May the Sovereign God bless you! May he make you fruitful and give you a multitude of descendants! Then you will become a large nation.

Commit your future to the LORD! Trust in him, and he will act on your behalf.

For the LORD is good. His loyal love endures, and he is faithful through all generations.
