For the needy
shall not alway be forgotten:
the expectation
of the poor
shall not perish
for ever.
Therefore my heart
is glad,
and my glory rejoiceth:
my flesh
also shall rest
in hope.
Be of good courage,
and
he shall strengthen
your heart,
all
ye that hope
in the LORD.
Behold,
the eye
of the LORD
is upon them that fear him,
upon them
that hope
in his mercy;
Let thy mercy,
O LORD,
be upon us,
according as we
hope in thee.
For in thee,
O LORD,
do I hope:
thou wilt hear,
O Lord my God.
And now,
Lord,
what wait
I for?
my hope is in thee.
Why art
thou cast down,
O my soul?
and
why art
thou disquieted
within me?
hope in God:
for I
shall yet praise him,
who is the health
of my countenance,
and my God.
For thou art
my hope,
O Lord GOD:
thou art
my trust
from my youth.
That they
might set
their hope
in God,
and not forget
the works
of God,
but keep
his commandments:
They
that fear thee
will be glad
when they
see me;
because
I
have hoped in thy word.
My soul
fainteth for thy salvation:
but I
hope in thy word.
Uphold me
according
unto thy word,
that I
may live:
and let me
not be ashamed
of my hope.
LORD,
I have hoped
for thy salvation,
and done
thy commandments.
Let Israel
hope
in the LORD:
for with the LORD
there is mercy,
and with him is
plenteous redemption.
Happy is he that
hath the God
of Jacob
for his help,
whose hope
is in the LORD
his God:
The hope
of the righteous
shall be gladness:
but
the expectation
of the wicked
shall perish.
Hope
deferred
maketh the heart sick:
but
when the desire cometh,
it is a tree
of life.
The wicked
is driven away
in his wickedness:
but the righteous
hath
hope
in his death.
For surely there is an end;
and thine expectation
shall not be cut off.
So shall
the knowledge
of wisdom
be unto thy soul:
when
thou hast found it,
then there shall be
a reward,
and thy expectation
shall not be cut off.
For the grave
cannot praise thee,
death can not celebrate thee:
they
that go down
into the pit
cannot hope
for thy truth.
Blessed is the man
that trusteth in the LORD,
and whose hope
the LORD is.
This
I recall
to my mind,
therefore have
I hope.
The LORD
is my portion,
saith my soul;
therefore will
I hope in him.
It is good
that a man
should both hope
and quietly wait
for the salvation
of the LORD.
The LORD
also shall roar out of Zion,
and utter
his voice
from Jerusalem;
and the heavens
and the earth
shall shake:
but the LORD
will be the hope
of his people,
and the strength
of the children
of Israel.
Turn you
to the strong hold,
ye prisoners
of hope:
even to day
do
I declare that
I will render
double unto thee;
But when Paul
perceived
that the one part
were Sadducees,
and the other Pharisees,
he cried out
in the council,
Men and brethren,
I am a Pharisee,
the son
of a Pharisee:
of the hope
and resurrection
of the dead
I am called in question.
And have
hope toward God,
which they themselves
also allow,
that there shall be a resurrection
of the dead,
both of the just
and unjust.
For this cause
therefore have
I called for you,
to see you,
and
to speak
with you:
because
that for the hope
of Israel I
am bound
with this chain.
Who against hope
believed
in hope,
that he
might become
the father
of many nations,
according to
that which
was spoken,
So shall
thy seed be.
By whom also
we have
access
by faith
into this grace
wherein we stand,
and rejoice
in hope
of the glory
of God.
And not only so,
but we
glory
in tribulations also:
knowing
that tribulation
worketh patience;
And patience,
experience;
and experience,
hope:
And hope
maketh not ashamed;
because
the love
of God
is shed abroad
in our hearts
by the Holy Ghost
which is given unto us.
For we
are saved
by hope:
but hope
that is seen
is not hope:
for what a man seeth,
why doth
he yet hope for?
Rejoicing
in hope;
patient
in tribulation;
continuing instant
in prayer;
For whatsoever things
were written
aforetime were written
for our learning,
that we
through patience
and comfort
of the scriptures
might have hope.
And
now abideth faith,
hope,
charity,
these three;
but the greatest
of these is charity.
If in this life only
we have
hope in Christ,
we are of all men most miserable.
Seeing
then that
we have
such hope,
we use great plainness
of speech:
For we
through the Spirit
wait for the hope
of righteousness
by faith.
The eyes
of your understanding
being enlightened;
that ye
may know
what is the hope
of his calling,
and
what the riches
of the glory
of his inheritance
in the saints,
There is one body,
and one Spirit,
even as
ye are called in one hope
of your calling;
According to
my earnest expectation
and my hope,
that in nothing
I shall be ashamed,
but
that with all boldness,
as always,
so now also
Christ shall be magnified
in my body,
whether it
be by life,
or by death.
For the hope
which is laid up
for you
in heaven,
whereof
ye heard before
in the word
of the truth
of the gospel;
If ye
continue
in the faith
grounded
and settled,
and be not moved away
from the hope
of the gospel,
which ye
have heard,
and which
was preached
to every creature
which is under heaven;
whereof
I Paul
am made
a minister;
To whom God
would make
known
what is the riches
of the glory
of this mystery
among the Gentiles;
which is Christ
in you,
the hope
of glory:
Remembering
without ceasing
your work
of faith,
and labour
of love,
and patience
of hope
in our Lord Jesus Christ,
in the sight
of God
and our Father;
But let us,
who are of the day,
be sober,
putting on the breastplate
of faith
and love;
and
for an helmet,
the hope
of salvation.
Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself,
and God,
even our Father,
which hath loved us,
and hath given us
everlasting consolation
and good hope
through grace,
Paul,
an apostle
of Jesus Christ
by the commandment
of God our Saviour,
and Lord Jesus Christ,
which is our hope;
Unto Timothy,
my own son
in the faith:
Grace,
mercy,
and peace,
from God our Father
and Jesus Christ
our Lord.
Looking for
that blessed hope,
and the glorious appearing
of the great God
and our Saviour Jesus Christ;
That being justified
by his grace,
we should be made heirs
according to
the hope
of eternal life.
But Christ
as a son
over his own house;
whose house
are we,
if we
hold
fast the confidence
and the rejoicing
of the hope firm
unto the end.
And we
desire that every one
of you
do shew
the same diligence
to the full assurance
of hope
unto the end:
Now faith
is the substance
of things
hoped for,
the evidence
of things not seen.
Blessed
be
the God
and Father
of our Lord Jesus Christ,
which according to
his abundant mercy
hath begotten us again
unto a
lively hope
by the resurrection
of Jesus Christ
from the dead,
Wherefore gird
up the loins
of your mind,
be sober,
and hope
to the end
for the grace
that is
to be brought
unto you
at the revelation
of Jesus Christ;
Who
by him do believe
in God,
that raised
him up
from the dead,
and gave him glory;
that your faith
and hope
might be
in God.
But sanctify
the Lord God
in your hearts:
and be ready always
to give an answer
to every man
that asketh you
a reason
of the hope
that is in you
with meekness
and fear:
And every man that
hath
this hope
in him purifieth himself,
even as
he is pure.
