Many are the sorrows of the wicked, but steadfast love surrounds the one who trusts in the Lord.

I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!” May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope.Īnd those who know your name put their trust in you, for you, O Lord, have not forsaken those who seek you. The Lord is my strength and my shield in him my heart trusts, and I am helped my heart exults, and with my song I give thanks to him. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.Īnd without faith it is impossible to please him, for whoever would draw near to God must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him. Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. For the evildoers shall be cut off, but those who wait for the Lord shall inherit the land.įor I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope. What can flesh do to me?īe still before the Lord and wait patiently for him fret not yourself over the one who prospers in his way, over the man who carries out evil devices! Refrain from anger, and forsake wrath! Fret not yourself it tends only to evil. In God, whose word I praise, in God I trust I shall not be afraid.
