- You shall keep my Sabbaths and reverence my sanctuary: I am the Lord.
- You shall not add to the word that I command you, nor take from it, that you may keep the commandments of the Lord your God that I command you.
- Behold, the eye of the Lord is on those who fear him,
on those who hope in his steadfast love. - Heal me, O Lord, and I shall be healed;
save me, and I shall be saved,
for you are my praise. - Know therefore that the Lord your God is God, the faithful God who keeps covenant and steadfast love with those who love him and keep his commandments, to a thousand generations.
- Out of my distress I called on the Lord;
the Lord answered me and set me free. - O Lord, in the morning you hear my voice;
in the morning I prepare a sacrifice for you and watch. - The Lord is with you while you are with him. If you seek him, he will be found by you, but if you forsake him, he will forsake you.
- Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward. You are serving the Lord Christ.
- If you obey the commandments of the Lord your God that I command you today, by loving the Lord your God, by walking in his ways, and by keeping his commandments and his statutes and his rules, then you shall live and multiply, and the Lord your God will bless you in the land that you are entering to take possession of it.
- I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you.
- Let love be genuine. Abhor what is evil; hold fast to what is good.
- Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will exalt you.
- If I give away all I have, and if I deliver up my body to be burned, but have not love, I gain nothing.
- But you, beloved, building yourselves up in your most holy faith and praying in the Holy Spirit, keep yourselves in the love of God, waiting for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ that leads to eternal life.
- I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go;
I will counsel you with my eye upon you. - In peace I will both lie down and sleep;
for you alone, O Lord, make me dwell in safety. - So flee youthful passions and pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace, along with those who call on the Lord from a pure heart.
- However, let each one of you love his wife as himself, and let the wife see that she respects her husband.
- Remember your mercy, O Lord, and your steadfast love,
for they have been from of old.
Remember not the sins of my youth or my transgressions;
according to your steadfast love remember me,
for the sake of your goodness, O Lord! - O Lord, you are my God;
I will exalt you; I will praise your name,
for you have done wonderful things,
plans formed of old, faithful and sure. - I wait for the Lord, my soul waits,
and in his word I hope. - “For the mountains may depart
and the hills be removed,
but my steadfast love shall not depart from you,
and my covenant of peace shall not be removed,”
says the Lord, who has compassion on you. - Great peace have those who love your law;
nothing can make them stumble. - For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.
And when you pray, do not heap up empty phrases as the Gentiles do, for they think that they will be heard for their many words.
