I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.
My help cometh from the Lord, which made heaven and earth.
He will not suffer thy foot to be moved; He that keepeth thee will not slumber.
Behold, He that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.
The Lord is thy keeper; the Lord is thy shade upon thy right hand.
The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.
The Lord shall preserve thee from all evil; He shall preserve thy soul.
The Lord shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in, from this time forth, and even for evermore.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost;
As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

This is the generation of them that seek Him, that seek Thy face, O Jacob.

Christ our Passover is sacrificed for us; therefore let us keep the feast,
Not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.
Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death hath no more dominion over Him.
For in that He died, He died unto sin once; but in that He liveth, He liveth unto God.
Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the first fruits of them that slept.
For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead.
For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.

Verse 1
Lord, let me know mine end, and the number of my days, that I may be certified how long I have to live.
Behold, Thou hast made my days as it were a span long, and mine age is even as nothing in respect of Thee, and verily every man living is altogether vanity.
For man walketh in a vain shadow, and disquieteth himself in vain; he heapeth up riches, and cannot tell who shall gather them.
And now, Lord, what is my hope? Truly my hope is even in Thee.
Deliver me from all mine offences, and make me not a rebuke unto the foolish.
When Thou with rebukes dost chasten man for sin, Thou makest his beauty to consume away, like as it were a moth fretting a garment; every man therefore is but vanity.
Hear my prayer, O Lord, and with Thine ears consider my calling; hold not Thy peace at my tears.
For I am a stranger with Thee, and a sojourner, as all my fathers were.
O spare me a little, that I may recover my strength, before I go hence and be no more seen.

Lord, Thou hast been our dwelling place in all generations.
Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever Thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting Thou art God.
Thou turnest man to destruction, and sayest, Return ye children of men.
For a thousand years in Thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night.
Thou carriest them away as with a flood; they are as a sleep; in the morning they are like grass which groweth up.
In the morning it flourisheth and groweth up; in the evening it is cut down and withereth.
For we are consumed by Thine anger, and by Thy wrath are we troubled.
Thou hast set our iniquities before Thee, our secret sins in the light of Thy countenance.
For all our days are passed away in Thy wrath; we spend our years as a tale that is told.
The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labor and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away.
Who knoweth the power of Thine anger? even according to Thy fear so is Thy wrath.
So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.
Return, O Lord, how long? and let it repent Thee concerning Thy servants.
O satisfy us early with Thy mercy, that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.
Make us glad according to the days wherein Thou hast afflicted us, and the years wherein we have seen evil.
Let Thy work appear unto Thy servants, and Thy glory unto their children.
And let the beauty of the Lord our God be upon us, and establish Thou the work of our hands upon us; yea, the work of our hands establish Thou it.

That we, being delivered out of the hand of our enemies, might serve Him without fear,
In holiness and righteousness before Him, all the days of our life.
And thou child shalt be called the prophet of the Highest, for thou shalt go before the face of the Lord to prepare His ways;
To give knowledge of salvation unto His people, for the remission of their sins,

Then the earth shook and trembled; the foundations also of the hills moved and were shaken, because he was wroth.
