VOLUME ONE - CHAPTER 19
Thus
says the LORD; I will certainly return unto you according to the time of
life; and your wife shall have a son. Is any thing too hard for the LORD?
At the time appointed, I return unto you, according to the time of life.
Fear not, this season is the time of life, and you shall embrace a son,
according to the time of life.
A time to be born, to plant, and to heal; A time to build up, to laugh,
and to dance; A time to gather stones together, to embrace, to get, and
to keep; A time to sew, and to speak; A time to love, and a time of peace.
The flowers appear on the earth, the time of the singing is come, and
the voice of the turtle is heard in our land; the fig tree put forth her
green figs; and the vines, the tender grapes give a smell. Arise, my love,
my fair one, and come away.
Jerusalem is the throne of the LORD, all nations gather unto it, to the
name of the LORD, to Jerusalem: the God of all the families and all people.
In this day, and at this time, will I cause the Branch of righteousness
to grow up; and he shall execute judgment and righteousness in the land.
The morning is come unto you, O you that dwells in the land, the time
is come. The time is come, the day draws near, behold, your time, the
time of love. He shall enter peaceably even upon the fattest places of
the province; he shall scatter among them the prey, and spoil, and riches,
the great prince stands for the children of your people. And now the people
shall be delivered, and knowledge shall be increased.
The LORD shall make bright clouds, and give showers of rain. But it shall
be one day, which shall be known to the LORD, not day, nor night: but
it shall come to pass, at evening time it shall be light, for I will appear
in the cloud upon the mercy seat. And wisdom and knowledge shall be the
stability of your times and the strength of salvation. The LORD made not
this covenant with our fathers, but with us, us, who are all of us here
alive this day.
Gather together, hear my words, and see the goodness of the LORD in the
land of the living. Come and appear before God, walking before God in
the light of the living: the book of the living, written with the righteous.
Consider, all the living which walk under the sun, the second child stands
up in his stead: A fountain of the gardens, a well of living waters, and
streams from Lebanon. But the LORD God, the true God, the living God,
and an everlasting king, and in the place where it was said, You are not
my people, it shall be said, you are the sons of the living God.
