My soul, wait thou only upon God; for my expectation is from him.

The hope of the righteous shall be gladness: but the expectation of the wicked shall perish.

For surely there is an end; and thine expectation shall not be cut off.

For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.

O my God, I trust in thee: let me not be ashamed, let not mine enemies triumph over me.

Let my heart be sound in thy statutes; that I be not ashamed.

Uphold me according unto thy word, that I may live: and let me not be ashamed of my hope.

But Israel shall be saved in the LORD with an everlasting salvation: ye shall not be ashamed nor confounded world without end.

For the Lord GOD will help me; therefore shall I not be confounded: therefore have I set my face like a flint, and I know that I shall not be ashamed.

Fear not; for thou shalt not be ashamed: neither be thou confounded; for thou shalt not be put to shame: for thou shalt forget the shame of thy youth, and shalt not remember the reproach of thy widowhood any more.

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.

As it is written, Behold, I lay in Sion a stumblingstone and rock of offence: and whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.

For if I have boasted any thing to him of you, I am not ashamed; but as we spake all things to you in truth, even so our boasting, which I made before Titus, is found a truth.

For though I should boast somewhat more of our authority, which the Lord hath given us for edification, and not for your destruction, I should not be ashamed:

And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel,

For which I am an ambassador in bonds: that therein I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.

Yet if any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf.

And now, little children, abide in him; that, when he shall appear, we may have confidence, and not be ashamed before him at his coming.

And many of the brethren in the Lord, waxing confident by my bonds, are much more bold to speak the word without fear.

Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place.

To the one we are the savour of death unto death; and to the other the savour of life unto life. And who is sufficient for these things?

Yea, and if I be offered upon the sacrifice and service of your faith, I joy, and rejoice with you all.

Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God.

I speak after the manner of men because of the infirmity of your flesh: for as ye have yielded your members servants to uncleanness and to iniquity unto iniquity; even so now yield your members servants to righteousness unto holiness.

I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.

For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.

There is difference also between a wife and a virgin. The unmarried woman careth for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit: but she that is married careth for the things of the world, how she may please her husband.

And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again.

And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

For I am in a strait betwixt two, having a desire to depart, and to be with Christ; which is far better:

Nevertheless to abide in the flesh is more needful for you.

Now is my soul troubled; and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour: but for this cause came I unto this hour.

Father, glorify thy name. Then came there a voice from heaven, saying, I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again.

This spake he, signifying by what death he should glorify God. And when he had spoken this, he saith unto him, Follow me.

But none of these things move me, neither count I my life dear unto myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry, which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God.

Then Paul answered, What mean ye to weep and to break mine heart? for I am ready not to be bound only, but also to die at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus.

For none of us liveth to himself, and no man dieth to himself.

For to this end Christ both died, and rose, and revived, that he might be Lord both of the dead and living.

I protest by your rejoicing which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily.

Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body.

Who now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up that which is behind of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh for his body's sake, which is the church:

For I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand.

I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith:

Wherefore I will not be negligent to put you always in remembrance of these things, though ye know them, and be established in the present truth.

Knowing that shortly I must put off this my tabernacle, even as our Lord Jesus Christ hath shewed me.
