophets:

13:41 ‘Behold, you scoffers, and wonder, and perish; for I work a work in your days, a work which you will in no way believe, if one declares it to you.’”

13:42 So when the Jews went out of the synagogue, the Gentiles begged that these words might be preached to them the next Sabbath.

13:43 Now when the synagogue broke up, many of the Jews and of the devout proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas; who, speaking to them, urged them to continue in the grace of God.

13:44 The next Sabbath almost the whole city was gathered together to hear the word of God.

13:45 But when the Jews saw the multitudes, they were filled with jealousy, and contradicted the things which were spoken by Paul, and blasphemed.

13:46 Paul and Barnabas spoke out boldly, and said, “It was necessary that God’s word should be spoken to you first. Since indeed you thrust it from you, and judge yourselves unworthy of eternal life, behold, we turn to the Gentiles.

13:47 For so has the Lord commanded us, saying, ‘I have set you as a light for the Gentiles, that you should bring salvation to the uttermost parts of the earth.’”*

13:48 As the Gentiles heard this, they were glad, and glorified the word of God. As many as were appointed to eternal life believed.

13:49 The Lord’s word was spread abroad throughout all the region.

13:50 But the Jews stirred up the devout and prominent women and the chief men of the city, and stirred up a persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and threw them out of their borders.

13:51 But they shook off the dust of their feet against them, and came to Iconium.

13:52 The disciples were filled with joy with the Holy Spirit.

 

 

4:1 I command you therefore before God and the Lord Yeshua the Messiah, who will judge the living and the dead at his appearing and his Kingdom:

4:2 proclaim the word; be urgent in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, and exhort, with all patience and teaching.

4:3 For the time will come when they will not listen to the sound doctrine, but, having itching ears, will heap up for themselves teachers after their own lusts;

4:4 and will turn away their ears from the truth, and turn aside to fables.

4:5 But you be sober in all things, suffer hardship, do the work of an evangelist, and fulfill your ministry.

4:6 For I am already being offered, and the time of my departure has come.

4:7 I have fought the good fight. I have finished the course. I have kept the faith.

4:8 From now on, there is stored up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, will give to me on that day; and not to me only, but also to all those who have loved his appearing.

16:19 “Now there was a certain rich man, and he was clothed in purple and fine linen, living in luxury every day.

16:20 A certain beggar, named Lazarus, was laid at his gate, full of sores,

16:21 and desiring to be fed with the crumbs that fell from the rich man’s table. Yes, even the dogs came and licked his sores.

16:22 It happened that the beggar died, and that he was carried away by the angels to Abraham’s bosom. The rich man also died, and was buried.

16:23 In Sheol, he lifted up his eyes, being in torment, and saw Abraham far off, and Lazarus at his bosom.

16:24 He cried and said, ‘Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue! For I am in anguish in this flame.’

16:25 “But Abraham said, ‘Son, remember that you, in your lifetime, received your good things, and Lazarus, in the same way, bad things. But now here he is comforted and you are in anguish.

16:26 Besides all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed, that those who want to pass from here to you are not able, and that none may cross over from there to us.’

16:27 “He said, ‘I ask you therefore, father, that you would send him to my father’s house; 16:28 for I have five brothers, that he may testify to them, so they won’t also come into this place of torment.’

16:29 “But Abraham said to him, ‘They have Moses and the Prophets. Let them listen to them.’

16:30 “He said, ‘No, father Abraham, but if one goes to them from the dead, they will repent.’

16:31 “He said to him, ‘If they don’t listen to Moses and the Prophets, neither will they be persuaded if one rises from the dead.’”
