I will never forget your precepts, for by them you have preserved my life.
I delight in your decrees; I will not neglect your word.
I am laid low in the dust; preserve my life according to your word.
My comfort in my suffering is this: Your promise preserves my life.
The Spirit gives life; the flesh counts for nothing. The words I have spoken to you—they are full of the Spirit and life.
For you have been born again, not of perishable seed, but of imperishable, through the living and enduring word of God.
