¹⁶ That in the wealth of his glory he would make you strong with power through his Spirit in your hearts;

¹⁷ To you, O my strength, will I make my song: because God is my high tower, even the God of my mercy.

¹⁰ Have no fear, for I am with you; do not be looking about in trouble, for I am your God; I will give you strength, yes, I will be your helper; yes, my true right hand will be your support.

²⁸ Come to me, all you who are troubled and weighted down with care, and I will give you rest.

¹ <Of David.> The Lord is my light and my salvation; who is then a cause of fear to me? the Lord is the strength of my life; who is a danger to me?

²⁶ My flesh and my heart are wasting away: but God is the Rock of my heart and my eternal heritage.

⁵⁰ This is my comfort in my trouble; that your sayings have given me life.

⁷ The Lord is my strength and my breastplate, my heart had faith in him and I am helped; for this cause my heart is full of rapture, and I will give him praise in my song.

¹³ I am able to do all things through him who gives me strength.

¹¹ Yours, O Lord, is the strength and the power and the glory, and the authority and the honour: for everything in heaven and on earth is yours; yours is the kingdom, O Lord, and you are lifted up as head over all.

³¹ But those who are waiting for the Lord will have new strength; they will get wings like eagles: running, they will not be tired, and walking, they will have no weariness.

⁶ For I am certain of this very thing, that he by whom the good work was started in you will make it complete till the day of Jesus Christ:

³ But the Lord is true, who will give you strength and keep you safe from evil.

⁸ With him is an arm of flesh; but we have the Lord our God, helping us and fighting for us. And the people put their faith in what Hezekiah, king of Judah, said.

⁷ But be you strong and let not your hands be feeble, for your work will be rewarded.

¹⁷ Ah Lord God! see, you have made the heaven and the earth by your great power and by your outstretched arm, and there is nothing you are not able to do:

³ To give them a fair head-dress in place of dust, the oil of joy in place of the clothing of grief, praise in place of sorrow; so that they may be named trees of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, and so that he may have glory.

¹⁰ So I take pleasure in being feeble, in unkind words, in needs, in cruel attacks, in troubles, on account of Christ: for when I am feeble, then am I strong.

¹⁹ Among all my troubled thoughts, your comforts are the delight of my soul.

⁷ Some put their faith in carriages and some in horses; but we will be strong in the name of the Lord our God.

³⁰ And you are to have love for the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength.

¹⁹ The Lord God is my strength, and he makes my feet like roes' feet, guiding me on my high places. For the chief music-maker on corded instruments.

⁷ The Lord is my strength and my breastplate, my heart had faith in him and I am helped; for this cause my heart is full of rapture, and I will give him praise in my song.

⁸ The Lord is their strength, and a strong place of salvation for his king.

⁹ Be a saviour to your people, and send a blessing on your heritage: be their guide, and let them be lifted up for ever.

⁴ (For the arms with which we are fighting are not those of the flesh, but are strong before God for the destruction of high places);

²⁹ He gives power to the feeble, increasing the strength of him who has no force.

²³ The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord, and he takes delight in his way.

²⁴ Even if he has a fall he will not be without help: for the hand of the Lord is supporting him.

²⁵ I have been young, and now am old, but I have not seen the good man without help, or his children looking for bread.

³¹ For who is God but the Lord? or who is a Rock but our God?

⁷ For God did not give us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of self-control.

⁸ But you will have power, when the Holy Spirit has come on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and all Judaea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.

⁴ You are of God, my little children, and you have overcome them because he who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.

⁹ And he said to me, My grace is enough for you, for my power is made complete in what is feeble. Most gladly, then, will I take pride in my feeble body, so that the power of Christ may be on me.

¹⁰ So I take pleasure in being feeble, in unkind words, in needs, in cruel attacks, in troubles, on account of Christ: for when I am feeble, then am I strong.

¹¹ I have been forced by you to become foolish, though it was right for my praise to have come from you: for in no way was I less than the chief of the Apostles, though I am nothing.

² You have made clear your strength even out of the mouths of babies at the breast, because of those who are against you; so that you may put to shame the cruel and violent man.

¹³ I had almost given up my hope of seeing the blessing of the Lord in the land of the living.

¹⁴ Let your hope be in the Lord: take heart and be strong; yes, let your hope be in the Lord.

¹⁴ The Lord is my strength and my song; he has become my salvation.

¹ <To the chief music-maker. Of the servant of the Lord, of David, who said the words of this song to the Lord on the day when the Lord made him free from the hand of all his haters, and from the hand of Saul; and he said,> I will give you my love, O Lord, my strength.

² The Lord is my Rock, my walled town, and my saviour; my God, my Rock, in him will I put my faith; my breastplate, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower.

³ I will send up my cry to the Lord, who is to be praised; so will I be made safe from those who are against me.

³¹ For the Lord does not give a man up for ever.

³² For though he sends grief, still he will have pity in the full measure of his love.

³³ For he has no pleasure in troubling and causing grief to the children of men.

³⁴ In a man's crushing under his feet all the prisoners of the earth,

¹¹ Let your search be for the Lord and for his strength; let your hearts ever be turned to him.

²² The Lord will be the saviour of the souls of his servants, and no one who has faith in him will be put to shame.

⁷ Even when trouble is round me, you will give me life; your hand will be stretched out against the wrath of my haters, and your right hand will be my salvation.

³ For they did not make the land theirs by their swords, and it was not their arms which kept them safe; but your right hand, and your arm, and the light of your face, because you had pleasure in them.

²⁰ And David said to his son Solomon, Be strong and of a good heart and do your work; have no fear and do not be troubled, for the Lord God, my God, is with you; he will not give you up, and his face will not be turned away from you, till all the work necessary for the house of the Lord is complete.

¹⁶ But I will make songs of your power; yes, I will give cries of joy for your mercy in the morning; because you have been my strength and my high tower in the day of my trouble.

²⁹ By your help I have made a way through the wall which was shutting me in; by the help of my God I have gone over a wall.

¹⁴ Let your hope be in the Lord: take heart and be strong; yes, let your hope be in the Lord.

³⁹ But the Lord is the saviour of the upright: he is their strength in the time of trouble.

²⁰ You, who have sent great and bitter troubles on me, will give me life again, lifting me up from the deep waters of the underworld.

²¹ You will make me greater than before, and give me comfort on every side.

²² I will give praise to you with instruments of music, O my God, for you are true; I will make songs to you with music, O Holy One of Israel.

⁵ Happy is the man whose strength is in you; in whose heart are the highways to Zion.

⁶ Going through the valley of balsam-trees, they make it a place of springs; it is clothed with blessings by the early rain.

⁷ They go from strength to strength; every one of them comes before God in Zion.

⁸ O Lord God of armies, let my prayer come to you: give ear, O God of Jacob. (Selah.)

¹⁷ The poor and crushed are looking for water where no water is, and their tongue is dry for need of it: I the Lord will give ear to their prayer, I the God of Israel will not give them up.

¹⁴ For this reason the Lord, the God of armies, has said: Because you have said this, I will make my words in your mouth a fire, and this people wood, and they will be burned up by it.

¹³ Be on the watch, unmoved in the faith, and be strong like men.

¹⁰ Lastly, be strong in the Lord, and in the strength of his power.

¹⁸ The Lord is near the broken-hearted; he is the saviour of those whose spirits are crushed down.

³ When my spirit is overcome, your eyes are on my goings; nets have been secretly placed in the way in which I go.

¹⁷ O God, you have been my teacher from the time when I was young; and I have been talking of your works of wonder even till now.

¹⁸ Now when I am old and grey-headed, O God, give me not up; till I have made clear your strength to this generation, and your power to all those to come.

¹⁹ Your righteousness, O God, is very high; you have done great things; O God, who is like you?

²⁶ And Jesus, looking at them, said, With men this is not possible; but with God all things are possible.

¹³ Now when they saw that Peter and John were without fear, though they were men of no education or learning, they were greatly surprised; and they took note of them that they had been with Jesus.

¹² If we go on to the end, then we will be ruling with him: if we say we have no knowledge of him, then he will say he has no knowledge of us:

⁴ And in my preaching there were no honeyed words of wisdom, but I was dependent on the power of the Spirit to make it clear to you:

⁵ So that your faith might be based not on man's wisdom but on the power of God.

⁶ But still we have wisdom for those who are complete in knowledge, though not the wisdom of this world, and not of the rulers of this world, who are coming to nothing:

²⁸ My soul is wasted with sorrow; give me strength again in keeping with your word

¹⁰ Then he said to them, Go away now, and take the fat for your food and the sweet for your drink, and send some to him for whom nothing is made ready: for this day is holy to our Lord: and let there be no grief in your hearts; for the joy of the Lord is your strong place.

³¹ What may we say about these things? If God is for us, who is against us?

¹ <To the chief music-maker. A Psalm. Of David.> The king will be glad in your strength, O Lord; how great will be his delight in your salvation!

²⁰ Because it is not you who say the words, but the Spirit of your Father in you.

²⁰ Now to him who is able to do in full measure more than all our desires or thoughts, through the power which is working in us,

²¹ To him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations for ever and ever. So be it.

¹² For the word of God is living and full of power, and is sharper than any two-edged sword, cutting through and making a division even of the soul and the spirit, the bones and the muscles, and quick to see the thoughts and purposes of the heart.

²⁸ And we are conscious that all things are working together for good to those who have love for God, and have been marked out by his purpose.

¹² And their strength will be in the Lord; and their pride will be in his name, says the Lord.

¹⁸ For the word of the cross seems foolish to those who are on the way to destruction; but to us who are on the way to salvation it is the power of God.

⁴ For you have been a strong place for the poor and the crushed in their trouble, a safe place from the storm, a shade from the heat, when the wrath of the cruel ones is like a winter storm.

²⁰ For from the first making of the world, those things of God which the eye is unable to see, that is, his eternal power and existence, are fully made clear, he having given the knowledge of them through the things which he has made, so that men have no reason for wrongdoing:

⁵ Not as if we were able by ourselves to do anything for which we might take the credit; but our power comes from God;

⁶ This is the word of the Lord to Zerubbabel, saying, Not by force or by power, but by my spirit, says the Lord of armies.

²⁴ Put away fear and let your heart be strong, all you whose hope is in the Lord.
