M’Cheyne Bible Reading Plan
5 Now was there one Naaman, captain of the army of the king of Aram, a great man, and honorable in the sight of his lord, because by him the LORD had delivered the Aramites. He also was a mighty man and valiant, but a leper.
2 And the Aramites had gone out by bands and had taken a little maid from the land of Israel. And she served Naaman’s wife.
3 And she said to her mistress, “I wish my lord were with the Prophet that is in Samaria. He would soon deliver him of his leprosy.”
4 And he went in and told his lord, saying, “(Thus and thus) says the maid who is from the land of Israel.”
5 And the king of Aram said, “Go your way there. And I will send a letter to the king of Israel.” And he departed and took ten talents of silver with him, and six thousand pieces of gold, and ten changes of clothing,
6 and brought the letter to the king of Israel, which read to this effect, “Now when this letter has come to you, understand that I have sent you Naaman, my servant, so that you may heal him of his leprosy.”
7 And when the king of Israel had read the letter, he tore his clothes, and said, “Am I God, to kill and to give life that he sends to me, so that I could heal a man from his leprosy? Therefore, please consider and see how he seeks a quarrel against me.”
8 But when Elisha, the man of God, had heard that the king of Israel had torn his clothes, he sent to the king, saying, “Why have you torn your clothes? Let him come to me now, and he shall know that there is a Prophet in Israel.”
9 Then Naaman came with his horses, and with his chariots, and stood at the door of the house of Elisha.
10 And Elisha sent a messenger to him, saying, “Go and wash yourself in Jordan seven times, and your flesh shall come back to you, and you shall be cleansed.”
11 But Naaman was angry and went away, and said, “Behold, I thought to myself, ‘He will surely come out and stand and call on the Name of the LORD his God and put his hand on the place and heal the leprosy.’
12 “Are not Abanah and Pharpar, rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? May I not wash myself in them and be cleansed?” So, he turned and departed in displeasure.
13 But his servants came and spoke to him, and said, “Father, if the Prophet had commanded you a great thing, would you not have done it? How much more then, when he says to you, ‘Wash, and be clean?’”
14 Then he went down and washed himself seven times in Jordan, according to the saying of the man of God. And his flesh came back, like the flesh of a little child. And he was clean.
15 And he turned back to the man of God (he and all his company), and came and stood before him, and said, “Behold now, I know that there is no God in all the world but in Israel. Now, therefore, please receive a reward from your servant.”
16 But he said, “As the LORD lives (before Whom I stand), I will not receive it.” And he tried to persuade him to take it. But he refused.
17 Moreover, Naaman said, “Shall there not be given two mules’ load of this earth to your servant? For from now on, your servant will offer neither burnt sacrifice nor offering to any other god except to the LORD.
18 “In this may the LORD be merciful to your servant: that when my master goes into the House of Rimmon, to worship there, and leans on my hand, and I bow myself in the House of Rimmon—when I do bow down in the House of Rimmon—that the LORD be merciful to your servant in this point.”
19 To whom he said, “Go in peace.” So, he departed from him, about half a day’s journey of ground.
20 And Gehazi, the servant of Elisha, the man of God, said, “Behold, my master has spared this Aramite, Naaman, not receiving those things from his hand that he brought. As the LORD lives, I will run after him and take something from him.”
21 So, Gehazi followed speedily after Naaman. And when Naaman saw him running after him, he dismounted the chariot to meet him, and said, “Is all well?”
22 And he answered, “All is well. My master has sent me, saying, “Behold, two young men have come to me from Mount Ephraim, of the children of the Prophets. Please give them a talent of silver and two changes of clothes.”
23 And Naaman said, “Yes. Take two talents.” And he broke open some bundles and bound two talents of silver in two bags, with two changes of garments, and gave them to two of his servants, so that they might bear them before him.
24 And when he came to the tower, he took them out of their hands and laid them in the house and sent away the men. And they departed.
25 Then, he went in and stood before his master. And Elisha said to him, “Where did you go, Gehazi?” And he said, “Your servant went nowhere.”
