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.
1 Peter 2:9 (NKJV)
But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation,
His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you
out of darkness into His marvelous light.
NLT: But you are not like that,
for you are a chosen people. You are
royal priests, a holy nation, God’s very own possession. As a result you can show others the goodness
of God, for he called you out of the darkness into his wonderful light.
