1A song of ascents.Blessed are all who fear the LORD,who walk in His ways!

6that you may seeyour children’s children.Peace be upon Israel!

10Because they have led My people astray, saying, ‘Peace,’ when there is no peace, and whitewashing any flimsy wall that is built,

16those prophets of Israel who prophesied to Jerusalem and saw a vision of peace for her when there was no peace, declares the Lord GOD.’

23therefore you will no longer see false visions or practice divination. I will deliver My people from your hands. Then you will know that I am the LORD."

7As a well gushes its water,so she pours out her evil.Violence and destruction resound in her;sickness and wounds are ever before Me.

14They dress the wound of My peoplewith very little care,saying, ‘Peace, peace,’when there is no peace at all.

16This is what the LORD says:"Stand at the crossroads and look.Ask for the ancient paths: ‘Where is the good way?’Then walk in it, and you will find rest for your souls.But they said, ‘We will not walk in it!’

13Bear with one another and forgive any complaint you may have against someone else. Forgive as the Lord forgave you.

15Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, for to this you were called as members of one body. And be thankful.

24because you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as your reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving.
