28 *Come to *me, all who labor and are *heavy laden, and I will give you rest.29 Take my yoke upon you, and *learn from me, for I am *gentle and lowly in heart, and *you will find rest for your souls.30 For *my yoke is easy, and my burden is light."

7 *Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him;

*fret not yourself over the one who *prospers in his way,

over the man who carries out evil devices!

10 *"Be still, and know that I am God.

*I will be exalted among the nations,

I will be exalted in the earth!"

8 *Trust in him at all times, O people;

*pour out your heart before him;

God is *a refuge for us. Selah

3 *You keep him in perfect peace

whose mind is stayed on you,

because he trusts in you.

15 For thus said the Lord God, the Holy One of Israel,

"In *returning* and *rest you shall be saved;

in quietness and in trust shall be your strength."

But you were unwilling,

17 *And the effect of righteousness will be peace,

and the result of righteousness, quietness and trust* forever.

31 but *they who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength;

they shall mount up with wings *like eagles;

they shall run and not be weary;

they shall walk and not faint.

7 And *the peace of God, *which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

7 *casting all your anxieties on him, because *he cares for you.

14 *Wait for the Lord;

*be strong, and let your heart take courage;

wait for the Lord!

1 I *waited patiently for the Lord;

he inclined to me and *heard my cry.

22 *Cast your burden on the Lord,

and he will sustain you;

*he will never permit

the righteous to be moved.

4 *Be angry,* and do not sin;

*ponder in your own hearts *on your beds, and be silent. Selah

25 The Lord is good to those who *wait for him,

to the soul who seeks him.

26 *It is good that one should wait quietly

for the salvation of the Lord.

11 *For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare* and not for evil, *to give you a future and a hope. 12 *Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, *and I will hear you. 13 *You will seek me and find me, when you seek me *with all your heart.

7 *"Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord,

*whose trust is the Lord.

8 *He is like a tree planted by water,

that sends out its roots by the stream,

and does not fear when heat comes,

for its leaves remain green,

and is not anxious in the year of drought,

for it does not cease to bear fruit."

14 And he said, *"My presence will go with you, and *I will give you rest."

12 *which is why I suffer as I do. But *I am not ashamed, for *I know whom I have believed, and I am convinced that he is able to guard until *that day *what has been entrusted to me.*

7 And he said to Judah, "Let us build these cities and surround them with *walls and towers, gates and bars. The land is still ours, because we have sought the Lord our God. We have sought him, *and he has given us peace on every side." So they built and prospered.

27 As they were going down to the outskirts of the city, Samuel said to Saul, "Tell the servant to pass on before us, and when he has passed on, stop here yourself for a while, that I may make known to you the word of God."
