- If you keep my commandments, you will remain in my love, even as I have kept my Father’s commandments and remain in his love.
- Behold, God is my helper.
The Lord is the one who sustains my soul. - “Yahweh is my portion,” says my soul.
“Therefore I will hope in him.” - But you, Yahweh, are a shield around me,
my glory, and the one who lifts up my head. - “For my thoughts are not your thoughts,
and your ways are not my ways,” says Yahweh. - In this my Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; and so you will be my disciples.
- If you love me, keep my commandments.
- For you are my rock and my fortress,
therefore for your name’s sake lead me and guide me. - In the multitude of my thoughts within me,
your comforts delight my soul. - I will lift up my eyes to the hills.
Where does my help come from?
My help comes from Yahweh,
who made heaven and earth. - 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. - Listen, my son, and receive my sayings.
The years of your life will be many. - I spread out my hands to you.
My soul thirsts for you, like a parched land. Selah. - But as for me, I will look to Yahweh.
I will wait for the God of my salvation.
My God will hear 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. - Jesus said to her, “Don’t hold me, for I haven’t yet ascended to my Father; but go to my brothers and tell them, ‘I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.’”
- My soul, you have said to Yahweh, “You are my Lord.
Apart from you I have no good thing.” - My son, don’t forget my teaching,
but let your heart keep my commandments,
for they will add to you length of days,
years of life, and peace. - Hear my prayer, Yahweh.
Listen to my petitions.
In your faithfulness and righteousness, relieve me. - My son, attend to my words.
Turn your ear to my sayings.
Let them not depart from your eyes.
Keep them in the center of your heart. - My times are in your hand.
Deliver me from the hand of my enemies, and from those who persecute me. - My lips shall shout for joy!
My soul, which you have redeemed, sings praises to you! - Yahweh, the Lord, is my strength.
He makes my feet like deer’s feet,
and enables me to go in high places. - I have taken your testimonies as a heritage forever,
for they are the joy of my heart. - He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High
will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.
I will say of Yahweh, “He is my refuge and my fortress;
my God, in whom I trust.”
