and the hills may totter,
my steadfast love will not depart from you,
and my covenant of peace will never be shaken,

- The Lord will fulfill his plan for me.
Your kindness, O Lord, endures forever;
do not forsake the work of your hands. - He is the reflection of God’s glory
and the perfect expression of his very being,
sustaining all things by his powerful word.

he took his seat at the right hand of the Majesty on high. - My son, do not forget my teaching,
but cherish my commandments in your heart,
for they will bring you length of days,
more years of life, and an abundance of prosperity. - Stand firm, then, with the belt of truth fastened around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness clothing you, and with your feet shod in zeal to proclaim the gospel of peace. In all circumstances, hold in your hand the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the flaming arrows of the evil one.

and by his bruises we have been healed. - The Lord will battle for you. Be calm!

- Hear my prayer, O Lord;
do not be deaf to my cry
or ignore my weeping.
For I am a wayfarer before you,
a nomad like all my ancestors. - O Lord, you are my God.
I will exalt you and praise your name,
for you have accomplished wonderful things,
formulated in ages past, faithful and sure. - Even a fool who keeps silent is considered wise;
if he closes his lips, he is regarded as intelligent. - But for that very reason I was treated mercifully, so that in me Jesus Christ might exhibit his inexhaustible patience, making me an example for those who would come to believe in him for eternal life.
- All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful for teaching, for refutation, for correction, and for training in uprightness, so that the man of God may be proficient and equipped for good work of every kind.

- Blessed are the peacemakers,
for they will be called children of God. - Exhort slaves to be submissive to their masters and to give them satisfaction in every respect. They are not to talk back to them, nor are they to steal from them.

- However, the wisdom that comes from above is first of all pure, then peaceable, gentle, and considerate, full of mercy and good fruits, without any trace of partiality or hypocrisy.

Even though the fig tree does not blossomand there is no fruit on the vines,
even though the olive crop will fail
and the orchards will yield no food,

and there is no herd in the stalls,
