Jeremiah 31:3

The Lord appeared to us in the past, saying:  “I have loved you with an everlasting love; I have drawn you with loving-kindness.”

NLT:  Long ago the Lord said to Israel:  “I have loved you, my people, with an everlasting love.  With unfailing love I have drawn you to myself.”

Isaiah 61:10

I delight greatly in the Lord; my soul rejoices in my God.  For he has clothed me with garments of salvation and arrayed me in a robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom adorns his head like a priest, and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.

NLT:  I am overwhelmed with joy in the Lord my God!  For he has dressed me with the clothing of salvation and draped me in a robe of righteousness.  I am like a bridegroom in his wedding suit or a bride with her jewels.

Psalm 31:16

Let your face shine on your servant; save me in your unfailing love.

NLT:  Let your favor shine on your servant.  In your unfailing love, rescue me.

Psalm 107:8

Let them give thanks to the Lord for his unfailing love and his wonderful deeds for men.

NLT:  Let them praise the Lord for his great love and for the wonderful things he has done for them.
