The Lord is My Shepherd; I shall not want. Psalms 23:1 He makes Me to lie down in green pastures; He leads Me beside the still waters. 2 He restores My soul; He leads Me in The Path of Righteousness for His Name’s Sake. 3 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for You Are With Me; Your Rod and Your Staff, they comfort Me. 4 You prepare a table before Me in the presence of My enemies; You Anoint My head with oil; My cup runs over. 5 Surely Goodness and Mercy shall follow Me all The Days of My Life; and I will dwell in The House of The Lord forever. 6

For a voice of wailing is heard from Zion: How are we plundered! We are greatly ashamed, because we have forsaken the land, because we have been cast out of our dwelling. Jeremiah 9:19 For death has come through our windows, has entered our palaces, to kill off the children— no longer to be outside! And the young men— no longer on the streets! 21 ‘Behold The Days are coming,’ says The Lord, That I will punish all who are circumcised with the uncircumcised— 25 Egypt, Judah, Edom, the people of Ammon, Moab, and all who are in the farthest corners, who dwell in the wilderness. For all these nations are uncircumcised, and all The House of Israel are uncircumcised in the heart. 26

For the customs of the peoples are futile; for one cuts a tree from the forest, the work of the hands of the workman, with the ax. 10:3 They decorate it with silver and gold; they fasten it with nails and hammers so that it will not topple. 4 They are upright, like a palm tree, and they cannot speak; they must be carried, because they cannot go by themselves. Do not be afraid of them, for they cannot do evil, nor can they do any good. 5 But they are altogether dull-hearted and foolish; a wooden idol is a worthless doctrine. 8

But The Lord is ‘The True God’; He is ‘The Living God’ and ‘The Everlasting King’. At His Wrath the earth will tremble, and the nations will not be able to endure His Indignation. 10 Thus You shall say to them: The gods that have not made the heavens and the earth shall perish from the earth and from under these heavens. 11 He has made the earth by His Power, He has established the world by His Wisdom, and has stretched out the heavens at His discretion. 12

The Spirit of The Lord is upon Me, because The Lord has Anointed Me to preach Good Tidings to the poor; He has Sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, to Proclain Liberty to the captives, and of the opening of the prison to those who are bound; Isaiah 61:1 To Proclaim ‘The Acceptable Year of The Lord’, and The Day of Vengeance of Our God; to comforth all who mourn, 2 To console those who mourn in Zion, to give them beauty for ashes, The Oil of Joy for mourning, The Garment of Praise for the spirit of heaviness, that they may be called Trees of Righteousness, The Planting of The Lord, that He May Be Glorified. 3

And they shall rebuild the old ruins, they shall raise up the former desolations, and they shall repair the ruined cities, the desolations of many generations. 4 Strangers shall stand and feed your flocks, and the son of foreigner shall be your plowmen and your vinedressors. 5 But you shall be named The Priests of The Lord, they shall call you The Servants of Our God. You shall eat the riches of the Gentiles, and in their glory you shall boast. 6 Instead of your shame you shall have double honor, and instead of confussion they shall rejoice in their portion. Therefore in their land they shall possess double; everlasting joy shall be theirs. 7

For I, The Lord, love justice; I hate robbery for burnt offering; I Will Direct their work in Truth, and will make with them An Everlasting Covenant. 8 Their descendants shall be known among the Gentiles, and their offspring among the people. All who see them shall acknowlege them, that they are The Posterity who The Lord has blessed. 9

I will greatly Rejoice in The Lord, my soul shall be joyful in My God; for He has clothed me with The Garments of Salvation, He has Covered Me with The Robe of Righteousness, As ‘A Bridegroom’ decks himself with ornaments, and as ‘A Bride’ adorns herself with her jewels. 10 For as the earth brings forth its bud, as the garden causes the things that are sown in it to spring forth, so The Lord God will cause Rightousness and Praise to spring forth before all the nations. 11

Thus says The Lord of Hosts, The God of Israel: "They shall again use ‘This Speech’ in The Land of Judah and in its cities, when I bring back
