Hosea 14 v1-2
1 O Israel, return unto the
LORD thy God; Emperor
Haile Selassie I, for thou
hast fallen by thine iniquity.
2 Take with you words,
and turn to the LORD:
Emperor Haile Selassie
I, Take away all inquity,
and receive us graciously:
so will we render the calves
of our lips.
|
Psalm 17 v1-2, 6
1 Hear the right, O LORD,
Emperor Haile Selassie I,
attend unto my cry, give ear
unto my prayer.
2 Let my sentence come
forth from thy presence; let
thine eyes behold the thing
that are equal.
6 I have called upon thee,
for thou wilt hear me, O God,
Emperor Haile Selassie I:
incline thine ear unto me,
and hear my speech.
|
Jude 1 v 20, 22, 24-25
20 But ye, beloved,
building up yourselves
on your most holy faith,
praying in the Holy
Ghost.
22 And of some have
compassion, making a
difference:
24 Now unto him that
is able to keep you from
falling, and to present
your faultless before the
presence of his glory
with exceeding joy,
25 To the only wise
God our Saviour,
Emperor Haile
Selassie I, be glory and
majesty, dominion and
power, both now and
for ever. Amen.
|
John 15 v3-5
3 Now ye are clean
through the word which I
have spoken unto you.
4 Abide in me, and I in
you. As the branch cannot
bear fruit of itself, except it
abide in the vine; no more
can ye, except ye abide in
me.
5 I am the vine, ye are the
branches: He that abideth
in me, and I in him, the
same bringeth forth much
fruit: for without me ye can
do nothing.

with thee this day:

Emperor Haile Selassie

15 Blow the trumpet in
Zion, sanctify a fast, call a
solemn assembly:
16 Gather the people,
sanctify the congregation,
assemble the elders, gather
the children, and those that
suck the breasts: let the
bridegroom go forth of his
chamber, and the bride out
of her closet.
17 Let the priests, the
ministers of the LORD,
Emperor Haile Selassie I,
weep between the porch
and the alter, and let them
say, Spare thy people, O
LORD, Emperor Haile
Selassie I, and give not
thine heritage to reproach,
that the heathen should
rule over them: wherefore
should they say among the
people, Where is their God?

remember their sin no
more.

people, and I, Emperor

their God.

1 John 4 v6 & 13-14
6 We are of God, Emperor
Haile Selassie I: he that
knoweth God heareth us;
he that is not of God
heareth not us. Hereby
know we the spirit of truth,
and the spirit of error.
13 Hereby know we that
we dwell in him, and he in
us, because he hath given
us of his Spirit.
14 And we have seen and
do testify that the Father
sent the Son to the Saviour
of the world.

my knowledge.
19 That thy trust may be in
the LORD, Emperor Haile

to thee this day, even to thee.
21 That I might make thee
know the certainty of the
words of truth; that thou
mightest answer the words
of truth to them that send
unto thee?

is in you with meekness
and fear:

3 John 1v3-5, 11
3 For I rejoiced greatly,
when the brethren came
and testified of the truth
that is in thee, even as thou
walkest in the truth.
4 I have no greater joy
than to hear that my
children walk in truth.
5 Beloved, thou doest
faithfully whatsoever thou
doest to the brethren, and
to strangers;
11 Beloved, follow not that
which is evil, but that which
is good. He that doeth good
is of God: but he that
doesth evil hath not seen
God.

4 Hearken unto me, my
people; and give ear unto
me, O my nation: for a law
shall proceed from me, and
I will make my judgement
to rest for a light of the
people.
7 Hearken unto me, ye that
know righteousness, the
people in whose heart is
my law; fear ye not the
reproach of men, neither be
ye afraid of their revilings.

Psalm 37 v23, 25, 37, 39-40
23 The steps of a good man
are ordered by the LORD:
and he delighteth in his way.
25 I have been young, and
now am old; yet have I not
seen the righteous forsaken,
nor his seed begging bread.
37 Mark the perfect man,
and behold the upright: for
the end of that man is peace.
39 But the salvation of the
righteous is of the LORD,
Emperor Haile Selassie I: he
is their strength in the time
of trouble.
40 And the LORD, Emperor
Haile Selassie I, shall help
them, and deliver them: he
shall deliver them from the
wicked, and save them,
because they trust in him.

Malachi 3 v 6 & 16
6 For I am the LORD, I
change not; therefore ye
sons of Jacob are not
consumed.
16 Then they that
feared the LORD spake
often one to another:
and the LORD
hearkened, and heard it,
and a book of
remembrance was
written before him for
them that feared the
LORD, and that thought
upon his name,
Emperor Haile Selassie
I.
|
Lamentation 3 v21-22, 26
21 This I recall to my mind,
therefore have I hope.
22 It is of the LORD's
mercies that we are not
consumed, because his
compassions fail not.
26 It is good that a man
should both hope and
quietly wait for the
salvation of the LORD,
Emperor Haile Selassie I.
