Whoso offereth the sacrifice of thanksgiving glorifieth me;\par\tab And to him that ordereth his way {\i aright}\par\tab Will I show the salvation of God.\par
I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, {\i which is} your spiritual service.
Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and will not be afraid; for Jehovah, {\i even} Jehovah, is my strength and song; and he is become my salvation.
Only let your manner of life be worthy of the gospel of Christ: that, whether I come and see you or be absent, I may hear of your state, that ye stand fast in one spirit, with one soul striving for the faith of the gospel;
But ye are an elect race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for {\i God's} own possession, that ye may show forth the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:
and that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercy; as it is written,\par\tab {\b Therefore will I give praise unto thee among the Gentiles,\par\tab And sing unto thy name.}
And now shall my head be lifted up above mine enemies round about me;\par\tab And I will offer in his tabernacle sacrifices of joy;\par\tab I will sing, yea, I will sing praises unto Jehovah.\par
yea, he saith, It is too light a thing that thou shouldest be my servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob, and to restore the preserved of Israel: I will also give thee for a light to the Gentiles, that thou mayest be my salvation unto the end of the earth.
