MORNING
He preserveth the way of his saints.
The Lord your God ... went in the way before you, to search you out a place to pitch your tents in, in fire by night, to shew you by what way ye should go, and in a cloud by day. ? As an eagle stirreth up her nest, fluttereth over her young, spreadeth abroad her wings, taketh them, beareth them on her wings: so the Lord alone did lead him. ? The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord: and he delighteth in his way. Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the Lord upholdeth him with his hand. ? Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the Lord delivereth him out of them all. ? For the Lord knoweth the way of the righteous; but the way of the ungodly shall perish. ? We know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. ? With us is the Lord our God to help us, and to fight our battles.
The Lord thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy.

EVENING
My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?
He was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; ... the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all ... For the transgression of my people was he stricken ... It pleased the Lord to bruise him; he hath put him to grief.
Jesus our Lord ... was delivered for our offences. ? Christ hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God. ? Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.
He hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.
Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us.
