TSK · Proverbs 14:32

Even if he slays me, I will hope in him; I will surely defend my ways to his face!

As for me, I know that my Redeemer lives, and that as the last he will stand upon the earth.

You lead me in the path of life; I experience absolute joy in your presence; you always give me sheer delight.

Even when I must walk through the darkest valley, I fear no danger, for you are with me; your rod and your staff reassure me.

Before the kindling is even placed under your pots, he will sweep it away along with both the raw and cooked meat.

Therefore, his disaster will come suddenly; in an instant he will be broken, and there will be no remedy.

Indeed a righteous person will fall seven times, and then get up again, but the guilty will collapse in calamity.

“Now, according to your word, Sovereign Lord, permit your servant to depart in peace.

Thus I told you that you will die in your sins. For unless you believe that I am he, you will die in your sins.”

“Where, O death, is your victory? Where, O death, is your sting?”

Thus we are full of courage and would prefer to be away from the body and at home with the Lord.

I feel torn between the two, because I have a desire to depart and be with Christ, which is better by far,

The Lord will deliver me from every evil deed and will bring me safely into his heavenly kingdom. To him be glory for ever and ever! Amen.
