- To our God and Father be glory for ever and ever. Amen.
- For the Lord takes delight in his people;
he crowns the humble with victory. - For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.
- Not to us, Lord, not to us
but to your name be the glory,
because of your love and faithfulness. - The Lord sends poverty and wealth;
he humbles and he exalts. - Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, praise and exalt and glorify the King of heaven, because everything he does is right and all his ways are just. And those who walk in pride he is able to humble.
- Woe to those who quarrel with their Maker,
those who are nothing but potsherds
among the potsherds on the ground.
Does the clay say to the potter,
‘What are you making?’
Does your work say,
‘The potter has no hands’? - Come, let us bow down in worship,
let us kneel before the Lord our Maker. - Now that I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also should wash one another’s feet.
- When you fast, do not look somber as the hypocrites do, for they disfigure their faces to show others they are fasting. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full.

- It is written: ‘As surely as I live,’ says the Lord,
‘every knee will bow before me;

- Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen.
- What is mankind that you are mindful of them,
human beings that you care for them? - Hear my prayer, Lord,
listen to my cry for help;
do not be deaf to my weeping.
I dwell with you as a foreigner,
a stranger, as all my ancestors were. - This, then, is how you should pray:
‘Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
your kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.’ - Rejoice greatly, Daughter Zion!
Shout, Daughter Jerusalem!
See, your king comes to you,
righteous and victorious,
lowly and riding on a donkey,
on a colt, the foal of a donkey. - Seek the Lord, all you humble of the land,
you who do what he commands.
Seek righteousness, seek humility;
perhaps you will be sheltered
on the day of the Lord’s anger. - Very truly I tell you, no servant is greater than his master, nor is a messenger greater than the one who sent him.
- Blessed are the poor in spirit,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. - But the tax collector stood at a distance. He would not even look up to heaven, but beat his breast and said, ‘God, have mercy on me, a sinner.’
Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love. They replied, “Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved—you and your household.”Next verse!With image
