The paragraph below contains sixteen books of the Bible. There is a clue for each.
I have found a few already and have changed them to capitals in the text, but can't find the rest.

1. Words of wisdom
2. A royal pair KINGS
3. 1,2,3,4,5... NUMBERS
4. Deeds that you do ACTS
5. Number one of 66
6. To Peep - LUKE
7. King beaten at a river crossing
8. A record of events
9. Founder of Childline ESTHER
10. The pass sentences JUDGES
11. A King's lyric
12. They once ruled the world
13. Male tea maker HEBREWS
14. Student look for this on an assignment - MARK
15. Last of the old and first of the new (2books)
16.Paul is paid at his expense. PETER

I once made a reMARK about the hidden books of the Bible (merely by a fLUKE); it kept people looKING So hard for the fACTS and for others it was a revelation; some were in a jam, especially since the names of the books were not capitalised. But now the truth finally struck home to the NUMBERS of readers. To others it was a real job. We want it to be a most fascinating few moments for you. yES, THERe will be some really difficult ones to spot. Others may require JUDGES to help them. I will quickly admit it usually takes a minister to find one of them. There will be loud lamentations when it is found. A little lady says sHE BREWS a cup of tea so she can concentrate better. See how well you can comPETE. Relax now, for there really are sixteen names of the Bible hidden in this paragraph. One preacher found fifteen books in twenty minutes - but it took him three weeks to find the sixteenth one.

As you can see the words can be made from adjoining words.

Good luck

JNO - is Peter not the answer to 16?
JOB line 4
sorry, I meant other ABers and you have come up with 15 of the 16 books; Amos was the last. I don't know how they fit in with the clues. I suppose Judges once ruled the world but I don't know the rest.
oh no, hang on, you've got Judges already.

Revelations might be words of wisdom?
so this is how it reads:
