¹² So that his glory might have praise through us who first had hope in Christ:

⁶ To the praise of the glory of his grace, which he freely gave to us in the Loved One:

¹³ But it is right for us to give praise to God at all times for you, brothers, loved by the Lord, because it was the purpose of God from the first that you might have salvation, being made holy by the Spirit and by faith in what is true:

¹³ In whom you, having been given the true word, the good news of your salvation, and through your faith in him, were given the sign of the Holy Spirit of hope,

¹⁴ Which is the first-fruit of our heritage, till God gets back that which is his, to the praise of his glory.

¹⁸ See my servant, the man of my selection, my loved one in whom my soul is well pleased: I will put my Spirit on him, and he will make my decision clear to the Gentiles.

¹⁹ His coming will not be with fighting or loud cries; and his voice will not be lifted up in the streets.

²⁰ The crushed stem will not be broken by him; and the feebly burning light will he not put out, till he has made righteousness overcome all.

²¹ And in his name will the Gentiles put their hope.

¹ Let not your heart be troubled: have faith in God and have faith in me.

¹² And again Isaiah says, There will be the root of Jesse, and he who comes to be the ruler over the Gentiles; in him will the Gentiles put their hope.

¹³ Now may the God of hope make you full of joy and peace through faith, so that all hope may be yours in the power of the Holy Spirit.

⁷ That in the time to come he might make clear the full wealth of his grace in his mercy to us in Christ Jesus:

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

¹⁸ Of his purpose he gave us being, by his true word, so that we might be, in a sense, the first-fruits of all the things which he had made.

⁶ In his days Judah will have salvation and Israel will be living without fear: and this is the name by which he will be named, The Lord is our righteousness.

⁵ This is what the Lord has said: Cursed is the man who puts his faith in man, and makes flesh his arm, and whose heart is turned away from the Lord.

⁶ For he will be like the brushwood in the upland, and will not see when good comes; but his living-place will be in the dry places in the waste land, in a salt and unpeopled land.

⁷ A blessing is on the man who puts his faith in the Lord, and whose hope the Lord is.

²⁵ In the Lord will all the seed of Israel get their rights, and they will give glory to him.

¹² For fear that he may be angry, causing destruction to come on you, because he is quickly moved to wrath. Happy are all those who put their faith in him.

³ Put not your faith in rulers, or in the son of man, in whom there is no salvation.

⁴ Man's breath goes out, he is turned back again to dust; in that day all his purposes come to an end.

⁵ Happy is the man who has the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the Lord his God:

¹⁰ And in that day, the eyes of the nations will be turned to the root of Jesse which will be lifted up as the flag of the peoples; and his resting-place will be glory.

² See, God is my salvation; I will have faith in the Lord, without fear: for the Lord Jah is my strength and song; and he has become my salvation.

¹ See, a king will be ruling in righteousness, and chiefs will give right decisions.

² And a man will be as a safe place from the wind, and a cover from the storm; as rivers of water in a dry place, as the shade of a great rock in a waste land.

¹ See my servant, whom I am supporting, my loved one, in whom I take delight: I have put my spirit on him; he will give the knowledge of the true God to the nations.

² He will make no cry, his voice will not be loud: his words will not come to men's ears in the streets.

³ He will not let a crushed stem be quite broken, and he will not let a feebly burning light be put out: he will go on sending out the true word to the peoples.

⁴ His light will not be put out, and he will not be crushed, till he has given the knowledge of the true God to the earth, and the sea-lands will be waiting for his teaching.

²³ By myself have I taken an oath, a true word has gone from my mouth, and will not be changed, that to me every knee will be bent, and every tongue will give honour.

²¹ Who through him have faith in God who took him up again from the dead into glory; so that your faith and hope might be in God.

¹² And for which I undergo these things: but I have no feeling of shame. For I have knowledge of him in whom I have faith, and I am certain that he is able to keep that which I have given into his care till that day.
