You are my strength,(A) I watch for you;
    you, God, are my fortress,(B)
10     my God on whom I can rely.

God will go before me
    and will let me gloat over those who slander me.
11 But do not kill them, Lord our shield,[a](C)
    or my people will forget.(D)
In your might uproot them
    and bring them down.(E)
12 For the sins of their mouths,(F)
    for the words of their lips,(G)
    let them be caught in their pride.(H)
For the curses and lies they utter,
13     consume them in your wrath,
    consume them till they are no more.(I)
Then it will be known to the ends of the earth
    that God rules over Jacob.(J)

14 They return at evening,
    snarling like dogs,
    and prowl about the city.
15 They wander about for food(K)
    and howl if not satisfied.
16 But I will sing(L) of your strength,(M)
    in the morning(N) I will sing of your love;(O)
for you are my fortress,(P)
    my refuge in times of trouble.(Q)

17 You are my strength, I sing praise to you;
    you, God, are my fortress,
    my God on whom I can rely.(R)

  1. Psalm 59:11 Or sovereign

Because of his strength will I wait upon thee: for God is my defence.

10 The God of my mercy shall prevent me: God shall let me see my desire upon mine enemies.

11 Slay them not, lest my people forget: scatter them by thy power; and bring them down, O Lord our shield.

12 For the sin of their mouth and the words of their lips let them even be taken in their pride: and for cursing and lying which they speak.

13 Consume them in wrath, consume them, that they may not be: and let them know that God ruleth in Jacob unto the ends of the earth. Selah.

14 And at evening let them return; and let them make a noise like a dog, and go round about the city.

15 Let them wander up and down for meat, and grudge if they be not satisfied.

16 But I will sing of thy power; yea, I will sing aloud of thy mercy in the morning: for thou hast been my defence and refuge in the day of my trouble.

17 Unto thee, O my strength, will I sing: for God is my defence, and the God of my mercy.

Jesus Calls His First Disciples(A)

18 As Jesus was walking beside the Sea of Galilee,(B) he saw two brothers, Simon called Peter(C) and his brother Andrew. They were casting a net into the lake, for they were fishermen. 19 “Come, follow me,”(D) Jesus said, “and I will send you out to fish for people.” 20 At once they left their nets and followed him.(E)

21 Going on from there, he saw two other brothers, James son of Zebedee and his brother John.(F) They were in a boat with their father Zebedee, preparing their nets. Jesus called them, 22 and immediately they left the boat and their father and followed him.(G)

Jesus Heals the Sick

23 Jesus went throughout Galilee,(H) teaching in their synagogues,(I) proclaiming the good news(J) of the kingdom,(K) and healing every disease and sickness among the people.(L) 24 News about him spread all over Syria,(M) and people brought to him all who were ill with various diseases, those suffering severe pain, the demon-possessed,(N) those having seizures,(O) and the paralyzed;(P) and he healed them.

18 And Jesus, walking by the sea of Galilee, saw two brethren, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers.

19 And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.

20 And they straightway left their nets, and followed him.

21 And going on from thence, he saw other two brethren, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in a ship with Zebedee their father, mending their nets; and he called them.

22 And they immediately left the ship and their father, and followed him.

23 And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all manner of sickness and all manner of disease among the people.

24 And his fame went throughout all Syria: and they brought unto him all sick people that were taken with divers diseases and torments, and those which were possessed with devils, and those which were lunatick, and those that had the palsy; and he healed them.
