¹⁹ To his worshippers, he will give their desire; their cry comes to his ears, and he gives them salvation.

⁷ If you are in me at all times, and my words are in you, then anything for which you make a request will be done for you.

⁴ So will your delight be in the Lord, and he will give you your heart's desires.

²⁹ The Lord is far from sinners, but his ear is open to the prayer of the upright.

¹⁵ And if we are certain that he gives ear to all our requests, we are equally certain that we will get our requests.

²⁴ Up to now you have made no request in my name: do so, and it will be answered, so that your hearts may be full of joy.

¹⁶ You did not take me for yourselves, but I took you for myself; and I gave you the work of going about and producing fruit which will be for ever; so that whatever request you make to the Father in my name he may give it to you.

⁶ Happy are those whose heart's desire is for righteousness: for they will have their desire.

¹⁵ When his cry comes up to me, I will give him an answer: I will be with him in trouble; I will make him free from danger and give him honour.

¹⁷ The cry of the upright comes before the Lord, and he takes them out of all their troubles.

⁴ May he give you your heart's desire, and put all your purposes into effect.

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

¹⁷ So that Christ may have his place in your hearts through faith; and that you, being rooted and based in love,

¹⁸ May have strength to see with all the saints how wide and long and high and deep it is,

¹⁹ And to have knowledge of the love of Christ which is outside all knowledge, so that you may be made complete as God himself is complete.

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,

⁵³ Those who had no food he made full of good things; the men of wealth he sent away with nothing in their hands;

¹⁹ They will not be shamed in the evil time, and in the days when all are in need of food they will have enough.

⁷ How good is your loving mercy, O God! the children of men take cover under the shade of your wings.

⁸ The delights of your house will be showered on them; you will give them drink from the river of your pleasures.

⁹ Keep yourselves in the fear of the Lord, all you his saints; for those who do so will have no need of anything.

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

⁴⁰ And the Lord will be their help, and keep them safe: he will take them out of the hands of the evil-doers, and be their saviour, because they had faith in him.
