- Blessed be the Lord,
who daily bears us up;
God is our salvation. Selah - Why are you cast down, O my soul,
and why are you disquieted within me?

my help and my God. - But as for me, I will look to the Lord,

for your name's sake. - And he is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the sins of the whole world.
- Who, though he was in the form of God,
did not regard equality with God
as something to be exploited,

taking the form of a slave,
being born in human likeness.

he humbled himself
and became obedient to the point of death—
even death on a cross. - And it is no longer I who live, but it is Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.

a warrior who gives victory;
he will rejoice over you with gladness,
he will renew you in his love;
he will exult over you with loud singing. - You know that you were ransomed from the futile ways inherited from your ancestors, not with perishable things like silver or gold, but with the precious blood of Christ, like that of a lamb without defect or blemish.

I love you, O Lord, my strength.
The Lord is my rock, my fortress, and my deliverer,
my God, my rock in whom I take refuge,
my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.The Lord our God be with us, as he was with our ancestors; may he not leave us or abandon us. Be strong and bold; have no fear or dread of them, because it is the Lord your God who goes with you; he will not fail you or forsake you.Next verse!With image
