56 “Blessed be the LORD, who has given rest to His people Israel, according to all that Heacpromised; not one word hasadfailed of all His goodaepromise, which Heafpromised through Moses His servant. 57 May the LORD our God be with us, as He was with our fathers; may He not leave us or forsake us, 58 that He may incline our hearts to Himself, to walk in all His ways and to keep His commandments and His statutes and His ordinances, which He commanded our fathers. 59 And may these words of mine, with which I have made supplication before the LORD, be near to the LORD our God day and night, that He may maintain theagcause of His servant and theahcause of His people Israel,aias each day requires, 60 so that all the peoples of the earth may know that the LORD is God; there is no one else. 61 Let your heart therefore beajwholly devoted to the LORD our God, to walk in His statutes and to keep His commandments, as at this day.” |
