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

The Almighty is beyond our reach and exalted in power; in his justice and great righteousness, he does not oppress.

For everyone born of God overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world, even our faith.

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

The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of our God endures forever.

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

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

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.”

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.

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.

He reveals deep and hidden things; he knows what lies in darkness, and light dwells with him.

Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows.

A mediator, however, implies more than one party; but God is one.

This is the word of the Lord to Zerubbabel: ‘Not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit,’ says the Lord Almighty.

You, Lord, reign forever; your throne endures from generation to generation.

Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up.

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.

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!”

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

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

For those who find me find life and receive favor from the Lord.

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

You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good to accomplish what is now being done, the saving of many lives.

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

But the eyes of the Lord are on those who fear him, on those whose hope is in his unfailing love.

Now this is eternal life: that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.

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

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

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.

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

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

This is the message we have heard from him and declare to you: God is light; in him there is no darkness at all.

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.

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

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

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.

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

He builds his lofty palace in the heavens and sets its foundation on the earth; he calls for the waters of the sea and pours them out over the face of the land— the Lord is his name.

Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.

Honor your father and your mother, so that you may live long in the land the Lord your God is giving you.

We love because He first loved us.

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

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

For every house is built by someone, but God is the builder of everything.

Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord, the people he chose for his inheritance.

So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.

God is faithful, who has called you into fellowship with his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.

I say to the Lord, “You are my Lord; apart from you I have no good thing.”

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

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