  34. I Samuel 2:1My heart rejoiceth in the LORD, mine horn is exalted in the LORD: my mouth is enlarged over mine enemies; because I rejoice in [T]hy salvation.  2There is none holy as the LORD: for there is none beside [T]hee: neither is there any rock like [my] God.  3[I will] [t]alk no more so exceeding proudly; [I will] let not arroganc[e] come out of [my] mouth: for the LORD is a God of knowledge, and by [H]im actions are weighed.  4The bows of the mighty men are broken, and they that stumbled are girded with strength.  5They that were full have hired out themselves for bread; and they that were hungry ceased: so that the barren hath born seven; and she that hath many children is waxed feeble.  6The LORD killeth, and maketh alive: [H]e bringeth down to the grave, and bringeth up.  7The LORD maketh poor, and maketh rich: [H]e bringeth low, and lifteth up.  8He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth up the beggar from the dunghill, to set them among princes, and to make them inherit the throne of glory: for the pillars of the earth are the LORD’s, and [H]e hath set the world upon them.  9He will keep the feet of [H]is saints, and the wicked shall be silent in darkness; for by strength shall no man prevail.  10The adversaries of the LORD shall be broken to pieces; out of heaven shall [H]e thunder upon them: the LORD shall judge the ends of the earth; and [H]e shall give strength unto [H]is [people], and exalt the horn of [H]is anointed.
  35. Psalm 71:5[T]hou art my hope, O Lord GOD: [T]hou art my trust from my youth.  6By [T]hee have I been holden up from the womb: [T]hou art [H]e that took me out of my mother’s bowels: my praise shall be continually of [T]hee….  7[T]hou art my strong refuge.  8Let my mouth be filled with [T]hy praise and with [T]hy honour all the day.
  36. Psalm 118:21I will praise [T]hee: for [T]hou hast heard me, and art become my salvation.  22The stone which the builders refused is become the head stone of the corner.  23This is the LORD’s doing; it is marvelous in [my] eyes.  24This is the day which the LORD hath made; [I] will rejoice and be glad in it.

  39. Psalm 30:10Hear, O LORD, and have mercy upon me: LORD, be [T]hou my helper.  11Thou hast turned for me my mourning into dancing: [T]hou hast put off my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness …

  42. Psalm 118:5I called upon the LORD in distress: the LORD answered me, and set me in a large place.  6The LORD is on my side; I will not fear: what can man do unto me?  7The LORD taketh my part with them that help me: therefore shall I see my desire upon them that hate me.  8It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man.  9It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in princes.  10[My enemies] … compassed me about: but in the name of the LORD will I destroy them.  11They compassed me about; yea, they compassed me about: but in the name of the LORD I will destroy them.  12They compassed me about like bees: they are quenched as the fire of thorns: for in the name of the LORD I will destroy them.  13Thou hast thrust sore at me that I might fall: but the LORD helped me.  14The LORD is my strength and song, and is become my salvation.  15The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tabernacles of the righteous: the right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly.  16The right hand of the LORD is exalted: the right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly.  17I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the LORD.  18The LORD hath chastened me sore: but [H]e hath not given me over unto death.  19Open to me the gates of righteousness: I will go into them, and I will praise the LORD: 20[t]his gate of the LORD, into which the righteous shall enter.
  43. Lamentations 3:21This I recall to my mind, therefore have I hope.  22It is of the LORD’s mercies that [I am] not consumed, because [H]is compassions fail not.  23They are new every morning: great is [T]hy faithfulness.  24The LORD is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in [H]im.  25The LORD is good unto them that wait for [H]im, to the soul that seeketh [H]im.
  44. Revelation 1:5Jesus Christ … is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth.  Unto him that loved [me], and washed [me] from [my] sins in his own blood, 6[a]nd hath made … kings and priests unto God … his Father; to him be glory and dominion forever and ever.  Amen.
