19 Be not far from me, O Lord; ♦︎
you are my strength; hasten to help me.
20 Deliver my soul from the sword, ♦︎
my poor life from the power of the dog.
21 Save me from the lions mouth,
from the horns of wild oxen. ♦︎
You have answered me!
22 I will tell of your name to my people; ♦︎
in the midst of the congregation will I praise you.
23 Praise the Lord, you that fear him; ♦︎
O seed of Jacob, glorify him;
stand in awe of him, O seed of Israel.
24 For he has not despised nor abhorred the suffering of the poor;
neither has he hidden his face from them; ♦︎
but when they cried to him he heard them.
25 From you comes my praise in the great congregation; ♦︎
I will perform my vows
in the presence of those that fear you.
26 The poor shall eat and be satisfied; ♦︎
those who seek the Lord shall praise him;
their hearts shall live for ever.
27 All the ends of the earth
shall remember and turn to the Lord, ♦︎
and all the families of the nations shall bow before him.
28 For the kingdom is the Lords ♦︎
and he rules over the nations.

59See, the Lords hand is not too short to save,
nor his ear too dull to hear.
2 Rather, your iniquities have been barriers
between you and your God,
and your sins have hidden his face from you
so that he does not hear.
3 For your hands are defiled with blood,
and your fingers with iniquity;
your lips have spoken lies,
your tongue mutters wickedness.
4 No one brings suit justly,
no one goes to law honestly;
they rely on empty pleas, they speak lies,
conceiving mischief and begetting iniquity.
5 They hatch adders eggs,
and weave the spiders web;
whoever eats their eggs dies,
and the crushed egg hatches out a viper.
6 Their webs cannot serve as clothing;
they cannot cover themselves with what they make.
Their works are works of iniquity,
and deeds of violence are in their hands.
7 Their feet run to evil,
and they rush to shed innocent blood;
their thoughts are thoughts of iniquity,
desolation and destruction are in their highways.
8 The way of peace they do not know,
and there is no justice in their paths.
Their roads they have made crooked;
no one who walks in them knows peace.

27 As Jesus went on from there, two blind men followed him, crying loudly, Have mercy on us, Son of David! 28When he entered the house, the blind men came to him; and Jesus said to them, Do you believe that I am able to do this? They said to him, Yes, Lord. 29Then he touched their eyes and said, According to your faith let it be done to you. 30And their eyes were opened. Then Jesus sternly ordered them, See that no one knows of this. 31But they went away and spread the news about him throughout that district.
32 After they had gone away, a demoniac who was mute was brought to him.
33And when the demon had been cast out, the one who had been mute spoke; and the crowds were amazed and said, Never has anything like this been seen in Israel.
34But the Pharisees said, By the ruler of the demons he casts out the demons.*
