1But the souls of the just are in the hand of God, and the torment of death shall not touch them.

2In the sight of the unwise they seemed to die: and their departure was taken for misery:

3And their going away from us, for utter destruction: but they are in peace.

4And though in the sight of men they suffered torments, their hope is full of immortality.

5Afflicted in few things, in many they shall be well rewarded: because God hath tried them, and found them worthy of himself.

6As gold in the furnace, he hath proved them, and as a victim of a holocaust, he hath received them, and in time there shall be respect had to them.

7The just shall shine, and shall run to and fro like sparks among the reeds.

8They shall judge nations, and rule over people, and their Lord shall reign for ever.

9They that trust in him shall understand the truth: and they that are faithful in love, shall rest in him: for grace and peace are to his elect.

1A psalm for David. The Lord ruleth me: and I shall want nothing.

2He hath set me in a place of pasture. He hath brought me up, on the water of refreshment:

3He hath converted my soul. He hath led me on the paths of justice, for his own name's sake.

4For though I should walk in the midst of the shadow of death, I will fear no evils, for thou art with me. Thy rod and thy staff, they have comforted me.

5Thou hast prepared a table before me against them that afflict me. Thou hast anointed my head with oil; and my chalice which inebreateth me, how goodly is it!

6And thy mercy will follow me all the days of my life. And that I may dwell in the house of the Lord unto length of days.

3Know you not that all we who are baptized in Christ Jesus are baptized in his death?

4For we are buried together with him by baptism into death: that, as Christ is risen from the dead by the glory of the Father, so we also may walk in newness of life.

5For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection.

6Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin may be destroyed, to the end that we may serve sin no longer.

7For he that is dead is justified from sin.

8Now, if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall live also together with Christ.

9Knowing that Christ, rising again from the dead, dieth now no more. Death shall no more have dominion over him.

37All that the Father giveth to me shall come to me: and him that cometh to me, I will not cast out.

38Because I came down from heaven, not to do my own will but the will of him that sent me.

39Now this is the will of the Father who sent me: that of all that he hath given me, I should lose nothing; but should raise it up again in the last day.

40And this is the will of my Father that sent me: that every one who seeth the Son and believeth in him may have life everlasting. And I will raise him up in the last day.
