- If your brother sins against you, go, show him his fault between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have gained back your brother.
- Be exalted, God, above the heavens!
Let your glory be over all the earth. - A second likewise is this, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’
- Establish my footsteps in your word.
Don’t let any iniquity have dominion over me. - I will exalt you, my God, the King.
I will praise your name forever and ever. - Be exalted, God, above the heavens!
Let your glory be above all the earth! - Open your mouth, judge righteously,
and serve justice to the poor and needy. - You shall keep his statutes and his commandments which I command you today, that it may go well with you and with your children after you, and that you may prolong your days in the land which Yahweh your God gives you for all time.
- He will not allow your foot to be moved.
He who keeps you will not slumber. - You, Yahweh, remain forever.
Your throne is from generation to generation. - Where could I go from your Spirit?
Or where could I flee from your presence?
If I ascend up into heaven, you are there.
If I make my bed in Sheol, behold, you are there! - Arise, shine; for your light has come,
and Yahweh’s glory has risen on you! - Listen, my son, and receive my sayings.
The years of your life will be many. - Turn us again, Yahweh God of Armies.
Cause your face to shine, and we will be saved. - The entrance of your words gives light.
It gives understanding to the simple. - I will be glad and rejoice in you.
I will sing praise to your name, O Most High. - With my whole heart I have sought you.
Don’t let me wander from your commandments. - I will multiply your offspring as the stars of the sky, and will give all these lands to your offspring. In your offspring all the nations of the earth will be blessed, because Abraham obeyed my voice, and kept my requirements, my commandments, my statutes, and my laws.
- Honor Yahweh with your substance,
with the first fruits of all your increase. - They said, “Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved, you and your household.”
- I am coming quickly! Hold firmly that which you have, so that no one takes your crown.
- For you are my rock and my fortress,
therefore for your name’s sake lead me and guide me. - Open your mouth for the mute,
in the cause of all who are left desolate. - I will give thanks to Yahweh with my whole heart.
I will tell of all your marvelous works. - In you, Yahweh, I take refuge.
Let me never be disappointed.
Deliver me in your righteousness.
Bear one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ. We are bound to always give thanks to God for you, brothers, even as it is appropriate, because your faith grows exceedingly, and the love of each and every one of you toward one another abounds.Next verse!With image
