Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.

Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves. Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others.

Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.

Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.

The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge; fools despise wisdom and instruction.

When I am afraid, I put my trust in you.

In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that[fn] they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.

Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you.

For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well.

Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever you had formed the earth and the world, from everlasting to everlasting you are God.

There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. For the law of the Spirit of life has set you free in Christ Jesus from the law of sin and death.

He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the LORD require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?

Keep your tongue from evil and your lips from speaking deceit.

The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above proclaims his handiwork.

So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.

In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.
