its mouth to Peter's hook so that Peter could pay their temple tax. He sent
such a
multitude of fish to the nets of Peter, James and John that their nets almost

them become like them: they have eyes and ears but they do not see and hear
Your truth;
they have feet but they do not walk in Your ways; they have hands but they
do not do Your deeds. But You, our God, made heaven and earth. The heaven,

of men.

forevermore. Praise the Lord.

,
and Your right hand shall hold us.

that Lebanon is not sufficient to burn, nor its beasts sufficient for
a burnt offering. O Lord, You are so great that all nations before You are
as nothing; yes, You count them as less than nothing and worthless.
|
|
Isaiah 49:6
|
O Lord, we praise You that You sent Your Servant Jesus Christ not only to r

might. Who would not fear You, O King of the nations? For this is Your
rightful due. You are the true God, the living God, the everlasting King.
At Your wrath the earth will tremble, and the nations will not be able to
endure Your indignation. The gods that have not made the heavens and the

wisdom and stretched out the heavens at Your discretion.

them. You are the Great, the Mighty God, whose name is the LORD of hosts.

the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit, whom You
poured out on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior.
