  1. Mark 15:34 I.e., 3 p.m.

17 By this, (A)love is perfected with us, so that we may have (B)confidence in (C)the day of judgment; because (D)as He is, we also are in this world. 18 There is no fear in love, but (E)perfect love drives out fear, because fear [a]involves punishment, and the one who fears is not (F)perfected in love.

  1. 1 John 4:18 Lit has

Israel Redeemed

43 But now, this is what the Lord says, He who is your (A)Creator, Jacob,
And He who (B)formed you, Israel:
“Do not (C)fear, for I have (D)redeemed you;
I have (E)called you by name; you are (F)Mine!
When you (G)pass through the waters, (H)I will be with you;
And through the rivers, they will not overflow you.
When you (I)walk through the fire, you will not be scorched,
Nor will the flame burn you.
For (J)I am the Lord your God,
The Holy One of Israel, your (K)Savior;
I have given Egypt as your ransom,
[a](L)Cush and Seba in exchange for you.
Since you are (M)precious in My sight,
Since you are (N)honored and I (O)love you,
I will give other people in your place and other nations in exchange for your life.
Do not fear, for (P)I am with you;
I will bring (Q)your offspring from the east,
And (R)gather you from the west.
I will say to the (S)north, ‘Give them up!’
And to the south, ‘Do not hold them back.’
Bring My (T)sons from afar
And My daughters from the (U)ends of the earth,
Everyone who is (V)called by My name,
And whom I have (W)created for My (X)glory,
(Y)Whom I have formed, even whom I have made.”

  1. Isaiah 43:3 Or Ethiopia

19 The Lord founded the earth (A)by wisdom,
He (B)established the heavens by understanding.
20 By His knowledge the (C)ocean depths were burst open,
And the (D)clouds drip with dew.
21 My son, see that (E)they do not escape from your sight;
Comply with sound wisdom and discretion,
22 And they will be (F)life to your soul
And (G)adornment to your neck.
23 Then you will (H)walk in your way securely,
And your foot will not (I)stumble.
24 When you (J)lie down, you will not be afraid;
When you lie down, your sleep will be sweet.
25 (K)Do not be afraid of sudden danger,
Nor of (L)trouble from the wicked when it comes;
26 For the Lord will be [a]your confidence,
And will (M)keep your foot from being caught.
