- All this also comes from the Lord Almighty,
whose plan is wonderful,
whose wisdom is magnificent. - Accept the one whose faith is weak, without quarreling over disputable matters.
- Like a city whose walls are broken through
is a person who lacks self-control. - Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord,
the people he chose for his inheritance. - Blessed are those whose ways are blameless,
who walk according to the law of the Lord. - The one whose walk is blameless,
who does what is righteous,
who speaks the truth from their heart;
whose tongue utters no slander,
who does no wrong to a neighbor,
and casts no slur on others. - You will keep in perfect peace
those whose minds are steadfast,
because they trust in you. - In God, whose word I praise—
in God I trust and am not afraid.
What can mere mortals do to me? - He holds success in store for the upright,
he is a shield to those whose walk is blameless. - But the eyes of the Lord are on those who fear him,
on those whose hope is in his unfailing love. - But you, Bethlehem Ephrathah,
though you are small among the clans of Judah,
out of you will come for me
one who will be ruler over Israel,
whose origins are from of old,
from ancient times. - For this is what the high and exalted One says—
he who lives forever, whose name is holy:
“I live in a high and holy place,
but also with the one who is contrite and lowly in spirit,
to revive the spirit of the lowly
and to revive the heart of the contrite.” - But if serving the Lord seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your ancestors served beyond the Euphrates, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you are living. But as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.
- But blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord,
whose confidence is in him.
They will be like a tree planted by the water
that sends out its roots by the stream.
It does not fear when heat comes;
its leaves are always green.
It has no worries in a year of drought
and never fails to bear fruit.
