- Even though the fig trees have no blossoms,
and there are no grapes on the vines;
even though the olive crop fails,
and the fields lie empty and barren;

and the cattle barns are empty,
yet I will rejoice in the Lord!
I will be joyful in the God of my salvation! - For “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”
- My victory and honor come from God alone.
He is my refuge, a rock where no enemy can reach me. - Others were given in exchange for you.

Then we will be with the Lord forever.

you are my strength.
The Lord is my rock, my fortress, and my savior;
my God is my rock, in whom I find protection.

and my place of safety. - O Lord, if you heal me, I will be truly healed;
if you save me, I will be truly saved.

- Let me now remind you, dear brothers and sisters, of the Good News I preached to you before. You welcomed it then, and you still stand firm in it.
