The Lord is my strength and song, and is become my salvation.

--_Psalms 118:14_.

He giveth power to the faint: and to them that have no might he increaseth strength.--_Isaiah 40:29_.

Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or {508} nakedness, or sword?

Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.--_Romans 8:35,37_.

Fear not, little flock, for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom.--_Luke 12:32_.

I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith.--_II Timothy 4:7_.

PREFACE

This volume contains stories from the Old Testament, not included in the previous volume of this series, "Hero Tales from the Old Testament." It tells of brave women and strong men, of marvelous adventures and escapes, of gallant struggles for liberty, of good and bad kings, of national deliverance and captivity. Some of these stories are given in the form of great symbolic poems and stories like the "Pilgrim's Progress," conveying some great truth by means of poetic imagery, others are the literal recital of historic facts. All are full of the deepest interest and are of profound moral value.
