⁷ O Israel, have hope in the Lord; for with the Lord is mercy and full salvation.

³ O Israel, have hope in the Lord, from this time and for ever.

¹ My little children, I am writing these things to you so that you may be without sin. And if any man is a sinner, we have a friend and helper with the Father, Jesus Christ, the upright one:

² He is the offering for our sins; and not for ours only, but for all the world.

⁷ In whom we have salvation through his blood, the forgiveness of our sins, through the wealth of his grace,

⁸ Which he gave us in full measure in all wisdom and care;

²⁰ And the law came in addition, to make wrongdoing worse; but where there was much sin, there was much more grace:

²¹ That, as sin had power in death, so grace might have power through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

⁵ You are good, O Lord, and full of forgiveness; your mercy is great to all who make their cry to you.

⁹ And their voices are sounding in a new song, saying, It is right for you to take the book and to make it open: for you were put to death and have made an offering to God of your blood for men of every tribe, and language, and people, and nation,

³⁵ So do not give up your hope which will be greatly rewarded.

⁵ For there is one God and one peacemaker between God and men, the man Christ Jesus,

⁶ Who gave himself as an offering for all; witness of which was to be given at the right time;

²⁴ For our salvation is by hope: but hope which is seen is not hope: for who is hoping for what he sees?

¹² But I will still have among you a quiet and poor people, and they will put their faith in the name of the Lord.

⁷ Let the sinner give up his way, and the evil-doer his purpose: and let him come back to the Lord, and he will have mercy on him; and to our God, for there is full forgiveness with him.

¹ <A Song of the going up. Of David.> Lord, there is no pride in my heart and my eyes are not lifted up; and I have not taken part in great undertakings, or in things over-hard for me.

⁴ But there is forgiveness with you, so that you may be feared.

⁹ O Israel, have faith in the Lord: he is their help and their breastplate.

¹⁰ O house of Aaron, have faith in the Lord: he is their help and their breastplate.

¹¹ You worshippers of the Lord, have faith in the Lord: he is their help and their breastplate.

¹² The Lord has kept us in mind and will give us his blessing; he will send blessings on the house of Israel and on the house of Aaron.

¹³ He will send blessings on the worshippers of the Lord, on the small and on the great.

¹⁵ But you, O Lord, are a God full of pity and forgiveness, slow to get angry, great in mercy and wisdom.

⁵ For you are my hope, O Lord God; I have had faith in you from the time when I was young.

³ And he put a new song in my mouth, even praise to our God; numbers have seen it with fear, and put their faith in the Lord.
