³ In the day that I called, you answered me. You encouraged me with strength in my soul.

⁶ In my distress I called on Yahweh, And cried to my God. He heard my voice out of his temple, My cry before him came into his ears.

¹³ I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me.

¹⁶ that he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, that you may be strengthened with power through his Spirit in the inward man;

¹¹ strengthened with all power, according to the might of his glory, for all endurance and perseverance with joy;

⁸ Concerning this thing, I begged the Lord three times that it might depart from me.

⁹ He has said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Most gladly therefore I will rather glory in my weaknesses, that the power of Christ may rest on me.

¹⁰ Therefore I take pleasure in weaknesses, in injuries, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ's sake. For when I am weak, then am I strong.

¹² I will strengthen them in Yahweh; And they will walk up and down in his name," says Yahweh.

¹⁰ But may the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a little while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you.

¹⁰ Finally, be strong in the Lord, and in the strength of his might.

²⁴ It shall happen that, before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear.

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.

²⁹ He gives power to the faint; and to him who has no might he increases strength.

³⁰ Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall:

³¹ but those who wait for Yahweh shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; they shall walk, and not faint.

² Behold, God is my salvation. I will trust, and will not be afraid; for Yah, Yahweh, is my strength and song; and he has become my salvation."

⁴ I sought Yahweh, and he answered me, And delivered me from all my fears.

⁵ They looked to him, and were radiant. Their faces shall never be covered with shame.

⁶ This poor man cried, and Yahweh heard him, And saved him out of all his troubles.

¹¹ Yahweh will give strength to his people. Yahweh will bless his people with peace.

⁷ Yahweh is my strength and my shield. My heart has trusted in him, and I am helped. Therefore my heart greatly rejoices. With my song I will thank him.

¹ > My cry goes to God! Indeed, I cry to God for help, And for him to listen to me.

² In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord. My hand was stretched out in the night, and didn't get tired. My soul refused to be comforted.

⁸ My soul stays close to you. Your right hand holds me up.

¹⁴ Wait for Yahweh. Be strong, and let your heart take courage. Yes, wait for Yahweh.
