For so says Jehovah, Creator of the heavens; He is God, forming the earth and making it; He makes it stand, not creating it empty, but forming it to be lived in. I am Jehovah, and there is none else. — Isiah 45: 18

Psalms 110
1 ¶ A Psalm of David. A declaration of Jehovah to my Lord: Sit at My right hand, until I place Your enemies as Your footstool.
2 Jehovah shall send the rod of Your strength out of Zion to rule in the midst of Your enemies.
3 Your people shall have willingnesses in the day of Your might; in the majesties of holiness; from the womb of the dawn, to You is the dew of Your youth.
4 Jehovah has sworn and will not repent: You are a priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek.
5 ¶ The Lord at Your right hand shatters kings in the day of His anger.
6 He shall judge among the nations; He shall fill with dead bodies; He shall shatter heads over much land.
7 He shall drink out of the torrent on the way; therefore, He shall lift up the head.

Psalms 2
1 ¶ Why have the nations raged and the peoples are meditating on vanity?
2 The kings of the earth set themselves; yea, the rulers have plotted together against Jehovah and His Anointed, saying,
3 We will break their bands in two, and throw off their cords from us.
4 He who sits in the heavens shall laugh; the Lord shall mock at them.
5 Then He will speak to them in His anger, and He will terrify them in His wrath;
6 Yea, I have set My king on My holy mount on Zion.
7 ¶ I will declare concerning the statute of Jehovah: He said to Me, You are My Son. Today I have begotten You.
8 Ask of Me, and I will give the nations as Your inheritance; and the uttermost parts of the earth as Your possession.
9 You shall break them with a rod of iron; You shall dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel.
10 ¶ Now, then, be wise, O kings; be taught, O judges of the earth:
11 Serve Jehovah with fear; yea, rejoice with trembling.
12 Kiss the Son, lest He be angry, and you perish from the way, when His wrath is kindled but a little. Oh the blessings of all those who flee to Him for refuge!

Psalms 37: 34-36
Wait on Jehovah and keep His way; and He shall exalt you to inherit the earth; you shall see when the wicked are cut off. I have seen the wicked ruthless, even spreading himself out like a luxuriant, native tree; yet he passed away, and, lo, he was not; and I looked for him, but he could not be found.

Proverbs 2: 20-22
Then you may walk in the ways of the good and keep the ways of the righteous. For the upright shall live in the land, and the perfect shall remain in it. But the wicked shall be cut off from the earth, and the transgressors shall be rooted out of it.

Matthew 5:3-13
Blessed are the poor in spirit! For theirs is the kingdom of the Heavens.
4 Blessed are the ones mourning! For they shall be comforted.
5 Blessed are the meek! For they shall inherit the earth. Psa. 37:11
6 Blessed are they who hunger and thirst after righteousness! For they shall be filled.
7 Blessed are the merciful! For they shall obtain mercy.
8 Blessed are the pure in heart! For they shall see God.
9 Blessed are the peacemakers! For they shall be called sons of God.
10 Blessed are they who have been persecuted for righteousness' sake! For theirs is the kingdom of Heaven.
11 Blessed are you when they shall reproach you, and persecute you, and shall say every evil word against you, lying, on account of Me.
12 Rejoice and leap for joy, for your reward is great in Heaven; for in this way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.
13 ¶ You are the salt of the earth, but if the salt becomes tasteless, with what shall it be salted?
