- God:
- "Receive,ª° I pray thee,¹ the lawª from his mouth,ª¹ and lay upª° his wordsª in thine heart.ª ... Thou shalt make thy prayerª° unto¹ him, and he shall hearª° thee, and thou shalt payª° thy vows.ª" {Job 22:22-27} + "For¹ what¹ [is] the hopeª of the hypocrite,ª though¹ he hath gained,ª° when¹ Godª taketh awayª° his soul?ª ... Will Godª hearª° his cryª when¹ troubleª comethª° upon¹ him?" {Job 27:8-9} + "The sacrificeª of the wickedª [is] an abominationª to the LORD:ª but the prayerª of the uprightª [is] his delight.ª" {Prv 15:8} + "The LORDª [is] farª from the wicked:ª¹ but he hearethª° the prayerª of the righteous.ª" {Prv 15:29} + "He that turneth awayª° his earª from hearingª°¹ the law,ª even¹ his prayerª [shall be] abomination.ª" {Prv 28:9} + "Keepª° thy footª when¹ thou goest²°¹ to¹ the houseª of God,ª and be more ready²¹ to hear,ª° than to giveª°¹ the sacrificeª of fools:ª for they considerª° not¹ that¹ they doª° evil.ª ... For¹ a dreamª comethª° through the multitudeª of business;ª and a fool'sª voiceª [is known] by multitudeª of words.ª" {Ecc 5:1-3} + "And when ye spread forthª° your hands,ª I will hideª° mine eyesª from¹ you: yea,¹ when¹ ye make manyª° prayers,ª I will not¹ hear:ª° your handsª are fullª° of blood.ª" {Isa 1:15} + "Therefore¹ thus¹ saithª° the LORD,ª Behold,¹ I will bringª° evilª upon¹ them, which¹ they shall not¹ be ableª° to escape;ª°¹ and though they shall cryª° unto¹ me, I will not¹ hearkenª° unto¹ them." {Jer 11:11} + "And they have not¹ criedª° unto¹ me with their heart,ª when¹ they howledª° upon¹ their beds:ª they assemble²° themselves¹ for¹ cornª and wine,ª [and] they rebelª° against me." {Hsa 7:14} + "Israelª shall cryª° unto me, My God,ª we knowª° thee. ... Israelª hath cast offª° [the thing that is] good:ª the enemyª° shall pursueª° him." {Hsa 8:2-3} + "Butª when ye pray,ª° use²° not² vain repetitions,ª°¹ asª the¹ heathenª [do]: forª they thinkª° thatª they shall be heardª° forª their²¹ much speaking.ª" {Mtt 6:7} + "Andª he¹ saidª° unto her,ª Whatª wilt¹ thou?²° She saithª° unto him,ª Grantª° thatª theseª myª twoª sonsª may sit,ª° the oneª onª thyª right hand,ª andª the otherª onª the left,ª inª thyª kingdom.ª ... Butª Jesusª answeredª° and said,ª° Ye knowª° notª whatª ye ask.ª° Are ye ableª° to drinkª° of the¹ cupª thatª Iª shallª° drink¹ of,²° andª to be baptizedª° with the¹ baptismª thatª Iª am baptized¹ with?²° They sayª° unto him,ª We are able.ª°" {Mtt 20:21-22} + "Ye ask,ª° andª receiveª° not,ª becauseª ye askª° amiss,ª thatª ye may consumeª° [it] uponª yourª lusts.ª" {Jms 4:3}
