Joshua 11:1–12:24
1And when Jabis the king of Asor heard, he sent to Jobab king of Maron, and to the king of Symoön, and to the king of Aziph, 2and to the kings who were by the great Sidon, to the hill country and to Araba opposite Keneroth, and to the plain, and to Phenaeddor, 3and to the Chananites on the coast eastward, and to the Amorites on the coast, and the Chettites, and the Pherezites, and the Jebusites in the mountain, and the Evites, and those dwelling under [mount] Aermon in the land Massyma. 4And they and their kings with them went forth, as the sand of the sea in multitude, and horses, and very many chariots. 5And all the kings assembled in person, and came to the same place, and encamped at the waters of Maron to war with Israel. 6And the Lord said to Joshua, Be not afraid of them, for to-morrow [at] this time I will put them to flight before Israel: thou shalt hough their horses, and burn their chariots with fire. 7And Joshua and all the men of war came upon them at the water of Maron suddenly; and they attacked them in the hill country. 8And the Lord delivered them into the power of Israel; and they smote them and pursued them to great Sidon, and to Maseron, and to the plains of Massoch eastward; and they destroyed them till there was not one of them left that survived. 9And Joshua did to them, as the Lord commanded him: he houghed their horses, and burned their chariots with fire. 10And Joshua returned at that time, and took Asor and her king; now Asor in former time was the chief of these kingdoms. 11And they slew with the sword all that breathed in it, and utterly destroyed them all, and there was no living thing left in it; and they burnt Asor with fire. 12And Joshua took all the cities of the kingdoms, and their kings, and slew them with the edge of the sword; and utterly slew them, as Moses the servant of the Lord commanded. 13But all the walled cities Israel burnt not; but Israel burnt Asor only. 14And the children of Israel took all its spoils to themselves; and they slew all the men with the edge of the sword, until he destroyed them; they left not one of them breathing. 15As the Lord commanded his servant Moses, even so Moses commanded Joshua; and so Joshua did, he transgressed no precept of all that Moses commanded him. 16And Joshua took all the hill country, and all the land of Nageb, and all the land of Gosom, and the plain country, and that toward the west, and the mountain of Israel and the low country by the mountain; 17from the mountain of Chelcha, and that which goes up to Seir, and as far as Balagad, and the plains of Libanus, under mount Aermon; and he took all their kings, and destroyed, and slew them. 18And for many days Joshua waged war with these kings. 19And there was no city which Israel took not; they took all in war. 20For it was of the Lord to harden their hearts to go forth to war against Israel, that they might be utterly destroyed, that mercy should not be granted to them, but that they should be utterly destroyed, as the Lord said to Moses. 21And Joshua came at that time, and utterly destroyed the Enakim out of the hill country, from Chebron and from Dabir, and from Anaboth, and from all the race of Israel, and from all the mountain of Juda with their cities; and Joshua utterly destroyed them. 22There was not [any one] left of the Enakim by the children of Israel, only there was left of them in Gaza, and in Gath, and in Aseldo. 23And Joshua took all the land, as the Lord commanded Moses; and Joshua gave them for an inheritance to Israel by division according to their tribes; and the land ceased from war. Chapter 121And these [are] the kings of the land, whom the children of Israel slew, and inherited their land beyond Jordan from the east, from the valley of Arnon to the mount of Aermon, and all the land of Araba on the east. 2Seon king of the Amorites, who dwelt in Esebon, ruling from Arnon, which is in the valley, on the side of the valley, and half of Galaad as far as Jaboc, the borders of the children of Ammon. 3And Araba as far as the sea of Chenereth eastward, and as far as the sea of Araba; the salt sea eastward [by] the way to Asimoth, from Thæman under Asedoth Phasga. 4And Og king of Basan, who dwelt in Astaroth and in Edrain, was left of the giants 5ruling from mount Aermon and from Secchai, and [over] all the land of Basan to the borders of Gergesi, and Machi, and the half of Galaad of the borders of Seon king of Esebon. 6Moses the servant of the Lord and the children of Israel smote them; and Moses gave them by way of inheritance to Ruben, and Gad, and to the half tribe of Manasse. 7And these [are] the kings of the Amorites, whom Joshua and the children of Israel slew beyond Jordan by the sea of Balagad in the plain of Libanus, and as far as the mountain of Chelcha, as men go up to Seir: and Joshua gave it to the tribes of Israel to inherit according to their portion; 8in the mountain, and in the plain, and in Araba, and in Asedoth, and in the wilderness, and Nageb; the Chettite, and the Amorite, and the Chananite, and the Pherezite, and the Evite, and the Jebusite. 9The king of Jericho, and the king of Gai, which is near Bæthel; 10the king of Jerusalem, the king of Chebron, 11the king of Jerimuth, the king of Lachis; 12the king of Ælam, the king of Gazer; 13the king of Dabir, the king of Gader: 14the king of Hermath, the king of Ader; 15the king of Lebna, the king of Odollam, 16the king of Elath, 17the king of Taphut, the king of Opher, 18the king of Ophec of Aroc, 19the king of Asom, 20the king of Symoön, the king of Mambroth, the king of Aziph, 21the king of Cades, the king of Zachac, 22the king of Maredoth, the king of Jecom of Chermel, 23the king of Odollam [belonging to] Phennealdor, the king of Gei of Galilee: 24the king of Thersa: all these [were] twenty-nine kings.

