- The Lord is nigh unto all them that call upon him,
to all that call upon him in truth. - The Lord openeth the eyes of the blind:
the Lord raiseth them that are bowed down:
the Lord loveth the righteous. - The Lord preserveth the strangers;
he relieveth the fatherless and widow:
but the way of the wicked he turneth upside down. - He healeth the broken in heart,
and bindeth up their wounds. - For the Lord taketh pleasure in his people:
he will beautify the meek with salvation. - Let every thing that hath breath praise the Lord.
Praise ye the Lord. - Blessed is the man
that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly,
nor standeth in the way of sinners,
nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. - But thou, O Lord, art a shield for me;
my glory, and the lifter up of mine head. - Salvation belongeth unto the Lord:
thy blessing is upon thy people. Selah. - I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep:
for thou, Lord, only makest me dwell in safety. - My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O Lord;
in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up. - For thou, Lord, wilt bless the righteous;
with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield. - What is man, that thou art mindful of him?
and the son of man, that thou visitest him?
Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not.
