- How can young people keep their way pure?
By guarding it according to your word. - The young lions suffer want and hunger,
but those who seek the Lord lack no good thing. - I have made a covenant with my eyes;
how then could I look upon a virgin? - Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign. Look, the young woman is with child and shall bear a son, and shall name him Immanuel.
- Let no one despise your youth, but set the believers an example in speech and conduct, in love, in faith, in purity.
- May my teaching drop like the rain,
my speech condense like the dew;
like gentle rain on grass,
like showers on new growth. - Go, gather all the Jews to be found in Susa, and hold a fast on my behalf, and neither eat nor drink for three days, night or day. I and my maids will also fast as you do. After that I will go to the king, though it is against the law; and if I perish, I perish.
With all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love. Blessed are those who trust in the Lord,
whose trust is the Lord.
They shall be like a tree planted by water,
sending out its roots by the stream.
It shall not fear when heat comes,
and its leaves shall stay green;
in the year of drought it is not anxious,
and it does not cease to bear fruit.Next verse!With image
