² I will send up my cry to the Most High God; to God who does all things for me.

⁸ The Lord will make all things complete for me: O Lord, your mercy is eternal; do not give up the works of your hands.

⁶ For I am certain of this very thing, that he by whom the good work was started in you will make it complete till the day of Jesus Christ:

¹² Lord, you will give us peace: for all our works are the outcome of your purpose.

²¹ Make you full of every good work and ready to do all his desires, working in us whatever is pleasing in his eyes through Jesus Christ; and may the glory be given to him for ever and ever. So be it.

² My haters are ever ready to put an end to me; great numbers are lifting themselves up against me.

² O give praise to the God of gods: for his mercy is unchanging for ever.

³ O give praise to the Lord of lords: for his mercy is unchanging for ever.

¹⁵ For this is the word of him who is high and lifted up, whose resting-place is eternal, whose name is Holy: my resting-place is in the high and holy place, and with him who is crushed and poor in spirit, to give life to the spirit of the poor, and to make strong the heart of the crushed.

¹² So then, my loved ones, as you have at all times done what I say, not only when I am present, but now much more when I am not with you, give yourselves to working out your salvation with fear in your hearts;
