  sons of Israel, and I then will bless them.

• 1 Corinthians 124-11
• Now there are varieties of gifts, but the
  same Spirit. And there are varieties of
  ministries, and the same Lord. There are
  varieties of effects, but the same God who works
  all things in all persons. But to each one is
  given the manifestation of the Spirit for the
  common good.

10

• For to one is given the word of wisdom
  through the Spirit, and to another the word of
  knowledge according to the same Spirit to
  another faith by the same Spirit, and to another
  gifts of healing by the one Spirit, and to
  another the effecting of miracles, and to another
  prophecy, and to another the distinguishing of
  spirits, to another various kinds of tongues, and
  to another the interpretation of tongues. But one
  and the same Spirit works all these things,
  distributing to each one individually just as He
  wills.

• Luke 1941-44
• When He approached Jerusalem, He saw the city and
  wept over it, saying, If you had known in this
  day, even you, the things which make for peace!
  But now they have been hidden from your eyes. For
  the days will come upon you when your enemies
  will throw up a barricade against you, and
  surround you and hem you in on every side, and
  they will level you to the ground and your
  children within you, and they will not leave in
  you one stone upon another, because you did not
  recognize the time of your visitation.
