My son, hear the instruction of thy father, and forsake not the law of thy mother:

If Thou, Lord, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand?

The Lord is righteous: He hath cut asunder the cords of the wicked.

Blessed is every one that feareth the Lord; that walketh in His ways.

Except the Lord build the house, they labour in vain that build it: except the Lord keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain.

The Lord hath done great things for us; whereof we are glad.

Do good, O Lord, unto those that be good, and to them that are upright in their hearts.

Blessed be the Lord, Who hath not given us as a prey to their teeth.

Unto Thee lift I up mine eyes, O Thou that dwellest in the heavens.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee.
