⁸And there were many lights in the upper chamber, where they were gathered together.

²And to our beloved Apphia, and Archippus our fellowsoldier, and to the church in thy house:

¹How amiable are thy tabernacles, O LORD of hosts!

²My soul longeth, yea, even fainteth for the courts of the LORD: my heart and my flesh crieth out for the living God.

³Yea, the sparrow hath found an house, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay her young, even thine altars, O LORD of hosts, my King, and my God.

³⁴And afterward he read all the words of the law, the blessings and cursings, according to all that is written in the book of the law.

⁷And he took the book of the covenant, and read in the audience of the people: and they said, All that the LORD hath said will we do, and be obedient.

¹²These shall stand upon mount Gerizim to bless the people, when ye are come over Jordan; Simeon, and Levi, and Judah, and Issachar, and Joseph, and Benjamin:

And all the people stood to the covenant.
