601 God, you have rejected us.
You have broken us down.
You have been angry.
Restore us, again. 2 You have made the land tremble.
You have torn it.
Mend its fractures,
for it quakes. 3 You have shown your people hard things.
You have made us drink the wine that makes us stagger. 4 You have given a banner to those who fear you,
that it may be displayed because of the truth. Selah. 5 So that your beloved may be delivered,
save with your right hand, and answer us.
6 God has spoken from his sanctuary:
“I will triumph.
I will divide Shechem,
and measure out the valley of Succoth. 7 Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine.
Ephraim also is the defense of my head.
Judah is my scepter. 8 Moab is my wash basin.
I will throw my shoe on Edom.
I shout in triumph over Philistia.” 9 Who will bring me into the strong city?
Who has led me to Edom? 10 Haven’t you, God, rejected us?
You don’t go out with our armies, God. 11 Give us help against the adversary,
for the help of man is vain. 12 Through God we shall do valiantly,
for it is he who will tread down our adversaries.
611 Hear my cry, God.
Listen to my prayer. 2 From the end of the earth, I will call to you, when my heart is overwhelmed.
Lead me to the rock that is higher than I. 3 For you have been a refuge for me,
a strong tower from the enemy. 4 I will dwell in your tent forever.
I will take refuge in the shelter of your wings. Selah.
5 For you, God, have heard my vows.
You have given me the heritage of those who fear your name. 6 You will prolong the king’s life;
his years shall be for generations. 7 He shall be enthroned in God’s presence forever.
Appoint your loving kindness and truth, that they may preserve him. 8 So I will sing praise to your name forever,
that I may fulfill my vows daily.
621 My soul rests in God alone.
My salvation is from him. 2 He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress—
I will never be greatly shaken. 3 How long will you assault a man,
would all of you throw him down,
Like a leaning wall, like a tottering fence? 4 They fully intend to throw him down from his lofty place.
They delight in lies.
They bless with their mouth, but they curse inwardly. Selah. 5 My soul, wait in silence for God alone,
for my expectation is from him. 6 He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress.
I will not be shaken. 7 With God is my salvation and my honor.
The rock of my strength, and my refuge, is in God.
8 Trust in him at all times, you people.
Pour out your heart before him.
God is a refuge for us. Selah. 9 Surely men of low degree are just a breath,
and men of high degree are a lie.
In the balances they will go up.
They are together lighter than a breath. 10 Don’t trust in oppression.
Don’t become vain in robbery.
If riches increase,
don’t set your heart on them. 11 God has spoken once;
twice I have heard this,
that power belongs to God. 12 Also to you, Lord, belongs loving kindness,
for you reward every man according to his work.
51 Being therefore justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ; 2 through whom we also have our access by faith into this grace in which we stand. We rejoice in hope of the glory of God. 3 Not only this, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering works perseverance; 4 and perseverance, proven character; and proven character, hope: 5 and hope doesn’t disappoint us, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us.
6 For while we were yet weak, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly. 7 For one will hardly die for a righteous man. Yet perhaps for a righteous person someone would even dare to die. 8 But God commends his own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. 9 Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we will be saved from God’s wrath through him. 10 For if, while we were enemies, we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we will be saved by his life. 11 Not only so, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received the reconciliation.
12 Therefore, as sin entered into the world through one man, and death through sin; and so death passed to all men, because all sinned. 13 For until the law, sin was in the world; but sin is not charged when there is no law. 14 Nevertheless death reigned from Adam until Moses, even over those whose sins weren’t like Adam’s disobedience, who is a foreshadowing of him who was to come. 15 But the free gift isn’t like the trespass. For if by the trespass of the one the many died, much more did the grace of God, and the gift by the grace of the one man, Jesus Christ, abound to the many. 16 The gift is not as through one who sinned: for the judgment came by one to condemnation, but the free gift came of many trespasses to justification. 17 For if by the trespass of the one, death reigned through the one; so much more will those who receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one, Jesus Christ. 18 So then as through one trespass, all men were condemned; even so through one act of righteousness, all men were justified to life. 19 For as through the one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, even so through the obedience of the one, many will be made righteous. 20 The law came in besides, that the trespass might abound; but where sin abounded, grace abounded more exceedingly; 21 that as sin reigned in death, even so grace might reign through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
