1 As the deer longs for the water brooks, ♦︎
so longs my soul for you, O God.
2 My soul is athirst for God, even for the living God; ♦︎
when shall I come before the presence of God?
3 My tears have been my bread day and night, ♦︎
while all day long they say to me, Where is now your God?
4 Now when I think on these things, I pour out my soul: ♦︎
how I went with the multitude
and led the procession to the house of God,
5 With the voice of praise and thanksgiving, ♦︎
among those who kept holy day.
6 Why are you so full of heaviness, O my soul, ♦︎
and why are you so disquieted within me?
7 O put your trust in God; ♦︎
for I will yet give him thanks,
who is the help of my countenance, and my God.
8 My soul is heavy within me; ♦︎
therefore I will remember you from the land of Jordan,
and from Hermon and the hill of Mizar.
9 Deep calls to deep in the thunder of your waterfalls; ♦︎
all your breakers and waves have gone over me.
10 The Lord will grant his loving-kindness in the daytime; ♦︎
through the night his song will be with me,
a prayer to the God of my life.
11 I say to God my rock,
Why have you forgotten me, ♦︎
and why go I so heavily, while the enemy oppresses me?
12 As they crush my bones, my enemies mock me; ♦︎
while all day long they say to me, Where is now your God?
13 Why are you so full of heaviness, O my soul, ♦︎
and why are you so disquieted within me?
14 O put your trust in God; ♦︎
for I will yet give him thanks,
who is the help of my countenance, and my God.
1 Give judgement for me, O God,
and defend my cause against an ungodly people; ♦︎
deliver me from the deceitful and the wicked.
2 For you are the God of my refuge;
why have you cast me from you, ♦︎
and why go I so heavily, while the enemy oppresses me?
3 O send out your light and your truth, that they may lead me, ♦︎
and bring me to your holy hill and to your dwelling,
4 That I may go to the altar of God,
to the God of my joy and gladness; ♦︎
and on the lyre I will give thanks to you, O God my God.
5 Why are you so full of heaviness, O my soul, ♦︎
and why are you so disquieted within me?
6 O put your trust in God; ♦︎
for I will yet give him thanks,
who is the help of my countenance, and my God.

3 The integrity of the upright guides them,
but the crookedness of the treacherous destroys them.
4 Riches do not profit in the day of wrath,
but righteousness delivers from death.
5 The righteousness of the blameless keeps their ways straight,
but the wicked fall by their own wickedness.
6 The righteousness of the upright saves them,
but the treacherous are taken captive by their schemes.
7 When the wicked die, their hope perishes,
and the expectation of the godless comes to nothing.
8 The righteous are delivered from trouble,
and the wicked get into it instead.
9 With their mouths the godless would destroy their neighbours,
but by knowledge the righteous are delivered.
10 When it goes well with the righteous, the city rejoices;
and when the wicked perish, there is jubilation.
11 By the blessing of the upright a city is exalted,
but it is overthrown by the mouth of the wicked.
12 Whoever belittles another lacks sense,
but an intelligent person remains silent.
13 A gossip goes about telling secrets,
but one who is trustworthy in spirit keeps a confidence.

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.*
