The prospect of the righteous is joy, but the hope of the wicked will perish.

My soul, wait in silence for God alone, for my expectation is from him.

Having the eyes of your hearts enlightened, that you may know what is the hope of his calling, and what are the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints.

So you shall know wisdom to be to your soul. If you have found it, then there will be a reward: Your hope will not be cut off.

I wait for Yahweh. My soul waits. I hope in his word.

Let your loving kindness be on us, Yahweh, since we have hoped in you.

Guide me in your truth, and teach me, for you are the God of my salvation. I wait for you all day long.

But if we hope for that which we don’t see, we wait for it with patience.

But as for me, I will look to Yahweh. I will wait for the God of my salvation. My God will hear me.

You are my hiding place and my shield. I hope in your word.

Not only this, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces perseverance; and perseverance, proven character; and proven character, hope.

Why are you in despair, my soul? Why are you disturbed within me? Hope in God! For I shall still praise him, the saving help of my countenance, and my God.

And hope doesn’t disappoint us, because God’s love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us.

Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but when longing is fulfilled, it is a tree of life.

The Lord Yahweh’s Spirit is on me, because Yahweh has anointed me to preach good news to the humble. He has sent me to bind up the broken hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives and release to those who are bound.

But now faith, hope, and love remain—these three. The greatest of these is love.

Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope in the power of the Holy Spirit.

Now faith is assurance of things hoped for, proof of things not seen.

Yahweh will keep you from all evil. He will keep your soul. Yahweh will keep your going out and your coming in, from this time forward, and forever more.

To whom God was pleased to make known what are the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.

But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts. Always be ready to give an answer to everyone who asks you a reason concerning the hope that is in you, with humility and fear.

For whatever things were written before were written for our learning, that through perseverance and through encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope.

Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest.

But those who wait for Yahweh will renew their strength. They will mount up with wings like eagles. They will run, and not be weary. They will walk, and not faint.

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to his great mercy caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.

Be strong, and let your heart take courage, all you who hope in Yahweh.

There is one body and one Spirit, even as you also were called in one hope of your calling.

“For I know the thoughts that I think toward you,” says Yahweh, “thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you hope and a future.”

Let’s hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering; for he who promised is faithful.

“Yahweh is my portion,” says my soul. “Therefore I will hope in him.”
