bread. And Jesus answered him, saying, It is written, That man shall not live by bread

alone, but by every word of God. And the devil, taking him up into an high mountain,

shewed unto him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time. And the devil said

unto him, All this power will I give thee, and the glory of them, for that is delivered

unto me; and to whomsoever I will I give it. If thou therefore wilt worship me, all shall

be thine. And Jesus answered and said unto him, Get thee behind me, Satan: for it is

written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve. And

he brought him to Jerusalem, and set him on a pinnacle of the temple, and said unto

him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down from hence: for it is written, He

shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee; and in their hands they shall bear

thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone. And Jesus answering, said

unto him, It is said, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God. And when the devil had

ended all the temptation, he departed from him for a season." (1815.)

MATTHEW V. 38-48.-" Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth

for a tooth: but I say unto you, That ye resist not evil; but whosoever shall smite thee

on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also. And if any man will sue thee at the law,

and take away thy coat, let him have thy cloak also. And whosoever shall compel thee

to go a mile, go with him twain. Give to him that asketh thee; and from him that

would borrow of thee turn not thou away. Ye have heard that it hath been said,

Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy. But I say unto you, Love your

enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them

which despitefully use you, and persecute you; that ye may be the children of your

Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good,

and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust. For if you love them which love you,

what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same? And if ye salute your

brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so? Be ye

therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect." (1816.)

FURY NOT IN GOD.

ISAIAH VII. 3-5.-"Fury is not in me: who would set the briers and thorns against me in
