And, behold, the courses of the priests And the Levites, even they shall be with thee for all the service of the house of God: And there shall be with thee for all manner of workmanship every willing skilful Man, for any manner of service: also the princes And all the people will be wholly at thy commandment.
Furthermore David the king said unto all the congregation, Solomon my son, whom alone God hath chosen, is yet young And tender, And the work is great: for the palace is not for Man, but for the LORD God.

Wherefore David blessed the LORD before all the congregation: And David said, Blessed be thou, LORD God of Israel our father, for ever And ever. Thine, O LORD, is the greatness, And the power, And the glory, And the victory, And the majesty: for all that is in the heaven And in the earth is thine; thine is the kingdom, O LORD, And thou art exalted as head above all. Both riches And honour come of thee, And thou reignest over all; And in thine hand is power And might; And in thine hand it is to make great, And to give strength unto all. Now therefore, our God, we thank thee, And praise thy glorious name. But who am I, And what is my people, that we should be able to offer so willingly after this sort? for all things come of thee, And of thine own have we given thee. For we are strangers before thee, And sojourners, as were all our fathers: our days on the earth are as a shadow, And there is none abiding. O LORD our God, all this store that we have prepared to build thee an house for thine holy name cometh of thine hand, And is all thine own. I know also, my God, that thou triest the heart, And hast pleasure in uprightness. As for me, in the uprightness of mine heart I have willingly offered all these things: And now have I seen with joy thy people, which are present here, to offer willingly unto thee. O LORD God of Abraham, Isaac, And of Israel, our fathers, keep this for ever in the imagination of the thoughts of the heart of thy people, And prepare their heart unto thee: And give unto Solomon my son a perfect heart, to keep thy commandments, thy testimonies, And thy statutes, And to do all these things, And to build the palace, for the which I have made provision. show less

Every Man also to whom God hath given riches And wealth, And hath given him power to eat thereof, And to take his portion, And to rejoice in his labour; this is the gift of God.

Then they came near, And spake before the king concerning the king's decree; Hast thou not signed a decree, that every Man that shall ask a petition of any God or Man within thirty days, save of thee, O king, shall be cast into the den of lions? The king answered And said, The thing is true, according to the law of the Medes And Persians, which altereth not.

But not as the offence, so also is the free gift. For if through the offence of one many be dead, much more the grace of God, And the gift by grace, which is by one Man, Jesus Christ, hath abounded unto many.
According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, And another buildeth thereon. But let every Man take heed how he buildeth thereupon.

Paul, an apostle, (not of men, neither by Man, but by Jesus Christ, And God the Father, who raised him from the dead;) And all the brethren which are with me, unto the churches of Galatia: Grace be to you And peace from God the Father, And from our Lord Jesus Christ, Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God And our Father: read more To whom be glory for ever And ever. Amen. I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, And would pervert the gospel of Christ. But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. As we said before, so say I now again, If any Man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed. For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ. But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after Man. For I neither received it of Man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ. For ye have heard of my conversation in time past in the Jews' religion, how that beyond measure I persecuted the church of God, And wasted it: And profited in the Jews' religion above many my equals in mine own nation, being more exceedingly zealous of the traditions of my fathers. But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother's womb, And called me by his grace, To reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the heathen; immediately I conferred not with flesh And blood: Neither went I up to Jerusalem to them which were apostles before me; but I went into Arabia, And returned again unto Damascus. Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to see Peter, And abode with him fifteen days. But other of the apostles saw I none, save James the Lord's brother. Now the things which I write unto you, behold, before God, I lie not. Afterwards I came into the regions of Syria And Cilicia; show less
Till we all come in the unity of the faith, And of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect Man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:
And that ye put on the new Man, which after God is created in righteousness And true holiness.
For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous Man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ And of God.
But thou, O Man of God, flee these things; And follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness.
But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory And honour; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every Man.
Looking diligently lest any Man fail of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, And thereby many be defiled;
But let it be the hidden Man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek And quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price.
But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: And be ready always to give an answer to every Man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness And fear:
If any Man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God; if any Man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God giveth: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise And dominion for ever And ever. Amen.
No Man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, And his love is perfected in us.
If a Man say, I love God, And hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen?
And she brought forth a Man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: And her child was caught up unto God, And to his throne.
And the temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God, And from his power; And no Man was able to enter into the temple, till the seven plagues of the seven angels were fulfilled.
And if any Man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, And out of the holy city, And from the things which are written in this book.
