And God said, Let
waters bring forth abundantly moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above earth in open firmament of heaven. And to every beast of earth, and to every fowl of air, and to every thing that creepeth upon earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so. And Lord God formed man of dust of ground, and breathed into his nostrils breath of life; and man became a living soul. And they went in unto Noah into ark, two and two of all flesh, wherein is breath of life.
Only take heed to thyself, and keep thy soul diligently, lest thou forget things which thine eyes have seen, and lest they depart from thy heart all days of thy life: but teach them thy sons, and thy sons' sons; that thou mightest fear Lord thy God, to keep all his statutes and his commandments, which I command thee, thou, and thy son, and thy son's son, all days of thy life; and that thy days may be prolonged. That thou mayest love Lord thy God, and that thou mayest obey his voice, and that thou mayest cleave unto him: for he is thy life, and length of thy days: that thou mayest dwell in land which Lord sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them.
The Spirit of God hath made me, and breath of Almighty hath given me life. Thou wilt shew me path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all days of my life: and I will dwell in house of Lord for ever.
One thing have I desired of Lord, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in house of Lord all days of my life, to behold beauty of Lord, and to enquire in his temple. For with thee is fountain of life: in thy light shall we see light.
Yet Lord will command his lovingkindness in daytime, and in night his song shall be with me, and my prayer unto God of my life. Because thy lovingkindness is better than life, my lips shall praise thee. Behold that which I have seen: it is good and comely for one to eat and to drink, and to enjoy good of all his labour that he taketh under sun all days of his life, which God giveth him: for it is his portion. For he shall not much remember days of his life; because God answereth him in joy of his heart.
My covenant was with him of life and peace; and I gave them to him for fear wherewith he feared me, and was afraid before my name. Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Because strait is gate, and narrow is way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
And every one that hath forsaken houses, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name's sake, shall receive an hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life. But he shall receive an hundredfold now in this time, houses, and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, with persecutions; and in world to come eternal life. For even Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.
If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple. Whosoever shall seek to save his life shall lose it; and whosoever shall lose his life shall preserve it.
In him was life; and life was light of men. For God so loved world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. He that believeth on Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not Son shall not see life; but wrath of God abideth on him.
But whosoever drinketh of water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life. And he that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit unto life eternal: that both he that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice together.
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life. For as Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to Son to have life in himself. Search scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.
Labour not for meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God Father sealed.
For bread of God is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto world. And Jesus said unto them, I am bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst. And this is will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at last day.
I am that bread of life. I am living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for life of world.
It is spirit that quickeneth; flesh profiteth nothing: words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life. The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. I am good shepherd: good shepherd giveth his life for sheep.
