(A)“Give attention to me, my people,
    and give ear to me, my nation;
(B)for a law[a] will go out from me,
    and I will set my justice for a light to the peoples.
(C)My righteousness draws near,
    my salvation has gone out,
    and my arms will judge the peoples;
(D)the coastlands hope for me,
    and for my arm they wait.
(E)Lift up your eyes to the heavens,
    and look at the earth beneath;
(F)for the heavens vanish like smoke,
    the earth will wear out like a garment,
    and they who dwell in it will die in like manner;[b]
(G)but my salvation will be forever,
    and my righteousness will never be dismayed.

The Lord Reigns

93 (A)The Lord reigns; he is (B)robed in majesty;
    the Lord is (C)robed; he has (D)put on strength as his belt.
(E)Yes, the world is established; (F)it shall never be moved.
(G)Your throne is established from of old;
    (H)you are from everlasting.

(I)The floods have lifted up, O Lord,
    the floods have lifted up their voice;
    the floods lift up their roaring.
Mightier than the thunders of many waters,
    mightier than the waves of the sea,
    (J)the Lord (K)on high is mighty!

Your (L)decrees are very trustworthy;
    (M)holiness befits your house,
    O Lord, forevermore.

20 But you, beloved, (A)building yourselves up in your most holy faith and (B)praying in the Holy Spirit, 21 (C)keep yourselves in the love of God, (D)waiting for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ that leads to eternal life. 22 And have mercy on those who doubt; 23 save others by (E)snatching them out of (F)the fire; to others show mercy (G)with fear, hating even (H)the garment[a] stained by the flesh.

Doxology

24 (I)Now to him who is able (J)to keep you from stumbling and (K)to present you (L)blameless before the presence of his glory with great joy, 25 to (M)the only God, our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, (N)be glory, majesty, dominion, and authority, before all time[b] and now and forever. Amen.

The Coming of the Son of Man

24 “But in those days, after (A)that tribulation, (B)the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light, 25 and (C)the stars will be falling from heaven, and the powers in the heavens will be shaken. 26 And then they will see (D)the Son of Man coming in clouds (E)with great power and glory. 27 And then (F)he will send out the angels and (G)gather (H)his elect from (I)the four winds, from (J)the ends of the earth (K)to the ends of heaven.
