Psalms 86:2

Cast your burden on Yahweh and he will sustain you. He will never allow the righteous to be moved.

“His lord said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a few things, I will set you over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.’

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

I have been young, and now am old, yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his children begging for bread.

Restore to me the joy of your salvation. Uphold me with a willing spirit.

Now before the feast of the Passover, Jesus, knowing that his time had come that he would depart from this world to the Father, having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them to the end.

I am the vine. You are the branches. He who remains in me and I in him bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.

even as it is written, “Behold, I lay in Zion a stumbling stone and a rock of offense; and no one who believes in him will be disappointed.”

There will be no curse any more. The throne of God and of the Lamb will be in it, and his servants will serve him.

“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.

I will extol you, Yahweh, for you have raised me up, and have not made my foes to rejoice over me.

He will repay the evil to my enemies. Destroy them in your truth.

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

Yahweh, truly I am your servant. I am your servant, the son of your servant girl. You have freed me from my chains.

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

I will walk in liberty, for I have sought your precepts.

that he may guard the paths of justice, and preserve the way of his saints.

for Yahweh will be your confidence, and will keep your foot from being taken.

that they may all be one; even as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that they also may be one in us; that the world may believe that you sent me.

There is one body and one Spirit, even as you also were called in one hope of your calling,

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.”

as free, and not using your freedom for a cloak of wickedness, but as bondservants of God.

Yahweh said to Moses, “When you go back into Egypt, see that you do before Pharaoh all the wonders which I have put in your hand, but I will harden his heart and he will not let the people go.

For it was of Yahweh to harden their hearts, to come against Israel in battle, that he might utterly destroy them, that they might have no favor, but that he might destroy them, as Yahweh commanded Moses.

Hannah prayed, and said: “My heart exults in Yahweh! My horn is exalted in Yahweh. My mouth is enlarged over my enemies, because I rejoice in your salvation.

that I may show all of your praise. I will rejoice in your salvation in the gates of the daughter of Zion.

You will destroy their descendants from the earth, their posterity from among the children of men.

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.

You have not shut me up into the hand of the enemy. You have set my feet in a large place.

By this I know that you delight in me, because my enemy doesn’t triumph over me.

He will not allow your foot to be moved. He who keeps you will not slumber.

Those who trust in Yahweh are as Mount Zion, which can’t be moved, but remains forever.

But the wicked will be cut off from the land. The treacherous will be rooted out of it.

but the children of the Kingdom will be thrown out into the outer darkness. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”

Righteous Father, the world hasn’t known you, but I knew you; and these knew that you sent me.

Being made free from sin, you became bondservants of righteousness.

What then? That which Israel seeks for, that he didn’t obtain, but the chosen ones obtained it, and the rest were hardened.

We are courageous, I say, and are willing rather to be absent from the body and to be at home with the Lord.

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faith,

then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air. So we will be with the Lord forever.

Follow after peace with all men, and the sanctification without which no man will see the Lord,

receiving the result of your faith, the salvation of your souls.

But Sihon king of Heshbon would not let us pass by him; for Yahweh your God hardened his spirit and made his heart obstinate, that he might deliver him into your hand, as it is today.

For Yahweh is righteous. He loves righteousness. The upright shall see his face.

lest my enemy say, “I have prevailed against him;” lest my adversaries rejoice when I fall.

Let me not be disappointed, Yahweh, for I have called on you. Let the wicked be disappointed. Let them be silent in Sheol.

A man’s steps are established by Yahweh. He delights in his way.

But as for me, I am like a green olive tree in God’s house. I trust in God’s loving kindness forever and ever.

Be merciful to me, God, for man wants to swallow me up. All day long, he attacks and oppresses me.

God, you are my God. I will earnestly seek you. My soul thirsts for you. My flesh longs for you, in a dry and weary land, where there is no water.

Establish my footsteps in your word. Don’t let any iniquity have dominion over me.

Revive me, Yahweh, for your name’s sake. In your righteousness, bring my soul out of trouble.

The way of the wicked is like darkness. They don’t know what they stumble over.

