Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one. Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength.

Know therefore that the Lord your God is God; he is the faithful God, keeping his covenant of love to a thousand generations of those who love him and keep his commandments.

Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.

Since you are my rock and my fortress, for the sake of your name lead and guide me.

Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.

And a voice from heaven said, “This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased.”

I will show the holiness of my great name, which has been profaned among the nations, the name you have profaned among them. Then the nations will know that I am the Lord, declares the Sovereign Lord, when I am proved holy through you before their eyes.

As you do not know the path of the wind, or how the body is formed in a mother’s womb, so you cannot understand the work of God, the Maker of all things.

As the deer pants for streams of water, so my soul pants for you, my God.

I will be glad and rejoice in you; I will sing the praises of your name, O Most High.

We love because He first loved us.

And so I will show my greatness and my holiness, and I will make myself known in the sight of many nations. Then they will know that I am the Lord.

No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.

“For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,” declares the Lord.

Whom have I in heaven but you? And earth has nothing I desire besides you.

He says, “Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.”

May God bless us still, so that all the ends of the earth will fear him.

Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God.

How great you are, Sovereign Lord! There is no one like you, and there is no God but you, as we have heard with our own ears.

No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us.

Before the mountains were born or you brought forth the whole world, from everlasting to everlasting you are God.

The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit that we are God’s children.

Then God said, “Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the wild animals, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.”

Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory for ever and ever. Amen.

You believe that there is one God. Good! Even the demons believe that—and shudder.

Oh, the depth of the riches of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable his judgments, and his paths beyond tracing out!

For I am the Lord your God who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, Do not fear; I will help you.

For there is one God and one mediator between God and mankind, the man Christ Jesus.

The Lord your God is with you, the Mighty Warrior who saves. He will take great delight in you; in his love he will no longer rebuke you, but will rejoice over you with singing.

But if from there you seek the Lord your God, you will find him if you seek him with all your heart and with all your soul.

For who is God besides the Lord? And who is the Rock except our God?

“I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God, “who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty.”

Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power.

Keep my commands and follow them. I am the Lord.

I am the Lord, the God of all mankind. Is anything too hard for me?

Who has done this and carried it through, calling forth the generations from the beginning? I, the Lord—with the first of them and with the last—I am he.

This is how we know that we live in him and he in us: He has given us of his Spirit.

All this also comes from the Lord Almighty, whose plan is wonderful, whose wisdom is magnificent.

Our help is in the name of the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth.

The Lord will vindicate me; your love, Lord, endures forever— do not abandon the works of your hands.

Lord, you are my God; I will exalt you and praise your name, for in perfect faithfulness you have done wonderful things, things planned long ago.

Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice!

But I have been the Lord your God ever since you came out of Egypt. You shall acknowledge no God but me, no Savior except me.

While he was still speaking, a bright cloud covered them, and a voice from the cloud said, “This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased. Listen to him!”

The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it.

Our God is in heaven; he does whatever pleases him.

Look to the Lord and his strength; seek his face always.

One thing I ask from the Lord, this only do I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze on the beauty of the Lord and to seek him in his temple.

And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. ‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’ or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.”

“Who can hide in secret places so that I cannot see them?” declares the Lord. “Do not I fill heaven and earth?” declares the Lord.
