¹⁶ Let all those who are looking for you be glad and have joy in you; let the lovers of your salvation ever say, May the Lord be great.

²⁷ Let those who are on my side give cries of joy; let them ever say, The Lord be praised, for he has pleasure in the peace of his servant.

⁷ But those things which were profit to me, I gave up for Christ.

⁸ Yes truly, and I am ready to give up all things for the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, which is more than all: for whom I have undergone the loss of all things, and to me they are less than nothing, so that I may have Christ as my reward,

⁹ And be seen in him, not having my righteousness which is of the law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith:

¹⁷ And this came to the ears of all those, Jews and Greeks, who were living at Ephesus; and fear came on them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was made great.

⁴⁶ And Mary said: My soul gives glory to God;

⁴⁷ My spirit is glad in God my Saviour.

⁴⁵ Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a trader searching for beautiful jewels.

⁴⁶ And having come across one jewel of great price, he went and gave all he had in exchange for it.

¹³ For this cause says the Lord God, My servants will have food, but you will be in need of food: my servants will have drink, but you will be dry: my servants will have joy, but you will be shamed:

¹⁴ My servants will make songs in the joy of their hearts, but you will be crying for sorrow, and making sounds of grief from a broken spirit.

¹⁶⁶ Lord, my hope has been in your salvation; and I have kept your teachings.

¹⁶⁷ My soul has kept your unchanging word; great is my love for it.

¹²³ My eyes are wasted with desire for your salvation, and for the word of your righteousness.

¹¹¹ I have taken your unchanging word as an eternal heritage; for it is the joy of my heart.

⁸¹ <CAPH> My soul is wasted with desire for your salvation: but I have hope in your word.

³ Have glory in his holy name; let the hearts of those who are searching after the Lord be glad.

³ But let the upright be glad; let them have delight before God; let them be full of joy.

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.
