Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name, you are mine. When you pass through the waters I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you, when you walk through fire you shall not be burned, and the flame shall not consume you.

Tell the righteous it will be well with them, for they will enjoy the fruit of their deeds.

With joy you will draw water from the wells of salvation.

Surely the arm of the LORD is not too short to save, nor his ear too dull to hear.

Stop trusting in man, who has but a breath in his nostrils.

In the desert prepare the way for the LORD; make straight in the wilderness a highway for our God. Every valley shall be raised up, every mountain and hill made low; the rough ground shall become level, the rugged places a plain. And the glory of the LORD will be revealed, and all mankind together will see it. For the mouth of the LORD has spoken.

Prepare ye the way of the Lord.
