Behold, the eye of the LORD is upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his mercy;
Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
They shall not hunger nor thirst; neither shall the heat nor sun smite them: for he that hath mercy on them shall lead them, even by the springs of water shall he guide them.
My son, forget not my law; but let thine heart keep my commandments:
Come, ye children, hearken unto me: I will teach you the fear of the LORD.
