² For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus set me free from the law of sin and of death.

¹⁴ For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. ¹⁵ For you did not receive a spirit of slavery again to fear, but you received a Spirit of adoption by which we cry, Abba! Father! ¹⁶ The Spirit Himself witnesses with our spirit that we are children of God.

³⁰ And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed to the day of redemption.

⁹ For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth,

⁹ For this cause also, from the day in which we heard, we do not cease praying on your behalf, and asking that you may be filled with the full knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding, ¹⁰ for you to walk worthily of the Lord to all pleasing, bearing fruit in every good work and growing into the full knowledge of God;

¹ For the rest, then brothers, we beg you and we exhort in the Lord Jesus, even as you received from us how you ought to walk and to please God, that you abound more. ² For you know what injunctions we gave you through the Lord Jesus.

⁷ For God did not give a spirit of cowardice to us, but of power and of love, and of self-control.

²¹ perfect you in every good work, in order to do His will, doing in you that which is pleasing in His sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen.

²⁷ And the anointing which you received from Him abides in you, and you have no need that anyone teach you. But as His anointing teaches you concerning all things, and is true, and is not a lie, and as He taught you, abide in Him.

⁷ But Jehovah is seated forever; He has established His throne for judgment. ⁸ And He shall judge the world in righteousness; He shall judge the peoples in uprightness.

¹¹ For Your name's sake, O Jehovah, even pardon my iniquity for it is great.

¹⁷ The straits of my heart are enlarged; O bring me out from my straits.

¹⁹ Many are the evils of the righteous, but Jehovah helps him out of them all,

⁴⁰ Behold, I have longed for Your precepts; grant to me life in Your righteousness.

⁸⁸ Give me life according to Your mercy, and I will keep the testimonies of Your mouth.

¹⁰⁷ I am greatly afflicted; O Jehovah, give me life according to Your word.

⁷ If I walk in the midst of distress, You give me life; You send out Your hand against the wrath of my enemies, and Your right hand delivers me.

¹ A Psalm of David. Hear my prayer, O Jehovah give ear to my supplications; answer me in Your faithfulness, in Your righteousness;

² Jehovah, I have heard Your report; I am afraid, Jehovah. Give new life to Your work in the midst of years, in the midst of years make known; in anger remember compassion.

⁴ But God, being rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, ⁵ even we being dead in sins, He made us alive together with Christ (by grace you are being saved),

¹⁴ And I said to him, Sir, you know. And he said to me, These are those coming out of the great tribulation; and they washed their robes and whitened them in the blood of the Lamb. ¹⁵ Because of this they are before the throne of God, and serve Him day and night in His sanctuary. And He sitting on the throne will spread His tabernacle over them. ¹⁶ And they will not hunger still, nor will they thirst still, nor at all shall fall on them the sun, nor any kind of heat. ¹⁷ Because the Lamb in the midst of the throne will shepherd them, and will lead them on the living fountains of waters; and God will wipe off every tear from their eyes.

¹² Jehovah shall judge between you and me, and Jehovah shall avenge me of you. But my hand shall not be on you. ¹³ As the proverb of the ancients says, Wickedness proceeds from the wicked. But my hand shall not be on you. ¹⁴ After whom has the king of Israel come out? After whom are you pursuing? After a dead dog? After a flea? ¹⁵ Yea, Jehovah shall be judge, and shall judge between you and me. Yea, He shall see and contend for my cause, and shall deliver me out of your hand.

²⁹ And if a man rises up to pursue you, and to seek your soul (and the soul of my lord has been bound up in the bundle of life with Jehovah your God). And the souls of your enemies, He shall sling them from the hollow of the sling.

¹⁰ And David said, As Jehovah lives, except Jehovah strike him, or his day shall come and he dies, or he goes down and is devoured in battle,

⁵ God will likewise break you forever; He shall take you away, even pluck you from your tent, and uproot you out of the land of the living. Selah.

⁵ He shall reward evil to my enemies; cut them off in Your truth.

²³ But You, O God, will bring them down to the pit of destruction; men of blood and deceit will not live out half their days; but I will trust in You.

¹⁶ O Jehovah, truly I am Your servant now; I am Your servant, the son of Your handmaid; You have loosed my bonds.

⁹⁴ I am Yours save me; for I have sought Your precepts.
