- For he guards the course of the just
and protects the way of his faithful ones. - Be still before the Lord
and wait patiently for him;
do not fret when people succeed in their ways,
when they carry out their wicked schemes. - Taking the five loaves and the two fish and looking up to heaven, he gave thanks and broke them.

- Do not withhold your mercy from me, Lord;
may your love and faithfulness always protect me. - Very truly I tell you, whoever accepts anyone I send accepts me; and whoever accepts me accepts the one who sent me.

- He is not here; he has risen! Remember how he told you, while he was still with you in Galilee: ‘The Son of Man must be delivered over to the hands of sinners, be crucified and on the third day be raised again.’

and sets its foundation on the earth;

and pours them out over the face of the land—
the Lord is his name. - If you love me, keep my commands.
- And a highway will be there;
it will be called the Way of Holiness;
it will be for those who walk on that Way.
The unclean will not journey on it;
wicked fools will not go about on it. - If your brother or sister sins, go and point out their fault, just between the two of you. If they listen to you, you have won them over.

- Whoever would foster love covers over an offense,
but whoever repeats the matter separates close friends. - The Lord is with me; I will not be afraid.
What can mere mortals do to me? - I fell to the ground and heard a voice say to me, ‘Saul! Saul! Why do you persecute me?’
- You are my hiding place;
you will protect me from trouble
and surround me with songs of deliverance. - In you, Lord, I have taken refuge;
let me never be put to shame;
deliver me in your righteousness. - By day the Lord directs his love,
at night his song is with me—
a prayer to the God of my life. - Guide me in your truth and teach me,
for you are God my Savior,
and my hope is in you all day long. - Heal me, Lord, and I will be healed;
save me and I will be saved,
for you are the one I praise. - Teach me to do your will,
for you are my God;
may your good Spirit
lead me on level ground.
