The work

“The steadfast of mind You will keep in perfect peace,
Because he trusts in You.

“If only you had paid attention to My commandments!
Then your

well-being would have been like a river,

And your righteousness like the waves of the sea.

“All your sons will be taught of the Lord;
And the well-being of your sons will be great.

“For you will go out with joy
And be led forth with peace;
The mountains and the hills will break forth into shouts of joy before you,
And all the trees of the field will clap their hands.

Creating the

praise of the lips.

Peace, peace to him who is far and to him who is near,”

Says the Lord, “and I will heal him.”

For thus says the Lord, “Behold, I extend peace to her like a river,
And the glory of the nations like an overflowing stream;
And you will be nursed, you will be carried on the hip and fondled on the knees.

May he judge Your people with righteousness

And

Your afflicted with justice.

I will hear what God the Lord will say;

For He will speak peace to His people, to His godly ones;
But let them not turn back to folly.

Those who love Your law have great peace,
And

nothing causes them to stumble.

for the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.

Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.

But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, reasonable, full of mercy and good fruits, unwavering, without hypocrisy.

Quietness

And many peoples will come and say,
“Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord,
To the house of the God of Jacob;
That He may teach us concerning His ways
And that we may walk in His paths.”
For the law will go forth from Zion
And the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.

There will be no end to the increase of His government or of peace,
On the throne of David and over his kingdom,
To establish it and to uphold it with justice and righteousness
From then on and forevermore.

The zeal of the Lord of hosts will accomplish this.

And the wolf will dwell with the lamb,
And the leopard will lie down with the young goat,
And the calf and the young lion and the fatling together;
And a little boy will lead them.

For he will never be shaken;
The righteous will be remembered forever.

In the

fear of the Lord there is strong confidence,

And his children will have refuge.

Say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord God, “Behold, I will take the sons of Israel from among the nations where they have gone, and I will gather them from every side and bring them into their own land;

I will not hide My face from them any longer, for I will have poured out My Spirit on the house of Israel,” declares the Lord God.

And He will judge between many peoples
And render decisions for mighty, distant nations.
Then they will hammer their swords into plowshares
And their spears into pruning hooks;
Nation will not lift up sword against nation,
And never again will they train for war.

For our proud confidence is this: the testimony of our conscience, that in holiness and godly sincerity, not in fleshly wisdom but in the grace of God, we have conducted ourselves in the world, and especially toward you.

And we desire that each one of you show the same diligence so as to realize the full assurance of hope until the end,

Therefore, brethren, be all the more diligent to make certain about His calling and choosing you; for as long as you practice these things, you will never stumble;

Little children, let us not love with word or with tongue, but in deed and truth.

By this, love is perfected with us, so that we may have confidence in the day of judgment; because as He is, so also are we in this world.
