I Hope

I am the Lord your God,
who teaches you what is best for you,
who directs you in the way you should go.
If only you had paid attention to my commands,
your peace would have been like a river,
your righteousness like the waves of the sea.

that you may be able to withstand in the evil day,
and having done all,
to stand.

I will punish the world for its evil,
the wicked for their sins.
I will put an end to the arrogance of the haughty
and will humble the pride of the ruthless.

May the Lord bless you and protect you.
May the Lord smile on you and be gracious to you.
May the Lord show you His favor
and give you His peace.
- NLT

Before I formed you in the womb I knew you;
Before you were born I sanctified you;
I ordained you a prophet to the nations.

Therefore be wise as serpents and harmless as doves.

and I will answer you,
and show you great and mighty things,
which you do not know.

' declares the Lord,

plans to give you hope and a future.'"

for the rights of all who are destitute.
Speak up and judge fairly;
defend the rights of the poor and needy.

"Let not the wise man boast of his wisdom
or the strong man boast of his strength
or the rich man boast of his riches,
but let him who boasts boast about this:
that he understands and knows me,
that I am the Lord,
who exercises kindness,
justice and righteousness on earth,
for in these I delight."
declares the Lord.
- NIV

Therefore,
if anyone is in Christ,
he is a new creation;
old things have passed away;
behold,
all things have become new.
