31:31
The days are surely coming, says the LORD, when I will make a
new covenant with the house of Israel and the house of Judah.
31:32
It will not be like the covenant that I made with their
ancestors when I took them by the hand to bring them out of the
land of Egypt--a covenant that they broke, though I was their
husband, says the LORD.
31:33
But this is the covenant that I will make with the house of
Israel after those days, says the LORD: I will put my law within
them, and I will write it on their hearts; and I will be their
God, and they shall be my people.
31:34
No longer shall they teach one another, or say to each other,
"Know the LORD," for they shall all know me, from the
least of them to the greatest, says the LORD; for I will forgive
their iniquity, and remember their sin no more.

51:1
Have mercy on me, O God, according to your steadfast love;
according to your abundant mercy blot out my transgressions.
51:2
Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.
51:3
For I know my transgressions, and my sin is ever before me.
51:4
Against you, you alone, have I sinned, and done what is evil in
your sight, so that you are justified in your sentence and
blameless when you pass judgment.
51:5
Indeed, I was born guilty, a sinner when my mother conceived me.
51:6
You desire truth in the inward being; therefore teach me wisdom
in my secret heart.
51:7
Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean; wash me, and I shall
be whiter than snow.
51:8
Let me hear joy and gladness; let the bones that you have
crushed rejoice.
51:9
Hide your face from my sins, and blot out all my iniquities.
51:10
Create in me a clean heart, O God, and put a new and right
spirit within me.
51:11
Do not cast me away from your presence, and do not take your
holy spirit from me.
51:12
Restore to me the joy of your salvation, and sustain in me a
willing spirit.

How can young people keep their way pure? By guarding it

119:16
I will delight in your statutes; I will not forget your word.

5:5
So also Christ did not glorify himself in becoming a high
priest, but was appointed by the one who said to him, "You
are my Son, today I have begotten you";
5:6
as he says also in another place, "You are a priest
forever, according to the order of Melchizedek."
5:7
In the days of his flesh, Jesus offered up prayers and
supplications, with loud cries and tears, to the one who was
able to save him from death, and he was heard because of his
reverent submission.
5:8
Although he was a Son, he learned obedience through what he
suffered;
5:9
and having been made perfect, he became the source of eternal
salvation for all who obey him,
5:10
having been designated by God a high priest according to the
order of Melchizedek.

12:22
Philip went and told Andrew; then Andrew and Philip went and
told Jesus.
12:23
Jesus answered them, "The hour has come for the Son of Man
to be glorified.
12:24
Very truly, I tell you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the
earth and dies, it remains just a single grain; but if it dies,
it bears much fruit.
12:25
Those who love their life lose it, and those who hate their life
in this world will keep it for eternal life.
12:26
Whoever serves me must follow me, and where I am, there will my
servant be also. Whoever serves me, the Father will honor.
12:27
"Now my soul is troubled. And what should I say--' Father,
save me from this hour'? No, it is for this reason that I have
come to this hour.
12:28
Father, glorify your name." Then a voice came from heaven,
"I have glorified it, and I will glorify it again."
12:29
The crowd standing there heard it and said that it was thunder.
Others said, "An angel has spoken to him."
12:30
Jesus answered, "This voice has come for your sake, not for
mine.
12:31
Now is the judgment of this world; now the ruler of this world
will be driven out.
12:32
And I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all people
to myself."
12:33
He said this to indicate the kind of death he was to die.
