- Therefore you shall keep my commandments, and do them. I am Yahweh.
- You fathers, don’t provoke your children to wrath, but nurture them in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.
- Praise Yahweh, my soul!
All that is within me, praise his holy name! - But “he who boasts, let him boast in the Lord.” For it isn’t he who commends himself who is approved, but whom the Lord commends.
- I sought Yahweh, and he answered me,
and delivered me from all my fears. - Yahweh himself is who goes before you. He will be with you. He will not fail you nor forsake you. Don’t be afraid. Don’t be discouraged.
- But don’t forget this one thing, beloved, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
- Commit your deeds to Yahweh,
and your plans shall succeed. - Yahweh will also be a high tower for the oppressed;
a high tower in times of trouble. - The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen.
- Let the favor of the Lord our God be on us.
Establish the work of our hands for us.
Yes, establish the work of our hands. - A man’s steps are established by Yahweh.
He delights in his way. - “Yahweh is my portion,” says my soul.
“Therefore I will hope in him.” - “For I have no pleasure in the death of him who dies,” says the Lord Yahweh. “Therefore turn yourselves, and live!”
- Be strong, and let your heart take courage,
all you who hope in Yahweh. - Every way of a man is right in his own eyes,
but Yahweh weighs the hearts. - Wives, be in subjection to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord. Husbands, love your wives, and don’t be bitter against them.
- Whatever you do, in word or in deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.
- Yahweh, the Lord, is my strength.
He makes my feet like deer’s feet,
and enables me to go in high places. - For Yahweh is our judge.
Yahweh is our lawgiver.
Yahweh is our king.
He will save us. - For Yahweh gives wisdom.
Out of his mouth comes knowledge and understanding. - Blessed are those whose ways are blameless,
who walk according to Yahweh’s law. - Also delight yourself in Yahweh,
and he will give you the desires of your heart. - Yahweh’s blessing brings wealth,
and he adds no trouble to it. - Who is he who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?
If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him? Trust in Yahweh with all your heart,
and don’t lean on your own understanding.
In all your ways acknowledge him,
and he will make your paths straight.Next verse!With image