Lord, according to all your righteousness, let your anger and please let your wrath be turned away from your city Jerusalem, your holy mountain; because for our sins, and for the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem and your people have become a reproach to all who are around us.

yet I will rejoice in Yahweh. I will be joyful in the God of my salvation!

You will know the truth, and the truth will make you free.”

My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.

If I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and will receive you to myself; that where I am, you may be there also.

Father, I desire that they also whom you have given me be with me where I am, that they may see my glory, which you have given me, for you loved me before the foundation of the world.

For the Scripture says, “Whoever believes in him will not be disappointed.”

For am I now seeking the favor of men, or of God? Or am I striving to please men? For if I were still pleasing men, I wouldn’t be a servant of Christ.

and raised us up with him, and made us to sit with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus,

James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are in the Dispersion: Greetings.

who by the power of God are guarded through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.

Simon Peter, a servant and apostle of Jesus Christ, to those who have obtained a like precious faith with us in the righteousness of our God and Savior, Jesus Christ:

the Lord knows how to deliver the godly out of temptation and to keep the unrighteous under punishment for the day of judgment,

Jude, a servant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James, to those who are called, sanctified by God the Father, and kept for Jesus Christ:

These are those who were not defiled with women, for they are virgins. These are those who follow the Lamb wherever he goes. These were redeemed by Jesus from among men, the first fruits to God and to the Lamb.

Yes, he loves the people. All his saints are in your hand. They sat down at your feet. Each receives your words.

Though men may rise up to pursue you, and to seek your soul, yet the soul of my lord will be bound in the bundle of life with Yahweh your God. He will sling out the souls of your enemies, as from the hollow of a sling.

David said, “As Yahweh lives, Yahweh will strike him; or his day shall come to die; or he shall go down into battle and perish.

But know that Yahweh has set apart for himself him who is godly: Yahweh will hear when I call to him.

Why are you in despair, my soul? Why are you disturbed within me? Hope in God! For I shall still praise him: my Savior, my helper, and my God.

God will likewise destroy you forever. He will take you up, and pluck you out of your tent, and root you out of the land of the living.

But you, God, will bring them down into the pit of destruction. Bloodthirsty and deceitful men shall not live out half their days, but I will trust in you.

When I said, “My foot is slipping!” Your loving kindness, Yahweh, held me up.

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

Hear my prayer, Yahweh. Listen to my petitions. In your faithfulness and righteousness, relieve me.

for this is my blood of the new covenant, which is poured out for many for the remission of sins.

My spirit has rejoiced in God my Savior,

to the end he may establish your hearts blameless in holiness before our God and Father at the coming of our Lord Jesus with all his saints.

to Jesus, the mediator of a new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling that speaks better than that of Abel.

Now may the God of peace, who brought again from the dead the great shepherd of the sheep with the blood of an eternal covenant, our Lord Jesus,

He will keep the feet of his holy ones, but the wicked will be put to silence in darkness; for no man will prevail by strength.

But I trust in your loving kindness. My heart rejoices in your salvation.

Preserve me, God, for I take refuge in you.

He brought me out also into a large place. He delivered me, because he delighted in me.

My God, I have trusted in you. Don’t let me be shamed. Don’t let my enemies triumph over me.

Oh keep my soul, and deliver me. Let me not be disappointed, for I take refuge in you.

In you, Yahweh, I take refuge. Let me never be disappointed. Deliver me in your righteousness.

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

For Yahweh loves justice, and doesn’t forsake his saints. They are preserved forever, but the children of the wicked shall be cut off.

“Gather my saints together to me, those who have made a covenant with me by sacrifice.”

I am yours. Save me, for I have sought your precepts.

In your loving kindness, cut off my enemies, and destroy all those who afflict my soul, For I am your servant.

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.

I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy Father, keep them through your name which you have given me, that they may be one, even as we are.

But now, being made free from sin and having become servants of God, you have your fruit of sanctification and the result of eternal life.

So then, he has mercy on whom he desires, and he hardens whom he desires.
