“Go and say to My servant Dawiḏ, ‘Thus said יהוה, “Would you build a house for Me to dwell in?
And it came to be, when the commanders of the chariots saw Yehoshaphat, that they said, “It is the sovereign of Yisra’ĕl!” So they turned around to fight against him, and Yehoshaphat cried out, and יהוה helped him, and Elohim moved them to turn away from him.
Blessed be יהוה Elohim of our fathers, who has put this in the sovereign’s heart, to embellish the House of יהוה which is in Yerushalayim,
“O יהוה, I pray, please let Your ear be attentive to the prayer of Your servant, and to the prayer of Your servants who delight to fear Your Name. And let Your servant prosper this day, I pray, and grant him compassion in the presence of this man.” For I was cupbearer to the sovereign.
My days have passed by, my plans have been broken off – the desires of my heart.
Taw יהוה, You have heard the desire of the lowly ones; You prepare their heart; You incline Your ear,
“And you shall speak to him and put the words in his mouth. And I am with your mouth and with his mouth, and I shall teach you what to do.
The fear of יהוה is the discipline of wisdom, And before esteem is humility.
Many are the plans in a man’s heart, But it is the counsel of יהוה that stands.
The steps of a man are from יהוה; What does a man know about his own way?

O יהוה, I know the way of man is not in himself, it is not for man who walks to direct his own steps.
But thanks be to Elohim who puts the same eagerness for you into the heart of Titos.
for it is Elohim who is working in you both to desire and to work for his good pleasure.
