- Before a word is on my tongue
you, Lord, know it completely. - For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
- Make every effort to live in peace with everyone and to be holy; without holiness no one will see the Lord.
- So we say with confidence,
“The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid.
What can mere mortals do to me?” - May your unfailing love be with us, Lord,
even as we put our hope in you. - The Lord is with me; I will not be afraid.
What can mere mortals do to me? - The Lord is righteous in all his ways
and faithful in all he does. - For those who find me find life
and receive favor from the Lord. - From the Lord comes deliverance.
May your blessing be on your people. - For who is God besides the Lord?
And who is the Rock except our God? - Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.
- Be strong and take heart,
all you who hope in the Lord. - You, Lord, keep my lamp burning;
my God turns my darkness into light. - And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into his image with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.
- Rather, clothe yourselves with the Lord Jesus Christ, and do not think about how to gratify the desires of the flesh.
- When I said, “My foot is slipping,”
your unfailing love, Lord, supported me. - Seek the Lord while he may be found;
call on him while he is near. - The Lord will keep you from all harm—
he will watch over your life;
the Lord will watch over your coming and going
both now and forevermore. - Praise the Lord, my soul;
all my inmost being, praise his holy name. - In their hearts humans plan their course,
but the Lord establishes their steps. - The Lord makes firm the steps
of the one who delights in him. - Let us examine our ways and test them,
and let us return to the Lord. - But the Lord said to Samuel, “Do not consider his appearance or his height, for I have rejected him. The Lord does not look at the things people look at. People look at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.”
- I sought the Lord, and he answered me;
he delivered me from all my fears. - “Who can hide in secret places so that I cannot see them?” declares the Lord.
“Do not I fill heaven and earth?” declares the Lord.
“Don’t be alarmed,” he said. “You are looking for Jesus the Nazarene, who was crucified. He has risen! He is not here. See the place where they laid him.”
