YODH
You made me, you created me. Now give me the sense to follow your commands.
May all who fear you find in me a cause for joy,
for I have put my hope in your word.
I know, O LORD, that your regulations are fair;
you disciplined me because I needed it.
Now let your unfailing love comfort me,
just as you promised me, your servant.
Surround me with your tender mercies so I may live,
for your instructions are my delight.
Bring disgrace upon the arrogant people who lied about me;
meanwhile, I will concentrate on your commandments.
Let me be united with all who fear you,
with those who know your laws.
May I be blameless in keeping your decrees;
then I will never be ashamed.
Now let your unfailing love comfort me, just as you promised me, your servant.
Psalm 6:4
Return, O LORD, and rescue me.
Save me because of your unfailing love. (see all Psalm 6)
Psalm 119:41
LORD, give me your unfailing love,
the salvation that you promised me. (see Psalm 119:41-48)
Psalm 119:52
I meditate on your age-old regulations;
O LORD, they comfort me. (see Psalm 119:49-56)
Psalm 86:17
Send me a sign of your favor.
Then those who hate me will be put to shame,
for you, O LORD, help and comfort me. (see all Psalm 86)
Isaiah 51:3
The LORD will comfort Israel again
and have pity on her ruins.
Her desert will blossom like Eden,
her barren wilderness like the garden of the LORD.
Joy and gladness will be found there.
Songs of thanksgiving will fill the air.
Isaiah 51:12
"I, yes I, am the one who comforts you.
So why are you afraid of mere humans,
who wither like the grass and disappear?" (see all Isaiah 51)
