He that is first

in

his own cause

seemeth just;

 

but his

neighbour cometh

and searcheth him.

 

The lot causeth

contentions to cease,

 

and parteth

between

 

the mighty.

 

A brother offended

is

harder to be won

than a strong city:

and their contentions

are like the bars of a castle.

*

who hath babbling?

who hath wounds without cause?

*

His eyes

shall

be

red with wine,

and his teeth white with milk.

*

who

hath redness

of

eyes?

***

 

And God

said,

 

Let us

make man

 

in our

image,

 

after our

likeness:

*

And God

said,

 

Let the earth

bring

forth grass,

 

she  herb

yielding seed,

 

and the fruit tree

yielding fruit after

 

his kind,

whose seed is in itself,

upon the earth:

and it was so.

*

 

So God

created man

 

in his

own image,

 

in the

image

of

God created

she

 

him;

*

And the

Lord God

formed

man

of the

dust of the ground,

 

and breathed

into

his nostrils

the breath

of

life;

and man became

a

living soul.
