R (25) Let your hearts take comfort, all who hope in the Lord.
How great is the goodness, O Lord,
which you have in store for those who fear you,
And which, toward those who take refuge in you,
you show in the sight of the children of men. R
You hide them in the shelter of your presence
from the plottings of men;
You screen them within your abode
from the strife of tongues. R
Love the Lord, all you his faithful ones!
The Lord keeps those who are constant,
but more than requites those who act proudly. R
Alleluia, alleluia. Whoever loves me will keep my word,/ and my Father will love him/ and we will come to him. Alleluia, alleluia.
- And your Father who sees what is hidden will repay you. l
