21 When he had consulted with the people, he appointed those who sang to the Lord and those who praised Him in holy attire, as they went out before the army and said, "Give thanks to the Lord, for His faithfulness is everlasting." 22 When they began singing and praising, the Lord set ambushes against the sons of Ammon, Moab, and Mount Seir, who had come against Judah; so they were struck down.

20 Then Job got up, tore his robe, and shaved his head; then he fell to the ground and worshiped. 21 He said,

"Naked I came from my mother’s womb,

And naked I shall return there.

The Lord gave and the Lord has taken away.

Blessed be the name of the Lord."

4 Sing praise to the Lord, you His godly ones,

And praise the mention of His holiness.

5 For His anger is but for a moment,

His favor is for a lifetime;

Weeping may last for the night,

But a shout of joy comes in the morning.

Make His deeds known among the peoples.

4 And on that day you will say,

"Give thanks to the Lord, call on His name.

Make known His deeds among the peoples;

For You have given me wisdom and power;

Even now You have made known to me what we requested of You,

For You have made known to us the king’s matter."

12 saying with a loud voice,

"Worthy is the Lamb that was slaughtered to receive power, wealth, wisdom, might, honor, glory, and blessing."

13 And I heard every created thing which is in heaven, or on the earth, or under the earth, or on the sea, and all the things in them, saying,

"To Him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb be the blessing, the honor, the glory, and the dominion forever and ever."

7 and he said with a loud voice, "Fear God and give Him glory, because the hour of His judgment has come; worship Him who made the heaven and the earth, and sea and springs of waters."

5 And a voice came from the throne, saying,

"Give praise to our God, all you His bond-servants, you who fear Him, the small and the great."

5 And a voice came from the throne, saying,

"Give praise to our God, all you His bond-servants, you who fear Him, the small and the great."

11 For it is written:

"As I live, says the Lord, to Me every knee will bow,

And every tongue will*give praise to God."

8 Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is *lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, think about these things.

11 Serve the Lord with *reverence

And rejoice with trembling.

And with my song I shall thank Him.

23 "He who offers a sacrifice of thanksgiving honors Me;

And to him who sets his way properly

I will show the salvation of God."

4 In God, whose word I praise,

In God I have put my trust;

I shall not be afraid.

3 Because Your *favor is better than life,

My lips will praise You.

4 So I will bless You as long as I live;

I will lift up my hands in Your name.

1 There will be silence *before You, and praise in Zion, God,

And the vow will be fulfilled for You.

2 You who hear prayer,

To You all *mankind comes.

3 *Wrongdoings prevail against me;

As for our offenses, You *forgive them.

17 I cried to Him with my mouth,

And *He was exalted with my tongue.

20 Blessed be God,

Who has not turned away my prayer

Nor His favor from me.

3 But the righteous will be joyful; they will rejoice before God;

Yes, they will rejoice with gladness.

5 *He predestined us to adoption as sons and daughters through Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will, 6 to the praise of the glory of His grace, with which He favored us in the Beloved.

16 that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with power through His Spirit in the inner *self,

9 But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people forGod’s own possession, so that you may proclaim the excellencies of Him who has called you out of darkness into His marvelous light; 10 for you once were not a people, but now you are the people of God; you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.

4 "I call upon the Lord, who is worthy to be praised,

And I am saved from my enemies.

50 "Therefore I will *give thanks to You, Lord, among the nations,

And I will sing praises to Your name.

3 He shall say to them, ‘Hear, Israel, you are approaching the battle against your enemies today. Do not be fainthearted. Do not be afraid, or panic, or be terrified by them,

10 from the same mouth come both blessing and cursing. My brothers and sisters, these things should not be this way.

18 And I also say to you that you are *Peter, and upon this *rock I will build My church; and the gates of Hades will not overpower it.

3 Suffer hardship with me, as a good soldier of Christ Jesus.

4 No soldier in active service entangles himself in the affairs of everyday life, so that he may please the one who enlisted him.

12 Fight the good fight of faith; take hold of the eternal life to which you were called, and for which you made the good confession in the presence of many witnesses.

14 I have written to you, fathers, because you know Him who has been from the beginning. I have written to you, young men, because you are strong, and the word of God remains in you, and you have overcome the evil one.

3 Beloved, while I was making every effort to write you about our common salvation, I felt the necessity to write to you appealing that you contend earnestly for the faith that was once for all time handed down to the *saints.