MT Psalm 44 = LXX Psalm 43 (standard offset).
4Gird thy sword upon thy thigh, O Mighty One, in thy comeliness, and in thy beauty; 5and bend [thy bow], and prosper, and reign, because of truth and meekness and righteousness; and thy right hand shall guide thee wonderfully. 6Thy weapons are sharpened, Mighty One, (the nations shall fall under thee) [they are] in the heart of the king's enemies. 7Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: the sceptre of thy kingdom is a sceptre of righteousness. 8Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity: therefore God, thy God, has anointed thee with the oil of gladness beyond thy fellows. 9Myrrh, and stacte, and cassia [are exhaled] from thy garments, [and] out of the ivory palaces, 10with which kings' daughters have gladdened thee for thine honour: the queen stood by on thy right hand, clothed in vesture wrought with gold, [and] arrayed in divers colours. 11Hear, O daughter, and see, and incline thine ear; forget also thy people, and thy father's house. 12Because the king has desired thy beauty; for he is thy Lord. 13And the daughter of Tyre shall adore him with gifts; the rich of the people of the land shall supplicate thy favour. 14All her glory [is that] of the daughter of the king of Esebon, robed [as she is] in golden fringed garments, 15in embroidered [clothing]: virgins shall be brought to the king after her: her fellows shall be brought to thee. 16They shall be brought with gladness and exultation: they shall be led into the king's temple. 17Instead of thy fathers children are born to thee: thou shalt make them princes over all the earth. 18They shall make mention of thy name from generation to generation: therefore shall the nations give thanks to thee for ever, even for ever and ever.

Proverbs 14:1–2
1Wise women build houses: but a foolish one digs [hers] down with her hands. 2He that walks uprightly fears the Lord; but he that is perverse in his ways shall be dishonoured.
New TestamentKing James Version
Luke 10:25–42
25And, behold, a certain lawyer stood up, and tempted him, saying, Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life? 26He said unto him, What is written in the law? how readest thou? 27And he answering said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbour as thyself. 28And he said unto him, Thou hast answered right: this do, and thou shalt live. 29But he, willing to justify himself, said unto Jesus, And who is my neighbour? 30And Jesus answering said, A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among thieves, which stripped him of his raiment, and wounded him, and departed, leaving him half dead. 31And by chance there came down a certain priest that way: and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side. 32And likewise a Levite, when he was at the place, came and looked on him, and passed by on the other side. 33But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was: and when he saw him, he had compassion on him, 34And went to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine, and set him on his own beast, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him. 35And on the morrow when he departed, he took out two pence, and gave them to the host, and said unto him, Take care of him; and whatsoever thou spendest more, when I come again, I will repay thee. 36Which now of these three, thinkest thou, was neighbour unto him that fell among the thieves? 37And he said, He that shewed mercy on him. Then said Jesus unto him, Go, and do thou likewise. 38Now it came to pass, as they went, that he entered into a certain village: and a certain woman named Martha received him into her house. 39And she had a sister called Mary, which also sat at Jesus’ feet, and heard his word. 40But Martha was cumbered about much serving, and came to him, and said, Lord, dost thou not care that my sister hath left me to serve alone? bid her therefore that she help me. 41And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things: 42But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her.
