For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD , thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.

Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.

Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old.

The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; And saveth such as be of a contrite spirit.

For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for?

For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.

For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,

What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?

But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it .

There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
