³⁸ Now he is not the God of the dead but of the living: for all men are living to him.

³ For your life on earth is done, and you have a secret life with Christ in God.

⁴ At the coming of Christ who is our life, you will be seen with him in glory.

²⁵ Jesus said to her, I am myself that day and that life; he who has faith in me will have life even if he is dead;

²⁶ And no one who is living and has faith in me will ever see death. Is this your faith?

¹⁰ For his death was a death to sin, but his life now is a life which he is living to God.

¹¹ Even so see yourselves as dead to sin, but living to God in Christ Jesus.

¹ And I saw a river of water of life, clear as glass, coming out of the high seat of God and of the Lamb,

¹⁵ This is why they are before the high seat of God; and they are his servants day and night in his house: and he who is seated on the high seat will be a tent over them.

¹⁶ They will never be in need of food or drink: and they will never again be troubled by the burning heat of the sun:

¹⁷ For the Lamb who is on the high seat will be their keeper and their guide to fountains of living water: and God will make glad their eyes for ever.

¹⁶ But now their desire is for a better country, that is to say, for one in heaven; and so it is no shame to God to be named their God; for he has made ready a town for them.

⁴ For he was feeble in that he was put to death on the cross, but he is living by the power of God. And we are feeble in him, but we will be living with him through the power of God in relation to you.

¹⁶ And what agreement has the house of God with images? for we are a house of the living God; even as God has said, I will be living among them, and walking with them; and I will be their God, and they will be my people.

⁷ For every man's life and every man's death has a relation to others as well as to himself.

⁸ As long as we have life we are living to the Lord; or if we give up our life it is to the Lord; so if we are living, or if our life comes to an end, we are the Lord's.

⁹ And for this purpose Christ went into death and came back again, that he might be the Lord of the dead and of the living.

²² But now, being free from sin, and having been made servants to God, you have your fruit in that which is holy, and the end is eternal life.

²³ For the reward of sin is death; but what God freely gives is eternal life in Jesus Christ our Lord.

¹⁹ A little time longer, and the world will see me no more; but you will see me; and you will be living because I am living.

⁵⁷ As the living Father has sent me, and I have life because of the Father, even so he who takes me for his food will have life because of me.

¹ <A Song of praise. Of David.> Let me give glory to you, O God, my King; and blessing to your name for ever and ever.

² Every day will I give you blessing, praising your name for ever and ever.

²³ You who have fear of the Lord, give him praise; all you seed of Jacob, give him glory; go in fear of him, all you seed of Israel.

²⁴ For he has not been unmoved by the pain of him who is troubled; or kept his face covered from him; but he has given an answer to his cry.

²⁵ My praise will be of you in the great meeting: I will make my offerings before his worshippers.

²⁶ The poor will have a feast of good things: those who make search for the Lord will give him praise: your heart will have life for ever.

⁵ The Lord is my heritage and the wine of my cup; you are the supporter of my right.

⁶ Fair are the places marked out for me; I have a noble heritage.

⁷ I will give praise to the Lord who has been my guide; knowledge comes to me from my thoughts in the night.

⁸ I have put the Lord before me at all times; because he is at my right hand, I will not be moved.

⁹ Because of this my heart is glad, and my glory is full of joy: while my flesh takes its rest in hope.

¹⁰ For you will not let my soul be prisoned in the underworld; you will not let your loved one see the place of death.

¹¹ You will make clear to me the way of life; where you are joy is complete; in your right hand there are pleasures for ever and ever.
