Jeremiah 14:8

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.

I, even I, am he who blots out your transgressions for my own sake; and I will not remember your sins.

Yahweh is near to all those who call on him, to all who call on him in truth.

“I tell you, keep asking, and it will be given you. Keep seeking, and you will find. Keep knocking, and it will be opened to you.

Then they cry to Yahweh in their trouble, and he brings them out of their distress.

Yahweh’s name is a strong tower: the righteous run to him, and are safe.

You shall call on me, and you shall go and pray to me, and I will listen to you.

Yahweh of Armies is with us. The God of Jacob is our refuge.

but in his own time revealed his word in the message with which I was entrusted according to the commandment of God our Savior;

When you pass through the waters, I will be with you, and through the rivers, they will not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned, and flame will not scorch you.

that by two immutable things, in which it is impossible for God to lie, we may have a strong encouragement, who have fled for refuge to take hold of the hope set before us.

“Therefore Yahweh, the God of Israel, says, ‘I said indeed that your house and the house of your father should walk before me forever.’ But now Yahweh says, ‘Far be it from me; for those who honor me I will honor, and those who despise me will be cursed.

Therefore Yahweh’s anger burns against his people, and he has stretched out his hand against them and has struck them. The mountains tremble, and their dead bodies are as refuse in the middle of the streets. For all this, his anger is not turned away, but his hand is still stretched out.

Abraham called the name of that place “Yahweh Will Provide”. As it is said to this day, “On Yahweh’s mountain, it will be provided.”

For what great nation is there that has a god so near to them as Yahweh our God is whenever we call on him?

You frustrate the plan of the poor, because Yahweh is his refuge.

You called in trouble, and I delivered you. I answered you in the secret place of thunder. I tested you at the waters of Meribah.”

Won’t you revive us again, that your people may rejoice in you?

I cried to you, Yahweh. I said, “You are my refuge, my portion in the land of the living.”

In the fear of Yahweh is a secure fortress, and he will be a refuge for his children.

But the destruction of transgressors and sinners shall be together, and those who forsake Yahweh shall be consumed.

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.

I declare the end from the beginning, and from ancient times things that are not yet done. I say: My counsel will stand, and I will do all that I please.

It will happen that before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear.

I will bring the third part into the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will test them like gold is tested. They will call on my name, and I will hear them. I will say, ‘It is my people;’ and they will say, ‘Yahweh is my God.’ ”

“But as for me, I would seek God. I would commit my cause to God,

Yahweh, you have heard the desire of the humble. You will prepare their heart. You will cause your ear to hear,

In my distress I called on Yahweh, and cried to my God. He heard my voice out of his temple. My cry before him came into his ears.

You who fear Yahweh, praise him! All you descendants of Jacob, glorify him! Stand in awe of him, all you descendants of Israel!

You are my hiding place. You will preserve me from trouble. You will surround me with songs of deliverance.

So that your beloved may be delivered, save with your right hand, and answer us.

Then they cry to Yahweh in their trouble, he saves them out of their distresses.

My help comes from Yahweh, who made heaven and earth.

Then you will call, and Yahweh will answer. You will cry for help, and he will say, ‘Here I am.’ “If you take away from among you the yoke, finger pointing, and speaking wickedly;

“For my people have committed two evils: they have forsaken me, the spring of living waters, and cut out cisterns for themselves: broken cisterns that can’t hold water.

You shall seek me, and find me, when you search for me with all your heart.

‘Call to me, and I will answer you, and will show you great and difficult things, which you don’t know.’

They are new every morning. Great is your faithfulness.

“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.

He said: “Yahweh will roar from Zion, and utter his voice from Jerusalem; and the pastures of the shepherds will mourn, and the top of Carmel will wither.”

They said this testing him, that they might have something to accuse him of. But Jesus stooped down and wrote on the ground with his finger.

If anyone serves me, let him follow me. Where I am, there my servant will also be. If anyone serves me, the Father will honor him.

But may the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a little while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you.

“I am Yahweh your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.

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

You will make your prayer to him, and he will hear you. You will pay your vows.

He prays to God, and he is favorable to him, so that he sees his face with joy. He restores to man his righteousness.

Salvation belongs to Yahweh. May your blessing be on your people.

My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? Why are you so far from helping me, and from the words of my groaning?

You have seen it, Yahweh. Don’t keep silent. Lord, don’t be far from me.

Oh, my Strength, I watch for you, for God is my high tower.

You, who have shown us many and bitter troubles, you will let me live. You will bring us up again from the depths of the earth.

For, behold, those who are far from you shall perish. You have destroyed all those who are unfaithful to you.

In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord. My hand was stretched out in the night, and didn’t get tired. My soul refused to be comforted.

I will lift up my eyes to the hills. Where does my help come from?

If you don’t know, most beautiful among women, follow the tracks of the sheep. Graze your young goats beside the shepherds’ tents.

Therefore the Lord will not rejoice over their young men, neither will he have compassion on their fatherless and widows; for everyone is profane and an evildoer, and every mouth speaks folly. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.

They will only bow down under the prisoners, and will fall under the slain. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.

Behold, God is my salvation. I will trust, and will not be afraid; for Yah, Yahweh, is my strength and song; and he has become my salvation.”

It shall be said in that day, “Behold, this is our God! We have waited for him, and he will save us! This is Yahweh! We have waited for him. We will be glad and rejoice in his salvation!”

“Let them announce and declare to us what will happen! Declare the former things, what they are, that we may consider them, and know the latter end of them; or show us things to come.

Being therefore exalted by the right hand of God, and having received from the Father the promise of the Holy Spirit, he has poured out this, which you now see and hear.

to whom God was pleased to make known what are the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.

But the Lord stood by me and strengthened me, that through me the message might be fully proclaimed, and that all the Gentiles might hear. So I was delivered out of the mouth of the lion.

He, in the days of his flesh, having offered up prayers and petitions with strong crying and tears to him who was able to save him from death, and having been heard for his godly fear,

Call on me in the day of trouble. I will deliver you, and you will honor me.”

For I am Yahweh your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior. I have given Egypt as your ransom, Ethiopia and Seba in your place.

Yahweh will also be a high tower for the oppressed; a high tower in times of trouble.

I myself am Yahweh. Besides me, there is no savior.

Why do you stand far off, Yahweh? Why do you hide yourself in times of trouble?

God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.

Draw near to my soul and redeem it. Ransom me because of my enemies.

For you are my hope, Lord Yahweh, my confidence from my youth.

He will call on me, and I will answer him. I will be with him in trouble. I will deliver him, and honor him.

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.

Where has your beloved gone, you fairest among women? Where has your beloved turned, that we may seek him with you?

Yahweh, be gracious to us. We have waited for you. Be our strength every morning, our salvation also in the time of trouble.

For he said, “Surely, they are my people, children who will not deal falsely;” so he became their Savior.

So when the Samaritans came to him, they begged him to stay with them. He stayed there two days.

For this cause therefore I asked to see you and to speak with you. For because of the hope of Israel I am bound with this chain.”
