Behold, God is my helper; the Lord is the upholder of my life. | Behold, God is my helper. The Lord is the one who sustains my soul. |
So we can confidently say, “The Lord is my helper; I will not fear; what can man do to me?” | So that with good courage we say, “The Lord is my helper. I will not fear. What can man do to me?” |
|
Then the Lord God said, “It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a helper fit for him.” | Yahweh God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make him a helper comparable to him.” |
And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Helper, to be with you forever. | I will pray to the Father, and he will give you another Counselor, that he may be with you forever. |
But when the Helper comes, whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth, who proceeds from the Father, he will bear witness about me. | When the Counselor has come, whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth, who proceeds from the Father, he will testify about me. |
But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you. | But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things, and will remind you of all that I said to you. |
Nevertheless, I tell you the truth: it is to your advantage that I go away, for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you. But if I go, I will send him to you. | Nevertheless I tell you the truth: It is to your advantage that I go away; for if I don’t go away, the Counselor won’t come to you. But if I go, I will send him to you. |
Because I delivered the poor who cried for help, and the fatherless who had none to help him. The blessing of him who was about to perish came upon me, and I caused the widow's heart to sing for joy. | Because I delivered the poor who cried, and the fatherless also, who had no one to help him, the blessing of him who was ready to perish came on me, and I caused the widow’s heart to sing for joy. |
Seek good, and not evil, that you may live; and so the Lord, the God of hosts, will be with you, as you have said. | Seek good, and not evil, that you may live; and so Yahweh, the God of Armies, will be with you, as you say. |
