If you search for good, you will find favor;
but if you search for evil, it will find you!
Those who live in the shelter of the Most High
will find rest in the shadow of the Almighty.
I look up to the mountains —
does my help come from there?
My help comes from the Lord,
who made heaven and earth!
And anyone who believes in God’s Son has eternal life. Anyone who doesn’t obey the Son will never experience eternal life but remains under God’s angry judgment.
Then Jesus said, “Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest.”
Is anything too hard for the Lord? I will return about this time next year, and Sarah will have a son.”
And Abram believed the Lord, and the Lord counted him as righteous because of his faith.
Have you never heard?
Have you never understood?
The Lord is the everlasting God,
the Creator of all the earth.
He never grows weak or weary.
No one can measure the depths of his understanding.
Unless the Lord builds a house,
the work of the builders is wasted.
Unless the Lord protects a city,
guarding it with sentries will do no good.
And now the prize awaits me — the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give me on the day of his return. And the prize is not just for me but for all who eagerly look forward to his appearing.
