For I know him, that he will command his children and his house-
hold after him, and they shall keep the way of the Lord, to do
justice and judgment; that the Lord may bring upon Abra-
ham that which he hath spoken of him.-Gen. xviii. 19.

1812.

And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in
thine heart. Ánd thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy
children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house,
and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down,
and when thou risest up.-Deut. vi. 6, 7.