26 But he said to him, “Did not my heart go with you when the man turned back from his chariot to meet you? Is this a time to take money, and to receive garments and olives and vineyards and sheep and oxen and menservants and maidservants?
27 “The leprosy, therefore, of Naaman shall cling to you, and to your seed, forever.” And he went out from his presence as a leper, white as snow.
2 Therefore, I encourage most of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all mankind;
2 for kings, and for all who are in authority. So that we may lead a quiet and a peaceable life, in all godliness and honesty.
3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior,
4 Who desires that all mankind should be saved and come to the acknowledgment of the Truth.
5 For there is one God - and one Mediator between God and man - Who is the man, Christ Jesus.
6 He gave Himself - a ransom for all - to be that testimony in due time.
7 To this I am ordained a preacher and an Apostle (I speak the truth in Christ, and do not lie), a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth.
8 Therefore, I desire that the men pray everywhere, lifting up pure hands without wrath or doubting;
9 also that the women clothe themselves in appropriate apparel, with discretion and modesty (not with braided hair or gold or pearls or costly garments,
10 but as becomes women who profess the fear of God with good works).
11 Let the woman learn in silence, with all subjection.
12 I do not permit a woman to teach or to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.
13 For Adam was formed first, then Eve.
14 And Adam was not deceived. But the woman, being deceived, was in transgression.
15 Nevertheless, through the bearing of children she shall be saved, if they continue in faith and love and holiness with modesty.
9 In the first year of Darius, the son of Ahasuerus, of the seed of the Medes; who was made king over the realm of the Chaldeans;
2 In the first year of his reign, I, Daniel, understood by the books of Jeremiah, the Prophet, the number of the years in which the LORD said He would accomplish seventy years in the desolations of Jerusalem.
3 And I turned my face to the Lord God, and sought by prayer and supplications, with fasting and sackcloth and ashes.
4 And I prayed to the LORD my God, and made my confession, saying, “Oh Lord God, Who are great and fearful, and keep Covenant and mercy toward those who love You, and toward those who keep Your Commandments,
5 “we have sinned and have committed iniquity, and have done wickedly. Yea, we have rebelled, and have departed from your Precepts, and from your Judgments.
6 “For we would not obey your servants, the Prophets; who spoke in your name to our kings, to our princes, and to our fathers, and to all the people of the land.
7 “O Lord, righteousness belongs to you; and to us, open shame, as appears this day to every man of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem; yea, to all Israel, both near and far off, through all the country where you have driven them because of the offenses they have committed against you.
8 “O Lord, to us belongs open shame – to our kings, to our princes, and to our fathers - because we have sinned against You.
9 “Yet compassion and forgiveness is in the Lord our God, even though we have rebelled against him.
10 “For we have not obeyed the voice of the LORD our God; to walk in his laws, which he has laid before us, by the ministry of his servants, the Prophets.
11 “Yea, all Israel has transgressed your Law, and has turned back, and has not heard your voice. Therefore, the curse is poured upon us, and the oath that is written in the Law of Moses, the servant of God, because we have sinned against him.
12 “And he has confirmed his words which he spoke against us, and against our judges who judged us, by bringing upon us a great plague. For under the whole heaven has there not been such as has been brought upon Jerusalem.
13 “All this plague has come upon us, as it is written in the Law of Moses. Yet made we not our prayer before the LORD our God, that we might turn from our iniquities and understand your truth.
14 “Therefore, the LORD has made ready the plague, and brought it upon us. For the LORD our God is righteous in all his works which he does. For we would not hear his voice.
15 “And now, O Lord our God, who has brought your people out of the land of Egypt with a mighty hand - and has gotten yourself renown, as appears this day - we have sinned. We have done wickedly.
16 “O Lord, according to all your righteousness, I beg you, let your anger and your wrath be turned away from your city, Jerusalem, your holy Mountain. Because of our sins, and for the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem and your people are a reproach to all that are around us.
17 “Now therefore, O our God, hear the prayer of your servant, and his supplications. And for the Lord’s sake, cause your face to shine upon your Sanctuary, which lies in ruins.
