To *Him* Be Glory

But Thou, O Lord, art a Shield for me; my Glory, and the lifter up of mine head. Give unto the Lord the glory due unto His name; worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness. In God is my salvation and my glory: the rock of my strength, and my refuge, is in God. The righteous shall be glad in the Lord, and shall trust in Him; and all the upright in heart shall glory. Declare His glory among the heathen, His wonders among all people. The glory of the Lord shall endure for ever: the Lord shall rejoice in His works.

Glory ye in His holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek the Lord.  Where will ye leave your glory?  But my people have changed their glory for that which doth not profit. Not unto us, O Lord, not unto us, but unto Thy name give glory, for Thy mercy, and for Thy truth's sake.

Thus saith the Lord, Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom, neither let the mighty man glory in his might, let not the rich man glory in his riches:  But let him that glorieth glory in this, that he understandeth and knoweth me, that I am the Lord which exercise lovingkindness, judgment, and righteousness, in the earth: for in these things I delight, saith the Lord. For not he that commendeth himself is approved, but whom the Lord commendeth. 

And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are: That no flesh should glory in His presence. But of Him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption:  That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord. That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord. Therefore let no man glory in men.  

Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men. Blessed be the King that cometh in the name of the Lord: peace in heaven, and glory in the highest.

Therefore when thou doest thine alms, do not sound a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.

And immediately the angel of the Lord smote Herod, because he gave not God the glory: and he was eaten of worms, and gave up the ghost.

Your glorying is not good. Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump? For who maketh thee to differ from another? and what hast thou that thou didst not receive? now if thou didst receive it, why dost thou glory, as if thou hadst not received it?  Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God

Abraham staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God. For all things are for your sakes, that the abundant grace might through the thanksgiving of many redound to the glory of God. For not he that commendeth himself is approved, but whom the Lord commendeth. For of Him, and through Him, and to Him, are all things: to whom be glory for ever. For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. To God only wise, be glory through Jesus Christ for ever.

Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another. But God forbid that I should glory, save in the Cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world.

Grace be to you and peace from God the Father, and from our Lord Jesus Christ, Who gave Himself for our sins, that He might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father: To whom be glory for ever and ever.  

To the praise of the glory of His grace, wherein He hath made us accepted in the beloved. That we should be to the praise of His glory, who first trusted in Christ. And the Lord shall deliver me from every evil work, and will preserve me unto His heavenly kingdom: to whom be glory for ever and ever. Now unto Him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us, Unto Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are by Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God. And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. Now unto God and our Father be glory for ever and ever.

Whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things. 

And the Lord shall deliver me from every evil work, and will preserve me unto His heavenly kingdom: to whom be glory for ever and ever.  Make you perfect in every good work to do His will, working in you that which is wellpleasing in His sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory for ever and ever.

Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see Him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory.  For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away: But the word of the Lord endureth for ever. And this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto you.  

And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto Him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in His own Blood, And hath made us kings and priests unto God and His Father; to Him be glory and dominion for ever and ever.  

And the four beasts had each of them six wings about him; and they were full of eyes within: and they rest not day and night, saying, Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, which was, and is, and is to come. And when those beasts give glory and honour and thanks to Him that sat on the throne, who liveth for ever and ever, The four and twenty elders fall down before Him that sat on the throne, and worship Him that liveth for ever and ever, and cast their crowns before the throne, saying, Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for Thou hast created all things, and for Thy pleasure they are and were created.

Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing. And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying, Blessing, and honour, and glory, and power, be unto Him that sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb for ever and ever. Saying, Amen: Blessing, and glory, and wisdom, and thanksgiving, and honour, and power, and might, be unto our God for ever and ever. And the same hour was there a great earthquake, and the tenth part of the city fell, and in the earthquake were slain of men seven thousand: and the remnant were affrighted, and gave glory to the God of heaven. Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to Him; for the hour of His judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters. And men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of God, which hath power over these plagues: and they repented not to give Him glory.  

But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto His eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you.  To Him be glory and dominion for ever and ever.  

According as His divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him that hath called us to glory and virtue:  But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To Him be glory both now and for ever. 

Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, 
the only wise God, 
be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen.

To the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever.
