17:9 He gave them to glory in his marvellous acts for ever, that they might declare his works with understanding.

17:10 And the elect shall praise his holy name.

17:11 Beside this he gave them knowledge, and the law of life for an heritage.

17:12 He made an everlasting covenant with them, and shewed them his judgments.

17:13 Their eyes saw the majesty of his glory, and their ears heard his glorious voice.

17:14 And he said unto them, Beware of all unrighteousness; and he gave every man commandment concerning his neighbour.

17:15 Their ways are ever before him, and shall not be hid from his eyes.

17:16 Every man from his youth is given to evil; neither could they make to themselves fleshy hearts for stony.

17:17 For in the division of the nations of the whole earth he set a ruler over every people; but Israel is the Lord’s portion:

17:18 Whom, being his firstborn, he nourisheth with discipline, and giving him the light of his love doth not forsake him.
