hope
For in You, O Lord, I hope;You will hear, O Lord my God.
And take not the word of truth utterly out of my mouth,For I have hoped in Your ordinances.
Let not those who wait for You, O Lord GOD of hosts, be ashamed because of me;Let not those who seek You be confounded because of me, O God of Israel.
That they may set their hope in God,And not forget the works of God,But keep His commandments;
Uphold me according to Your word, that I may live;And do not let me be ashamed of my hope.
A horse is a vain hope for safety;Neither shall it deliver any by its great strength.
The desire of the righteous is only good,But the expectation of the wicked is wrath.
The hope of the righteous will be gladness,But the expectation of the wicked will perish.
When a wicked man dies, his expectation will perish,And the hope of the unjust perishes.
The wicked is banished in his wickedness,But the righteous has a refuge in his death.
