A time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn and a time to dance.

Rejoice with those who rejoice; mourn with those who mourn.

Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.

Those the LORD has rescued will return. They will enter Zion with singing; everlasting joy will crown their heads. Gladness and joy will overtake them, and sorrow and sighing will flee away.

He will make your righteous reward shine like the dawn, your vindication like the noonday sun.

Trust in him at all times, you people; pour out your hearts to him, for God is our refuge.

“I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”

So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

For God’s gifts and his call can never be withdrawn.

Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters,

And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.

Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.

See, I have engraved you on the palms of my hands; your walls are ever before me.

For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.

Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.

Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the LORD rises upon you.

Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.

Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong.

This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins.

We love because he first loved us.

Yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will be joyful in God my Savior.

Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.

Sing to the LORD, all the earth; proclaim his salvation day after day.

Sing to the LORD a new song; sing to the LORD, all the earth.

I will sing the LORD’s praise, for he has been good to me.

But I trust in your unfailing love; my heart rejoices in your salvation.

The LORD himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.

Surely your goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.

Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.

but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.
