- The Lord is my light and my salvation;
Whom shall I fear?
The Lord is the strength of my life;
Of whom shall I be afraid? - Though an army may encamp against me,
My heart shall not fear;
Though war may rise against me,
In this I will be confident. - One thing I have desired of the Lord,
That will I seek:
That I may dwell in the house of the Lord
All the days of my life,
To behold the beauty of the Lord,
And to inquire in His temple. - I would have lost heart, unless I had believed
That I would see the goodness of the Lord
In the land of the living. - Wait on the Lord;
Be of good courage,
And He shall strengthen your heart;
Wait, I say, on the Lord! - The Lord is my strength and my shield;
My heart trusted in Him, and I am helped;
Therefore my heart greatly rejoices,
And with my song I will praise Him. - The Lord will give strength to His people;
The Lord will bless His people with peace. - For His anger is but for a moment,
His favor is for life;
Weeping may endure for a night,
But joy comes in the morning. - In You, O Lord, I put my trust;
Let me never be ashamed;
Deliver me in Your righteousness. - For You are my rock and my fortress;
Therefore, for Your name’s sake,
Lead me and guide me. - My times are in Your hand;
Deliver me from the hand of my enemies,
And from those who persecute me. - Make Your face shine upon Your servant;
Save me for Your mercies’ sake. - Oh, how great is Your goodness,
Which You have laid up for those who fear You,
Which You have prepared for those who trust in You
In the presence of the sons of men! - Be of good courage,
And He shall strengthen your heart,
All you who hope in the Lord. - Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven,
Whose sin is covered. - When I kept silent, my bones grew old
Through my groaning all the day long. - I acknowledged my sin to You,
And my iniquity I have not hidden.
I said, “I will confess my transgressions to the Lord,”
And You forgave the iniquity of my sin. Selah - You are my hiding place;
You shall preserve me from trouble;
You shall surround me with songs of deliverance. Selah - I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go;
I will guide you with My eye. - For the word of the Lord is right,
And all His work is done in truth. - He loves righteousness and justice;
The earth is full of the goodness of the Lord. - By the word of the Lord the heavens were made,
And all the host of them by the breath of His mouth. - Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord,
The people He has chosen as His own inheritance. - Behold, the eye of the Lord is on those who fear Him,
On those who hope in His mercy. - Let Your mercy, O Lord, be upon us,
Just as we hope in You.
I will bless the Lord at all times;
His praise shall continually be in my mouth.Therefore by the deeds of the law no flesh will be justified in His sight, for by the law is the knowledge of sin. But at midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the prisoners were listening to them.Next verse!With image
