Hannah's English translation of John 3:16

God loved the earth people

God let down His only Son

and all whoever believe Him will not

be destroyed but will have forever life.

Reflections from the Word:

The Works and the Word of God.

For the choir director. A Psalm of David.

1The heavens are telling of the glory of God;
And their expanse is declaring the work of His hands.

2Day to day pours forth speech,
And night to night reveals knowledge.

3There is no speech, nor are there words;
Their voice is not heard.

4Their line has gone out through all the earth,
And their utterances to the end of the world.
In them He has placed a tent for the sun,

5Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber;
It rejoices as a strong man to run his course.

6Its rising is from one end of the heavens,
And its circuit to the other end of them;
And there is nothing hidden from its heat.

7The law of the LORD is perfect, restoring the soul;
The testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple.

8The precepts of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart;
The commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes.

9The fear of the LORD is clean, enduring forever;
The judgments of the LORD are true; they are righteous altogether.

10They are more desirable than gold, yes, than much fine gold;
Sweeter also than honey and the drippings of the honeycomb.

11Moreover, by them Your servant is warned;
In keeping them there is great reward.

12Who can discern his errors? Acquit me of hidden faults.

13Also keep back Your servant from presumptuous sins;
Let them not rule over me;
Then I will be blameless,
And I shall be acquitted of great transgression.

14Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart
Be acceptable in Your sight,
O LORD, my rock and my Redeemer.

Psalm 19
