- Be exalted, O God, above the highest heavens.
May your glory shine over all the earth. - Fear of the Lord is the foundation of true wisdom.
All who obey his commandments will grow in wisdom.
Praise him forever! - Praise the Lord!
How joyful are those who fear the Lord
and delight in obeying his commands. - Good comes to those who lend money generously
and conduct their business fairly. - Such people will not be overcome by evil.
Those who are righteous will be long remembered. - Not to us, O Lord, not to us,
but to your name goes all the glory
for your unfailing love and faithfulness. - Our God is in the heavens,
and he does as he wishes. - I love the Lord because he hears my voice
and my prayer for mercy.
Because he bends down to listen,
I will pray as long as I have breath! - In my distress I prayed to the Lord,
and the Lord answered me and set me free. - The Lord is for me, so I will have no fear.
What can mere people do to me? - It is better to take refuge in the Lord
than to trust in people. - This is the day the Lord has made.
We will rejoice and be glad in it. - Please, Lord, please save us.
Please, Lord, please give us success.
Bless the one who comes in the name of the Lord.
We bless you from the house of the Lord.
So letting your sinful nature control your mind leads to death. But letting the Spirit control your mind leads to life and peace. For God is the one who provides seed for the farmer and then bread to eat. In the same way, he will provide and increase your resources and then produce a great harvest of generosity in you.Next verse!With image
