Then they said,“ Come! Let’s devise plans against Jeremiah; for the law won’t perish from the priest, nor counsel from the wise, nor the word from the prophet. Come, and let’s strike him with the tongue, and let’s not give heed to any of his words.”

Deliver me, Yahweh, from the evil man. Preserve me from the violent man:those who devise mischief in their hearts. They continually gather themselves together for war.They have sharpened their tongues like a serpent. Viper’s poison is under their lips. Selah.Yahweh, keep me from the hands of the wicked. Preserve me from the violent men who have determined to trip my feet.The proud have hidden a snare for me, they have spread the cords of a net by the path. They have set traps for me. Selah.

The wicked watch the righteous, and seek to kill him.Yahweh will not leave him in his hand, nor condemn him when he is judged.

When it was day, some of the Jews banded together, and bound themselves under a curse, saying that they would neither eat nor drink until they had killed Paul.There were more than forty people who had made this conspiracy.They came to the chief priests and the elders, and said,“ We have bound ourselves under a great curse to taste nothing until we have killed Paul.Now therefore, you with the council inform the commanding officer that he should bring him down to you tomorrow, as though you were going to judge his case more exactly. We are ready to kill him before he comes near.”

Now when Herod saw Jesus, he was exceedingly glad, for he had wanted to see him for a long time, because he had heard many things about him. He hoped to see some miracle done by him.He questioned him with many words, but he gave no answers.The chief priests and the scribes stood, vehemently accusing him.Herod with his soldiers humiliated him and mocked him. Dressing him in luxurious clothing, they sent him back to Pilate.Herod and Pilate became friends with each other that very day, for before that they were enemies with each other.Pilate called together the chief priests, the rulers, and the people,and said to them,“ You brought this man to me as one that perverts the people, and behold, having examined him before you, I found no basis for a charge against this man concerning those things of which you accuse him.Neither has Herod, for I sent you to him, and see, nothing worthy of death has been done by him.I will therefore chastise him and release him.”

He swore to her,“ Whatever you shall ask of me, I will give you, up to half of my kingdom.”She went out, and said to her mother,“ What shall I ask?” She said,“ The head of John the Baptizer.”She came in immediately with haste to the king, and asked,“ I want you to give me right now the head of John the Baptizer on a platter.”

They will do these things because they have not known the Father, nor me.

Why not( as we are slanderously reported, and as some affirm that we say),“ Let’s do evil, that good may come?” Those who say so are justly condemned.

Then the princes said to the king,“ Please let this man be put to death; because he weakens the hands of the men of war who remain in this city, and the hands of all the people, in speaking such words to them: for this man doesn’t seek the welfare of this people, but harm.”

Hide me from the conspiracy of the wicked, from the noisy crowd of the ones doing evil;who sharpen their tongue like a sword, and aim their arrows, deadly words,to shoot innocent men from ambushes. They shoot at him suddenly and fearlessly.They encourage themselves in evil plans. They talk about laying snares secretly. They say,“ Who will see them?”They plot injustice, saying,“ We have made a perfect plan!” Surely man’s mind and heart are cunning.

and asked for letters from him to the synagogues of Damascus, that if he found any who were of the Way, whether men or women, he might bring them bound to Jerusalem.

Then the Ziphites came up to Saul to Gibeah, saying,“ Doesn’t David hide himself with us in the strongholds in the woods, in the hill of Hachilah, which is on the south of the desert?Now therefore, O king, come down. According to all the desire of your soul to come down; and our part will be to deliver him up into the king’s hand.”Saul said,“ You are blessed by Yahweh; for you have had compassion on me.

but their plot became known to Saul. They watched the gates both day and night that they might kill him,

“ I myself most certainly thought that I ought to do many things contrary to the name of Jesus of Nazareth.I also did this in Jerusalem. I both shut up many of the saints in prisons, having received authority from the chief priests, and when they were put to death I gave my vote against them.Punishing them often in all the synagogues, I tried to make them blaspheme. Being exceedingly enraged against them, I persecuted them even to foreign cities.
