- “Yet even now,” says Yahweh, “turn to me with all your heart,
and with fasting, and with weeping, and with mourning.” - Deep calls to deep at the noise of your waterfalls.
All your waves and your billows have swept over me. - He has shown you, O man, what is good.
What does Yahweh require of you, but to act justly,
to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God? - Don’t let your heart be troubled. Believe in God. Believe also in me.
- In you, Yahweh, I take refuge.
Let me never be disappointed.
Deliver me in your righteousness. - For you are my rock and my fortress,
therefore for your name’s sake lead me and guide me. - For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
- Exhort servants to be in subjection to their own masters and to be well-pleasing in all things, not contradicting, not stealing, but showing all good fidelity, that they may adorn the doctrine of God, our Savior, in all things.
- Guide me in your truth, and teach me,
for you are the God of my salvation.
I wait for you all day long. - My times are in your hand.
Deliver me from the hand of my enemies, and from those who persecute me. - Moreover when you fast, don’t be like the hypocrites, with sad faces. For they disfigure their faces that they may be seen by men to be fasting. Most certainly I tell you, they have received their reward.
- ‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.’ This is the first commandment.
- Yes, in the way of your judgments, Yahweh, we have waited for you.
Your name and your renown are the desire of our soul. - Have mercy on me, God, according to your loving kindness.
According to the multitude of your tender mercies, blot out my transgressions.
Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity.
Cleanse me from my sin. - He answered, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself.”
- When I said, “My foot is slipping!”
Your loving kindness, Yahweh, held me up. - I will never forget your precepts,
for with them, you have revived me. - Trust in Yahweh with all your heart,
and don’t lean on your own understanding.
In all your ways acknowledge him,
and he will make your paths straight. - Jesus said to him, ‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’
- Let no man despise your youth; but be an example to those who believe, in word, in your way of life, in love, in spirit, in faith, and in purity.
- I have chosen the way of truth.
I have set your ordinances before me. - I have blotted out, as a thick cloud, your transgressions,
and, as a cloud, your sins.
Return to me, for I have redeemed you. - Yet I am Yahweh your God from the land of Egypt;
and you shall acknowledge no god but me,
and besides me there is no savior. - With my whole heart I have sought you.
Don’t let me wander from your commandments. - Remove far from me falsehood and lies.
Give me neither poverty nor riches.
Feed me with the food that is needful for me.
