11 The Lord will give strength to his people; the Lord will give his people the blessing of peace.
May the Lord send his blessing on you and keep you: May the light of the Lord's face be shining on you in grace: May the Lord's approval be resting on you and may he give you peace. So they will put my name on the children of Israel, and I will give them my blessing.
But those who are waiting for the Lord will have new strength; they will get wings like eagles: running, they will not be tired, and walking, they will have no weariness.
He gives power to the feeble, increasing the strength of him who has no force.
O God, you are to be feared in your holy place: the God of Israel gives strength and power to his people. Praise be to God.
Now the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times and in every way. May the Lord be with you all.
For the kingdom of God is not food and drink, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.
And I will make the children of Judah strong, and I will be the saviour of the children of Joseph, and I will make them come back again, for I have had mercy on them: they will be as if I had not given them up: for I am the Lord their God and I will give them an answer.
The Lord is their strength, and a strong place of salvation for his king. Be a saviour to your people, and send a blessing on your heritage: be their guide, and let them be lifted up for ever.
When my cry came to your ears you gave me an answer, and made me great with strength in my soul.
I have said all these things to you so that in me you may have peace. In the world you have trouble: but take heart! I have overcome the world.
Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
For to us a child has come, to us a son is given; and the government has been placed in his hands; and he has been named Wise Guide, Strong God, Father for ever, Prince of Peace. Of the increase of his rule and of peace there will be no end, on the seat of David, and in his kingdom; to make it strong, supporting it with wise decision and righteousness, now and for ever. By the fixed purpose of the Lord of armies this will be done.
May peace be with you; my peace I give to you: I give it not as the world gives. Let not your heart be troubled; let it be without fear.
But the gentle will have the earth for their heritage; they will take their delight in peace without measure.
In his days may the upright do well, living in peace as long as there is a moon in heaven.
And he came preaching peace to you who were far off, and to those who were near;
Mercy and faith have come together; righteousness and peace have given one another a kiss.
