Now David, having done God's work for his generation, went to sleep, and was put with his fathers, and his body came to destruction:

Hebrews 7:3
Being without father or mother, or family, having no birth or end to his life, being made like the Son of God, is a priest for ever.

Hebrews 7:8
Now at the present time, men over whom death has power take the tenth; but then it was taken by one of whom it is witnessed that he is living.

Hebrews 7:23
And it is true that there have been a great number of those priests, because death does not let them go on for ever;

Hebrews 7:25
So that he is fully able to be the saviour of all who come to God through him, because he is ever living to make prayer to God for them.

My cry has gone up to you; take me out of trouble, and I will be guided by your unchanging word.

1 John 3:20
When our heart says that we have done wrong; because God is greater than our heart, and has knowledge of all things.
