Job 19:23-27
New King James Version
23 “Oh, that my words were written!
Oh, that they were inscribed in a book!
24 That they were engraved on a rock
With an iron pen and lead, forever!
25 For I know that my Redeemer lives,
And He shall stand at last on the earth;
26 And after my skin is [a]destroyed, this I know,
That (A)in my flesh I shall see God,
27 Whom I shall see for myself,
And my eyes shall behold, and not another.
How my [b]heart yearns within me!
Psalm 55:17-23
New King James Version
17 (A)Evening and morning and at noon
I will pray, and cry aloud,
And He shall hear my voice.
18 He has redeemed my soul in peace from the battle that was against me,
For (B)there were many against me.
19 God will hear, and afflict them,
(C)Even He who abides from of old. Selah
Because they do not change,
Therefore they do not fear God.
20 He has (D)put forth his hands against those who (E)were at peace with him;
He has broken his [a]covenant.
21 (F)The words of his mouth were smoother than butter,
But war was in his heart;
His words were softer than oil,
Yet they were drawn swords.
22 (G)Cast your burden on the Lord,
And (H)He shall sustain you;
He shall never permit the righteous to be [b]moved.
23 But You, O God, shall bring them down to the pit of destruction;
(I)Bloodthirsty and deceitful men (J)shall not live out half their days;
But I will trust in You.

New King James Version
25 (A)If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. 26 (B)Let us not become conceited, provoking one another, envying one another.
Bear and Share Burdens
6 Brethren, if a man is [a]overtaken in any trespass, you who are spiritual restore such a one in a spirit of (C)gentleness, considering yourself lest you also be tempted. 2 (D)Bear one another’s burdens, and so fulfill (E)the law of Christ. 3 For (F)if anyone thinks himself to be something, when (G)he is nothing, he deceives himself. 4 But (H)let each one examine his own work, and then he will have rejoicing in himself alone, and (I)not in another. 5 For (J)each one shall bear his own load.

New King James Version
Jesus Gives True Rest(A)
25 (B)At that time Jesus answered and said, “I thank You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that (C)You have hidden these things from the wise and prudent (D)and have revealed them to babes. 26 Even so, Father, for so it seemed good in Your sight. 27 (E)All things have been delivered to Me by My Father, and no one knows the Son except the Father. (F)Nor does anyone know the Father except the Son, and the one to whom the Son wills to reveal Him. 28 Come to (G)Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29 Take My yoke upon you (H)and learn from Me, for I am [a]gentle and (I)lowly in heart, (J)and you will find rest for your souls. 30 (K)For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”
