10) For unto us a Child is born, Unto us a Son is given; and the
      government will be upon His shoulder.  And His name will be 
      called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father,
      Prince of Peace.  Of the increase of His government and peace
      There will be no end, Upon the throne of David and over His
      kingdom, To order it and establish it with judgement and justice,
      From that time foreword, even forever, The zeal of the LORD of
      hosts will perform this.  Isaiah 9:6-7

       marvelous works.  I will be glad and rejoice in You; I will sing praise
       to Your name. Psalm 9:1-2

12)  OH, sing to the LORD a new song! For He has done marvelous things;
       His right hand and His holy arm have gained Him the victory.  The LORD
       has made known His salvation; His righteousness He had revealed in the
      sight of the nations.  He has remembered His mercy and His faithfulness
      to the house of Israel;  All the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of
     our LORD.  Psalm 98: 1-3

13)  The first time that the LORD asked Cain after he slain his younger brother,
        Abel, because of his jealousy due to the fact that the LORD accepted Abel's
        offering but rejected his cause his heart was not right with the LORD was in:
        Then the LORD said to Cain, "Where is Able your brother? He said," I do not
        know.  Am I my brother's keeper?"  And He said, "What have you done? The
        voice of your brother's blood cries out to me from the ground.  Genesis 4:9-10.

 14)  Then God said," Let us make man in Our own image, according to Our likeness,
         let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and
         over the cattle, over all" the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps
        upon the earth." So God created man in His own image; in the name of God He
        created him; male and female He created them."

        In the very beginning God created only two genders and not many of them: In
        His own image and not the image of monkeys nor apes.  They're of one flesh
       but mankind is another. God also created the earth!
