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

¹⁴ The Lord is the support of all who are crushed, and the lifter up of all who are bent down.

¹⁶ For an upright man, after falling seven times, will get up again: but trouble is the downfall of the evil.

²⁷ My sheep give ear to my voice, and I have knowledge of them, and they come after me:

²⁸ And I give them eternal life; they will never come to destruction, and no one will ever take them out of my hand.

²⁹ That which my Father has given to me has more value than all; and no one is able to take anything out of the Father's hand.

³⁰ I and my Father are one.

³¹ Simon, Simon, Satan has made a request to have you, so that he may put you to the test as grain is tested:

³² But I have made prayer for you, that your faith may not go from you: and when you are turned again, make your brothers strong.

¹⁸ If I say, My foot is slipping; your mercy, O Lord, is my support.

⁷ But as for me, I am looking to the Lord; I am waiting for the God of my salvation: the ears of my God will be open to me.

⁸ Do not be glad because of my sorrow, O my hater: after my fall I will be lifted up; when I am seated in the dark, the Lord will be a light to me.

¹⁷ For the arms of the evil-doers will be broken: but the Lord is the support of the good.

³⁴ And Simeon gave them his blessing and said to Mary, his mother, See, this child will be the cause of the downfall and the lifting up of great numbers of people in Israel, and he will be a sign against which hard words will be said;

² He took me up out of a deep waste place, out of the soft and sticky earth; he put my feet on a rock, and made my steps certain.

¹⁹ Great are the troubles of the upright: but the Lord takes him safely out of them all.

²⁰ He keeps all his bones: not one of them is broken.

⁶ The Lord gives help to the poor in spirit; but he sends sinners down in shame.

¹² In their hands they will keep you up, so that your foot may not be crushed against a stone.

⁶⁰ And Peter said, Man, I have no knowledge of these things of which you are talking. And straight away, while he was saying these words, there came the cry of a cock.

⁶¹ And the Lord, turning, gave Peter a look. And the words of the Lord came to Peter's mind, how he had said, This night, before the hour of the cock's cry, you will be false to me three times.

⁶² And he went out, weeping bitterly.
