in order that we, who were the first to put our hope in Christ, might be for the praise of his glory.

We were the first to put our hope in Christ. We were chosen to bring praise to his glory.

so that we who were the first to hope in Christ might be to the praise of his glory.

God’s purpose was that we Jews who were the first to trust in Christ would bring praise and glory to God.

so that we who had already put our hope in Christ might bring praise to his glory.

that we who first trusted in Christ should be to the praise of His glory.

to the end that we should be unto the praise of his glory, we who had before hoped in Christ:

so that we who had already put our hope in the Messiah might bring praise to His glory.

That we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ.

so that we, who were the first to set our hope on Christ, would be to the praise of his glory.

to the end that we should be to the praise of his glory, we who had before hoped in Christ.

to the praise of the glory of His grace, with which He favored us in the Beloved.

But we should always give thanks to God for you, brothers and sisters beloved by the Lord, because God has chosen you from the beginning for salvation through sanctification by the Spirit and faith in the truth.

In Him, you also, after listening to the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation— having also believed, you were sealed in Him with the Holy Spirit of the promise,who is a first installment of our inheritance, in regard to the redemption of God’s own possession, to the praise of His glory.

“ Behold, My Servant whom I have chosen; My Beloved in whom My soul delights; I will put My Spirit upon Him, And He will proclaim justice to the Gentiles.He will not quarrel, nor cry out; Nor will anyone hear His voice in the streets.A bent reed He will not break off, And a dimly burning wick He will not extinguish, Until He leads justice to victory.And in His name the Gentiles will hope.”

Kiss the Son, that He not be angry and you perish on the way, For His wrath may be kindled quickly. How blessed are all who take refuge in Him!

In His days Judah will be saved, And Israel will live securely; And this is His name by which He will be called,‘ The Lord Our Righteousness.’

Then on that day The nations will resort to the root of Jesse, Who will stand as a signal flag for the peoples; And His resting place will be glorious.

so that in the ages to come He might show the boundless riches of His grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus.

Do not trust in noblemen, In mortal man, in whom there is no salvation.His spirit departs, he returns to the earth; On that very day his plans perish.Blessed is he whose help is the God of Jacob, Whose hope is in the Lord his God,

Again Isaiah says,“ There shall come the root of Jesse, And He who arises to rule over the Gentiles, In Him will the Gentiles hope.”Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that you will abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.

“ Behold, My Servant, whom I uphold; My chosen one in whom My soul delights. I have put My Spirit upon Him; He will bring forth justice to the nations.He will not cry out nor raise His voice, Nor make His voice heard in the street.A bent reed He will not break off And a dimly burning wick He will not extinguish; He will faithfully bring forth justice.He will not be disheartened or crushed Until He has established justice on the earth; And the coastlands will wait expectantly for His law.”

In the exercise of His will He gave us birth by the word of truth, so that we would be a kind of first fruits among His creatures.

In the Lord all the offspring of Israel Will be justified and will boast.”

This is what the Lord says:“ Cursed is the man who trusts in mankind And makes flesh his strength, And whose heart turns away from the Lord.For he will be like a bush in the desert, And will not see when prosperity comes, But will live in stony wastes in the wilderness, A land of salt that is not inhabited.Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, And whose trust is the Lord.

“ Do not let your heart be troubled; believe in God, believe also in Me.

Behold, God is my salvation, I will trust and not be afraid; For the Lord God is my strength and song, And He has become my salvation.”

I have sworn by Myself; The word has gone out from My mouth in righteousness And will not turn back, That to Me every knee will bow, every tongue will swear allegiance.

to Him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations forever and ever. Amen.

Behold, a king will reign righteously, And officials will rule justly.Each will be like a refuge from the wind And a shelter from the storm, Like streams of water in a dry country, Like the shade of a huge rock in an exhausted land.

who through Him are believers in God, who raised Him from the dead and gave Him glory, so that your faith and hope are in God.

For this reason I also suffer these things; but I am not ashamed, for I know whom I have believed, and I am convinced that He is able to protect what I have entrusted to Him until that day.
