Isaiah 50:10

Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding.

Commit your deeds to Yahweh, and your plans shall succeed.

Commit your way to Yahweh. Trust also in him, and he will do this:

Don’t you be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you. Yes, I will help you. Yes, I will uphold you with the right hand of my righteousness.

Though I walk in the middle of trouble, you will revive me. You will stretch out your hand against the wrath of my enemies. Your right hand will save me.

In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God.

Yahweh is on my side. I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?

I will not be afraid of tens of thousands of people who have set themselves against me on every side.

But you, Yahweh, are a shield around me, my glory, and the one who lifts up my head.

You are the light of the world. A city located on a hill can’t be hidden.

Jesus therefore said to them, “Yet a little while the light is with you. Walk while you have the light, that darkness doesn’t overtake you. He who walks in the darkness doesn’t know where he is going.

Arise, cry out in the night, at the beginning of the watches! Pour out your heart like water before the face of the Lord. Lift up your hands toward him for the life of your young children, who faint for hunger at the head of every street.

the people who sat in darkness saw a great light, to those who sat in the region and shadow of death, to them light has dawned.”

This is the judgment, that the light has come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the light; for their works were evil.

For you were once darkness, but are now light in the Lord. Walk as children of light,

The Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Grace be with you. Amen.

Now, Israel, what does Yahweh your God require of you, but to fear Yahweh your God, to walk in all his ways, to love him, and to serve Yahweh your God with all your heart and with all your soul,

for I will give you a mouth and wisdom which all your adversaries will not be able to withstand or to contradict.

Jesus said to her, “Didn’t I tell you that if you believed, you would see God’s glory?”

Without faith it is impossible to be well pleasing to him, for he who comes to God must believe that he exists, and that he is a rewarder of those who seek him.

that you might fear Yahweh your God, to keep all his statutes and his commandments, which I command you—you, your son, and your son’s son, all the days of your life; and that your days may be prolonged.

Let darkness and the shadow of death claim it for their own. Let a cloud dwell on it. Let all that makes black the day terrify it.

These things I remember, and pour out my soul within me, how I used to go with the crowd, and led them to God’s house, with the voice of joy and praise, a multitude keeping a holy day.

though you have crushed us in the haunt of jackals, and covered us with the shadow of death.

For in the multitude of dreams there are vanities, as well as in many words; but you must fear God.

Indeed, he says, “It is too light a thing that you should be my servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob, and to restore the preserved of Israel. I will also give you as a light to the nations, that you may be my salvation to the end of the earth.”

What then shall we say about these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?

For it became him, for whom are all things, and through whom are all things, in bringing many children to glory, to make the author of their salvation perfect through sufferings.

Trust in Yahweh forever; for in Yah, Yahweh, is an everlasting Rock.

I have come as a light into the world, that whoever believes in me may not remain in the darkness.

when his lamp shone on my head, and by his light I walked through darkness,

What man is he who fears Yahweh? He shall instruct him in the way that he shall choose.

The friendship of Yahweh is with those who fear him. He will show them his covenant.

Yahweh is my strength and my shield. My heart has trusted in him, and I am helped. Therefore my heart greatly rejoices. With my song I will thank him.

Trust in Yahweh, and do good. Dwell in the land, and enjoy safe pasture.

Why are you in despair, my soul? Why are you disturbed within me? Hope in God! For I shall still praise him, the saving help of my countenance, and my God.

Having been made perfect, he became to all of those who obey him the author of eternal salvation,

casting all your worries on him, because he cares for you.

He stood before Yahweh’s altar in the presence of all the assembly of Israel, and spread out his hands

They rose early in the morning, and went out into the wilderness of Tekoa. As they went out, Jehoshaphat stood and said, “Listen to me, Judah, and you inhabitants of Jerusalem! Believe in Yahweh your God, so you will be established! Believe his prophets, so you will prosper.”

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me. Your rod and your staff, they comfort me.

Why are you in despair, my soul? Why are you disturbed within me? Hope in God! For I shall still praise him for the saving help of his presence.

Be merciful to me, God, be merciful to me, for my soul takes refuge in you. Yes, in the shadow of your wings, I will take refuge, until disaster has passed.

Trust in him at all times, you people. Pour out your heart before him. God is a refuge for us.

Yahweh of Armies, blessed is the man who trusts in you.

Blessed is everyone who fears Yahweh, who walks in his ways.

My mouth will speak the praise of Yahweh. Let all flesh bless his holy name forever and ever.

For you are my lamp, Yahweh. Yahweh will light up my darkness.

While he was still talking with them, behold, the messenger came down to him. Then he said, “Behold, this evil is from Yahweh. Why should I wait for Yahweh any longer?”

They were helped against them, and the Hagrites were delivered into their hand, and all who were with them; for they cried to God in the battle, and he answered them, because they put their trust in him.

But the former governors who were before me were supported by the people, and took bread and wine from them, plus forty shekels of silver; yes, even their servants ruled over the people; but I didn’t do so, because of the fear of God.

Behold, he will kill me. I have no hope. Nevertheless, I will maintain my ways before him.

He has walled up my way so that I can’t pass, and has set darkness in my paths.
