Esperar no Senhor

5 I hope for the Lord, my soul doth hope, and for his word do I wait.

6 My soul waiteth for the Lord, more than they that watch for the morning expect the morning.

1 To the chief musician, a psalm of David.(40:2) I had waited patiently for the Lord, when he inclined himself unto me, and heard my cry.

2 (40:3) And he brought me up out of the noiseful deep, out of the miry clay, and he set up my feet upon a rock, making firm my steps.

3 (40:4) And he placed in my mouth a new song, a praise unto our God: many will see it, and fear; and they will trust in the Lord.

4 (40:5) Happy is the man that maketh the Lord his trust, and turneth not unto the proud, nor such as stray aside unto lies.

5 (40:6) Many things hast thou done, O Lord my God; thy wonderful deeds and thy thoughts toward usthere is none to be compared unto theewill I tell and speak of, though they are too numerous to be counted.

6 (40:7) Sacrifice and meatoffering thou desirest notears hast thou hollowed out unto meburntoffering and sinoffering thou demandest not.

7 (40:8) Then said I, Lo, I come: in the roll of the book it is written down for me;

8 (40:9) To fulfill thy will, O my God, do I desire; and thy law is within my heart.

9 (40:10) I announce thy righteousness in the great assembly: lo, I will not refrain my lips, O Lord, thou well knowest it.

10 (40:11) Thy righteousness have I never hidden within my heart; thy faithfulness and thy salvation have I spoken of openly: I have not concealed thy kindness and thy truth before the great assembly.

11 (40:12) Do thou, O Lord, not withhold thy mercies from me: let thy kindness and thy truth continually watch over me.

12 (40:13) For evils without number have compassed me about; my iniquities have overtaken me, so that I am not able to see: they are more numerous than the hairs of my head; and my courage hath forsaken me.

13 (40:14) Be pleased, O Lord, to deliver me; O Lord, hasten to my help.

14 (40:15) May those be made ashamed and put to the blush together that seek after my soul to take her away: let them be driven backward and be confounded, that wish for my mishap.

20 Our soul waiteth for the Lord: our help and our shield is he.

21 For in him shall our heart rejoice: because in his holy name have we trusted.

22 Let thy kindness, O Lord, be upon us, even as we hope in thee.

5 (62:6) Yea, in God hope in silence, my soul; for from him is my expectation.

5 Trust in the Lord with all thy heart: and upon thy own understanding do not rely.

6 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he will make level thy paths.

18 And therefore will the Lord wait, to be gracious unto you, and therefore will he exalt himself, to have mercy upon you; for a God of justice is the Lord: happy are all those that wait for him.

31 Yet they that wait upon the Lord shall acquire new strength, they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk, and not become faint.

1 Of David. The Lord is my light and my salvation; of whom shall I be afraid? the Lord is the fortress of my life; of whom shall I have dread?

2 When evildoers come near against me to eat up my flesh, my assailants and my enemies at me: then do they stumble and fall.

3 If an army should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: if war should arise against me, even then will I have trust.

4 One thing have I asked of the Lord, that I will seek for: that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to behold the loveliness of the Lord, and to be every morning early in his temple.

5 For he will hide me in his pavilion on the day of evil; he will conceal me in the secret of his tabernacle; upon a rock will he place me high.

6 And now will my head be lifted up above my enemies all round about me; and I will sacrifice in his tabernacle sacrifices of joy: I will sing, and I will triumphantly play unto the Lord.

7 Hear, O Lord, my voice, when I call, and be gracious unto me, and answer me.

8 Of thee, said my heart, "Seek ye my presence": thy presence, Lord, will I seek.

9 Hide then not thy face from me; reject not in anger thy servant, thou who hast been my help: cast me not off, nor forsake me, O God of my salvation.

10 For my father and my mother have forsaken me; but the Lord will take me up.

11 Point me out thy way, O Lord! and guide me on a level path, because of those that regard me enviously.

12 Give me not up to the revengeful desire of my assailants; for there are risen up against me false witnesses, and such as utter violence.

13 Unless I had believed to see the goodness of the Lord in the land of life

14 Wait on the Lord; be strong, and let thy heart be of good courage; and only wait on the Lord.

13 Unless I had believed to see the goodness of the Lord in the land of life

14 Wait on the Lord; be strong, and let thy heart be of good courage; and only wait on the Lord.

14 Wait on the Lord; be strong, and let thy heart be of good courage; and only wait on the Lord.

34 Wait on the Lord, and keep his way, and he will exalt thee to inherit the land: when the wicked are cut off, shalt thou look on.
