- Whom have I in heaven but You?
And there is none upon earth that I desire besides You. - He must increase, but I must decrease.
- Heal me, O Lord, and I shall be healed;
Save me, and I shall be saved,
For You are my praise. - I have set the Lord always before me;
Because He is at my right hand I shall not be moved. - I have made a covenant with my eyes;
Why then should I look upon a young woman? - I will praise You, O Lord, with my whole heart;
I will tell of all Your marvelous works. - And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing.
- I will extol You, my God, O King;
And I will bless Your name forever and ever. - I have taught you in the way of wisdom;
I have led you in right paths. - For I have satiated the weary soul, and I have replenished every sorrowful soul.
- I will praise You, O Lord, among the peoples,
And I will sing praises to You among the nations. - Cause me to hear Your lovingkindness in the morning,
For in You do I trust;
Cause me to know the way in which I should walk,
For I lift up my soul to You. - Therefore I will look to the Lord;
I will wait for the God of my salvation;
My God will hear me. - Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.
- Then Jesus said to them, “I shall be with you a little while longer, and then I go to Him who sent Me.”
- Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in needs, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ’s sake. For when I am weak, then I am strong.
- I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go;
I will guide you with My eye. - Do not think that I came to bring peace on earth. I did not come to bring peace but a sword.
- But I discipline my body and bring it into subjection, lest, when I have preached to others, I myself should become disqualified.
- ‘Return, backsliding Israel,’ says the Lord;
‘I will not cause My anger to fall on you.
For I am merciful,’ says the Lord;
‘I will not remain angry forever.’ - Because Your lovingkindness is better than life,
My lips shall praise You.
Thus I will bless You while I live;
I will lift up my hands in Your name. - Preserve me, O God, for in You I put my trust.
- And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.
- Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father.
- Thus I will magnify Myself and sanctify Myself, and I will be known in the eyes of many nations. Then they shall know that I am the Lord.
I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me.He is the Rock, His work is perfect;
For all His ways are justice,
A God of truth and without injustice;
Righteous and upright is He.
