- Your decrees are my heritage forever;
they are the joy of my heart. - O God, you are my God, I seek you,
my soul thirsts for you;
my flesh faints for you,
as in a dry and weary land where there is no water. - My times are in your hand;
deliver me from the hand of my enemies and persecutors. - But as for me, I will look to the Lord,
I will wait for the God of my salvation;
my God will hear me. - Hear my prayer, O Lord;
give ear to my supplications in your faithfulness;
answer me in your righteousness. - God, the Lord, is my strength;
he makes my feet like the feet of a deer,
and makes me tread upon the heights. - My child, be attentive to my words;
incline your ear to my sayings.
Do not let them escape from your sight;
keep them within your heart. - My child, do not forget my teaching,
but let your heart keep my commandments;
for length of days and years of life
and abundant welfare they will give you. - My lips will shout for joy
when I sing praises to you;
my soul also, which you have rescued. - You who live in the shelter of the Most High,
who abide in the shadow of the Almighty,
will say to the Lord, “My refuge and my fortress;
my God, in whom I trust.” - Jesus said to her, “Do not hold on to me, because I have not yet ascended to the Father. But go to my brothers and say to them, ‘I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.’ ”
- I say to the Lord, “You are my Lord;
I have no good apart from you.” - O Lord, in the morning you hear my voice;
in the morning I plead my case to you, and watch. - Now therefore, if you obey my voice and keep my covenant, you shall be my treasured possession out of all the peoples. Indeed, the whole earth is mine.
- Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me; for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
- Then Jesus answered them, “My teaching is not mine but his who sent me.”
- When I am afraid,
I put my trust in you. - For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
so are my ways higher than your ways
and my thoughts than your thoughts. - Out of the depths I cry to you, O Lord.
Lord, hear my voice!
Let your ears be attentive
to the voice of my supplications! - Have mercy on me, O God,
according to your steadfast love;
according to your abundant mercy
blot out my transgressions.
Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity,
and cleanse me from my sin. - I wait for the Lord, my soul waits,
and in his word I hope. - Bless the Lord, O my soul,
and all that is within me,
bless his holy name. - I the Lord am your God; follow my statutes, and be careful to observe my ordinances, and hallow my sabbaths that they may be a sign between me and you, so that you may know that I the Lord am your God.
- I will make your offspring as numerous as the stars of heaven, and will give to your offspring all these lands; and all the nations of the earth shall gain blessing for themselves through your offspring, because Abraham obeyed my voice and kept my charge, my commandments, my statutes, and my laws.
- May my teaching drop like the rain,
my speech condense like the dew;
like gentle rain on grass,
like showers on new growth.
