Mine eye mourneth by reason of affliction: LORD, I have called daily upon thee, I have stretched out my hands unto thee.
Have mercy upon me, O LORD, for I am in trouble: Mine eye is consumed with grief, yea, my soul and my belly.
For my life is spent with grief, And my years with sighing: My strength faileth because of mine iniquity, And my bones are consumed.
The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; My God, my strength, in whom I will trust; My buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower.
For he hath not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted; Neither hath he hid his face from him; But when he cried unto him, he heard.
For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.
Many sorrows shall be to the wicked: But he that trusteth in the LORD, mercy shall compass him about.
The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; And saveth such as be of a contrite spirit.
For his anger endureth but a moment; in his favour is life: Weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.
These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.
Then he said unto them, Go your way, eat the fat, and drink the sweet, and send portions unto them for whom nothing is prepared: for this day is holy unto our Lord: neither be ye sorry; for the joy of the LORD is your strength.
Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.
Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.
Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart: for I am called by thy name, O LORD God of hosts.
I, even I, am he that comforteth you: who art thou, that thou shouldest be afraid of a man that shall die, and of the son of man which shall be made as grass;
And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
There shall not any man be able to stand before thee all the days of thy life: as I was with Moses, so I will be with thee: I will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.
Although the fig tree shall not blossom, Neither shall fruit be in the vines; The labour of the olive shall fail, And the fields shall yield no meat; The flock shall be cut off from the fold, And there shall be no herd in the stalls:
Yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will joy in the God of my salvation.
And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; Thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
For the needy shall not alway be forgotten: The expectation of the poor shall not perish for ever.
Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, Even the most High, thy habitation;
There shall no evil befall thee, Neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.
For there is hope of a tree, If it be cut down, that it will sprout again, And that the tender branch thereof will not cease.
