⁹⁴ I am yours. Save me, for I have sought your precepts.

⁴ Come up to me, and help me, and let us strike Gibeon; for it has made peace with Joshua and with the children of Israel.

⁵ Therefore the five kings of the Amorites, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, the king of Eglon, gathered themselves together, and went up, they and all their hosts, and encamped against Gibeon, and made war against it.

⁶ The men of Gibeon sent to Joshua to the camp to Gilgal, saying, Don't slack your hand from your servants; come up to us quickly, and save us, and help us: for all the kings of the Amorites that dwell in the hill-country are gathered together against us.

¹⁷ Yahweh, your God, is in the midst of you, a mighty one who will save. He will rejoice over you with joy. He will rest in his love. He will rejoice over you with singing.

⁸ But now, Yahweh, you are our Father; we are the clay, and you our potter; and we all are the work of your hand.

⁹ Don't be angry very sore, Yahweh, neither remember iniquity forever: see, look, we beg you, we are all your people.

¹⁰ Your holy cities are become a wilderness, Zion is become a wilderness, Jerusalem a desolation.

⁵ One shall say, I am Yahweh's; and another shall call [himself] by the name of Jacob; and another shall subscribe with his hand to Yahweh, and surname [himself] by the name of Israel.

² Thus says Yahweh who made you, and formed you from the womb, who will help you: Don't be afraid, Jacob my servant; and you, Jeshurun, whom I have chosen.

⁸ But you, Israel, my servant, Jacob whom I have chosen, the seed of Abraham my friend,

⁹ you whom I have taken hold of from the ends of the earth, and called from the corners of it, and said to you, You are my servant, I have chosen you and not cast you away;

¹⁰ Don't you be afraid, for I am with you; don't be dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you; yes, I will help you; yes, I will uphold you with the right hand of my righteousness.

¹⁷³ Let your hand be ready to help me, For I have chosen your precepts.

⁴⁰ Behold, I long for your precepts! Revive me in your righteousness.

²⁷ Let me understand the teaching of your precepts! Then I will meditate on your wondrous works.

² Preserve my soul, for I am godly. You, my God, save your servant who trusts in you.

²³ For there stood by me this night an angel, belonging to the God whose I am and whom I serve,

²⁴ saying, 'Don't be afraid, Paul. You must stand before Caesar. Behold, God has granted you all those who sail with you.'
