12  And then shall it come to pass, that the spirits of those who are righteous are received into a state of happiness, which is called paradise, a state of rest, a state of ^cpeace, where they shall rest from all their troubles and from all care, and sorrow.

  3  Incline your ear, and ^acome unto me: hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David.

  6  ^aSeek the Lord, and ye shall live; lest he break out like fire in the house of Joseph, and devour it, and there be none to quench it in Beth-el.

  63  Draw near unto me and I will draw near unto you; seek me diligently and ye shall find me; ask, and ye shall receive; knock, and it shall be opened unto you.

  38  And ^aseek the face of the Lord always, that in patience ye may possess your souls, and ye shall have eternal life.

  7  The Lord shall preserve thee from all evil: he shall ^apreserve thy soul.

  6  And even so will I gather mine elect from the ^bfour quarters of the earth, even as many as will believe in me, and hearken unto my voice.

  20  Behold therefore, I will gather thee unto thy fathers, and thou shalt be gathered into thy grave in ^apeace; and thine eyes shall not see all the evil which I will bring upon this place. And they brought the king word again.
