Oh, how abundant is your goodness, which you have stored up for those who fear you.

From of old no one has heard or perceived by the ear, no eye has seen a God besides you, who acts for those who wait for him.—“What no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man imagined, what God has prepared for those who love him”—these things God has revealed to us through the Spirit.—You make known to me the path of life; in your presence there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore.

How precious is your steadfast love, O God! The children of mankind take refuge in the shadow of your wings. They feast on the abundance of your house, and you give them drink from the river of your delights. For with you is the fountain of life; in your light do we see light.

Godliness is of value in every way, as it holds promise for the present life and also for the life to come.

“The Son of God… has eyes like a flame of fire.”

The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately sick; who can understand it? “I the Lord search the heart and test the mind, to give every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his deeds.”—You have set our iniquities before you, our secret sins in the light of your presence.—And the Lord turned and looked at Peter…. And he went out and wept bitterly.

But Jesus on his part did not entrust himself to them, because he knew all people and needed no one to bear witness about man, for he himself knew what was in man.—For he knows our frame; he remembers that we are dust.—A bruised reed he will not break, and a faintly burning wick he will not quench.—“The Lord knows those who are his.”—“I am the good shepherd. I know my own…. My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal life, and they will never perish, and no one will snatch them out of my hand.”