18 “O my God, incline your ear and hear. Open your eyes, and behold our desolations, and the city whereupon your Name is called. For we do not present our supplications before you for our own righteousness, but for your great tender mercies.
19 “O Lord, hear! O Lord, forgive! O Lord, consider, and do it! Do not delay, for your own sake, O my God. For your Name is called upon your city, and your people.”
20 And while I was speaking and praying, and confessing my sin, and the sin of my people Israel, and presented my supplication before the LORD my God for the holy Mountain of my God;
21 Yea, while I was speaking in prayer, the man, Gabriel, whom I had seen before in the vision, came flying, and touched me about the time of the evening offering.
22 And he informed me, and talked with me, and said, “O Daniel, I have now come forth to give you knowledge and understanding.
23 “At the beginning of your supplications, the commandment came forth. And I have come to show you, for you are greatly beloved. Therefore, understand the matter and consider the vision.
24 “Seventy weeks are determined upon your people, and upon your holy city; to finish the wickedness, and to seal up the sins, and to reconcile the iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy.
25 “Know therefore and understand that from the going forth of the commandment to build and restore the people, and to build Jerusalem to Messiah the Prince, shall be seven weeks and sixty-two weeks. And the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in a troublesome time.
26 “And after sixty-two weeks, Messiah shall be killed, and shall have nothing. And the people of the prince that shall come, shall destroy the city and the Sanctuary. And the end thereof shall be with a flood. And until the end of the battle, it shall be destroyed by desolations.
27 “And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week. And in the midst of the week, he shall cause the sacrifice and the offering to cease. And on the wing of the abominations, shall he make it desolate; even until the consummation determined shall be poured upon the desolate.”
117 All nations, praise the LORD! Praise Him, all people!
2 For His lovingkindness is great toward us; and the truth of the LORD endures forever. Praise the LORD!
118 Praise the LORD because He is good; for His mercy endures forever!
2 Let Israel now say, “His mercy endures forever!”
3 Let the House of Aaron now say, “His mercy endures forever!”
4 Let those who fear the LORD now say, “His mercy endures forever!”
5 I called upon the LORD in trouble; the LORD heard me and set me in a large place.
6 The LORD is with me. Therefore, I will not fear what man can do to me.
7 The LORD is with me among those who help me. Therefore, I shall see my desire upon my enemies.
8 It is better to trust in the LORD than to have confidence in man.
9 It is better to trust in the LORD than to have confidence in princes.
10 All nations have surrounded me; but in the Name of the LORD shall I destroy them.
11 They have surrounded me. Indeed, they have surrounded me; but in the Name of the LORD I shall destroy them.
12 They came around me like bees, but they were quenched as a fire of thorns; for in the Name of the LORD I shall destroy them.
13 You have thrust violently at me, so that I might fall; but the LORD has helped me.
14 The LORD is my strength and song; for He has been my deliverance.
15 The voice of joy and deliverance is in the tabernacles of the righteous. The right hand of the LORD has done valiantly.
16 The right hand of the LORD is exalted. The right hand of the LORD has done valiantly.
17 I shall not die, but live and declare the works of the LORD.
18 The LORD has chastened me severely; but He has not delivered me to death.
19 Open the gates of righteousness to me, so that I may go into them and praise the LORD.
20 This is the gate of the LORD. The righteous shall enter into it.
21 I will praise You; for You have heard me and have been my deliverance.
22 The Stone which the builders refused is the Head of the Corner.
23 This was the LORD’s doing. It is marvelous in our eyes,
24 This is the day the LORD has made. Let us rejoice and be glad in it!
25 O LORD, I beg You, save now! O LORD, I beg You, give prosperity now!
26 Blessed is he who comes in the Name of the LORD! We have blessed you out of the House of the LORD.
27 The LORD is mighty and has given us light. Bind the sacrifice to the horns of the altar with cords.
28 You are my God, and I will praise You! You are my God; therefore, I will exalt You!
29 Praise the LORD because He is good; for His mercy endures forever.
