Let all those who seek You rejoice and be glad in You: Let such as love Your salvation say continually, “The Lord be magnified!”

Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have. For He Himself has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.”

For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.

And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.

Cause me to hear Your lovingkindness in the morning. For in You do I trust: cause me to know the way in which I shall walk, for I lift up my soul to You, deliver me, O Lord, from mine enemies: in You I take shelter.

You in Your mercy have led forth the people whom You have redeemed; You have guided them in Your strength to Your holy habitation.

Surely every man walks about like a shadow; surely they busy themselves in vain; He heaps up riches and does not know who will gather them. And now, Lord, what do I wait for? My hope is in You. Deliver me from all my transgressions; Do not make me the reproach of the foolish.

Lord, make me to know my end, and what is the measure of my days, that I may know how frail I am. Indeed, You have made my days as handbreadths, and my age is as mothing before You; certainly every man at his best state is but a vapor.

“The poor and needy seek water, but there is none, their tongues fail for thirst. I, the Lord, will hear them; I, the God of Israel, will not forsake them. I will open rivers in desolate heights, and fountains in the midst of the valleys; I will make the wilderness a pool of water, And the dry land springs of water.

“Lord, now You are letting Your servant depart in peace, according to Your word: For my eyes have seen Your salvation which You have prepared before the face of all peoples, a light to bring revelation to the Gentiles, And the glory of Your people Israel.”
