    And the sons of Kohath by their families; Amram, and Izehar, Hebron,
    and Uzziel. The righteousness of the upright shall deliver them: but transgressors shall be taken in their own naughtiness. The children
    of Ramah and Gaba, six hundred twenty and one. And he said, Blessed
    be the LORD God of Israel, who hath with his hands fulfilled that
    which he spake with his mouth to my father David, saying, Since the
    day that I brought forth my people out of the land of Egypt I chose
    no city among all the tribes of Israel to build an house in, that my
    name might be there; neither chose I any man to be a ruler over my
    people Israel: But I have chosen Jerusalem, that my name might be
    there; and have chosen David to be over my people Now it was in the
    heart of David my father to build an house for the name of the LORD
    God of But the LORD said to David my father, Forasmuch as it was in
    thine heart to build an house for my name, thou didst well in that
    it was in thine heart: Notwithstanding thou shalt not build the
    house; but thy son which shall come forth out of thy loins, he shall
    build the house for my name.

    Though I might also have confidence in the flesh. Having therefore
    obtained help of God, I continue unto this day, witnessing both to
    small and great, saying none other things than those which the
    prophets and Moses did say should come: That Christ should suffer,
    and that he should be the first that should rise from the dead, and
    should shew light unto the people, and to the Gentiles. And when
    Pharaoh drew nigh, the children of Israel lifted up their eyes, and,
    behold, the Egyptians marched after them; and they were sore afraid:
    and the children of Israel cried out unto the LORD. For which cause
    also I have been much hindered from coming to you. But after that
    the kindness and love of God our Saviour toward man appeared, Not by
    works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his
    mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of
    the Holy Ghost; Which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ
    our Saviour; That being justified by his grace, we should be made
    heirs according to the hope of eternal life.

    Then they cried unto the LORD in their trouble, and he saved them
    out of their distresses. He said unto him, I am a prophet also as
    thou art; and an angel spake unto me by the word of the LORD,
    saying, Bring him back with thee into thine house, that he may eat
    bread and drink water. Then all the captains of the forces, and
    Johanan the son of Kareah, and Jezaniah the son of Hoshaiah, and all
    the people from the least even unto the greatest, came near, And
    said unto Jeremiah the prophet, Let, we beseech thee, our
    supplication be accepted before thee, and pray for us unto the LORD
    thy God, even for all this remnant; (for we are left but a few of
    many, as thine eyes do behold us:) That the LORD thy God may shew us
    the way wherein we may walk, and the thing that we may do.
