- Trust in the Lord with all your heart
and lean not on your own understanding;
in all your ways submit to him,
and he will make your paths straight. - One thing I ask from the Lord,
this only do I seek:
that I may dwell in the house of the Lord
all the days of my life,
to gaze on the beauty of the Lord
and to seek him in his temple. - However, as it is written:
“What no eye has seen,
what no ear has heard,
and what no human mind has conceived”—

Men committed shameful acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error. Furthermore, just as they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, so God gave them over to a depraved mind, so that they do what ought not to be done.

- If this is so, then the Lord knows how to rescue the godly from trials and to hold the unrighteous for punishment on the day of judgment.
- But blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord,
whose confidence is in him.

that sends out its roots by the stream.

its leaves are always green.
It has no worries in a year of drought
and never fails to bear fruit.
