1 Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good,
for his loving kindness endures forever.
24 ‘The LORD bless you, and keep you.
25 The LORD make his face to shine on you,
and be gracious to you.
26 The LORD lift up his face towards you,
and give you peace.’
2 Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be healthy, even as your soul prospers.
31 Grey hair is a crown of glory.
It is attained by a life of righteousness.
31 but those who wait for the LORD will renew their strength.
They will mount up with wings like eagles.
They will run, and not be weary.
They will walk, and not faint.
7 The LORD is my strength and my shield.
My heart has trusted in him, and I am helped.
Therefore my heart greatly rejoices.
With my song I will thank him.
7 You have put gladness in my heart,
more than when their grain and their new wine are increased.
12 So teach us to count our days,
that we may gain a heart of wisdom.
10 "Now, behold, the LORD has kept me alive, as he spoke, these forty-five years, from the time that the LORD spoke this word to Moses, while Israel walked in the wilderness. Now, behold, I am eighty-five years old, today. 11 As yet I am as strong today as I was in the day that Moses sent me. As my strength was then, even so is my strength now for war, to go out and to come in.
24 This is the day that the LORD has made.
We will rejoice and be glad in it!
1 I will bless the LORD at all times.
His praise will always be in my mouth.
4 One thing I have asked of the LORD, that I will seek after:
that I may dwell in the LORD’s house all the days of my life,
to see the LORD’s beauty,
and to enquire in his temple.
11 You will show me the path of life.
In your presence is fullness of joy.
In your right hand there are pleasures forever more.
29 The glory of young men is their strength.
The splendour of old men is their grey hair.
