Psalms 38:21

I sought Yahweh, and he answered me, and delivered me from all my fears.

At the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, “Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?” which is, being interpreted, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”

About the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, “Eli, Eli, lima sabachthani?” That is, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”

who through faith subdued kingdoms, worked out righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions,

You will tread on the lion and cobra. You will trample the young lion and the serpent underfoot.

Nebuchadnezzar spoke and said, “Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, who has sent his angel, and delivered his servants who trusted in him, and have changed the king’s word, and have yielded their bodies, that they might not serve nor worship any god, except their own God.

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,

Yahweh said, “I have surely seen the affliction of my people who are in Egypt, and have heard their cry because of their taskmasters, for I know their sorrows.

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

For my sighing comes before I eat. My groanings are poured out like water.

“Behold, God is mighty, and doesn’t despise anyone. He is mighty in strength of understanding.

For dogs have surrounded me. A company of evildoers have enclosed me. They have pierced my hands and feet.

I am faint and severely bruised. I have groaned by reason of the anguish of my heart.

For he will deliver the needy when he cries; the poor, who has no helper.

God, don’t keep silent. Don’t keep silent, and don’t be still, God.

He has responded to the prayer of the destitute, and has not despised their prayer.

In all their affliction he was afflicted, and the angel of his presence saved them. In his love and in his pity he redeemed them. He bore them, and carried them all the days of old.

But I trust in you, Yahweh. I said, “You are my God.”

When I kept silence, my bones wasted away through my groaning all day long.

This poor man cried, and Yahweh heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles.

God, don’t be far from me. My God, hurry to help me.

Out of my distress, I called on Yah. Yah answered me with freedom.

Be free from the love of money, content with such things as you have, for he has said, “I will in no way leave you, neither will I in any way forsake you.”

Didn’t he tell me, ‘She is my sister’? She, even she herself, said, ‘He is my brother.’ I have done this in the integrity of my heart and the innocence of my hands.”

But Yahweh was with Joseph, and showed kindness to him, and gave him favor in the sight of the keeper of the prison.

For indeed, I was stolen away out of the land of the Hebrews, and here also I have done nothing that they should put me into the dungeon.”

The name of the other was Eliezer, for he said, “My father’s God was my help and delivered me from Pharaoh’s sword.”

For Yahweh will not forsake his people for his great name’s sake, because it has pleased Yahweh to make you a people for himself.

Answer me when I call, God of my righteousness. Give me relief from my distress. Have mercy on me, and hear my prayer.

Don’t be far from me, for trouble is near. For there is no one to help.

For he has not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted, Neither has he hidden his face from him; but when he cried to him, he heard.

I will wash my hands in innocence, so I will go about your altar, Yahweh,

For Yahweh God is a sun and a shield. Yahweh will give grace and glory. He withholds no good thing from those who walk blamelessly.

You who love Yahweh, hate evil! He preserves the souls of his saints. He delivers them out of the hand of the wicked.

You are my God, and I will give thanks to you. You are my God, I will exalt you.

Tell the righteous “Good!” For they shall eat the fruit of their deeds.

Don’t fear, neither be afraid. Haven’t I declared it to you long ago, and shown it? You are my witnesses. Is there a God besides me? Indeed, there is not. I don’t know any other Rock.”

I bring my righteousness near. It is not far off, and my salvation will not wait. I will grant salvation to Zion, my glory to Israel.

I will also turn my face from them, and they will profane my secret place. Robbers will enter into it, and profane it.

Then Nebuchadnezzar the king was astonished, and rose up in haste. He spoke and said to his counselors, “Didn’t we cast three men bound into the middle of the fire?” They answered the king, “True, O king.”

When he came near to the den to Daniel, he cried with a troubled voice. The king spoke and said to Daniel, “Daniel, servant of the living God, is your God, whom you serve continually, able to deliver you from the lions?”

My God has sent his angel, and has shut the lions’ mouths, and they have not hurt me; because as before him innocence was found in me; and also before you, O king, I have done no harm.”

Then the king was exceedingly glad, and commanded that they should take Daniel up out of the den. So Daniel was taken up out of the den, and no kind of harm was found on him, because he had trusted in his God.

And behold, an angel of the Lord stood by him, and a light shone in the cell. He struck Peter on the side, and woke him up, saying, “Stand up quickly!” His chains fell off his hands.

while he said in his defense, “Neither against the law of the Jews, nor against the temple, nor against Caesar, have I sinned at all.”

He said to me, “These words are faithful and true. The Lord God of the spirits of the prophets sent his angel to show to his bondservants the things which must happen soon.”
