Love and faithfulness will meet; righteousness and peace will embrace.

O LORD, I will always sing of your constant love; I will proclaim your faithfulness forever.

Enter the Temple gates with thanksgiving; go into its courts with praise. Give thanks to him and praise him.

The LORD is good; his love is eternal and his faithfulness lasts forever.

LORD, you are my God; I will honor you and praise your name. You have done amazing things; you have faithfully carried out the plans you made long ago.

You will show your faithfulness and constant love to your people, the descendants of Abraham and of Jacob, as you promised our ancestors long ago.

He has kept the promise he made to our ancestors, and has come to the help of his servant Israel.

He has remembered to show mercy to Abraham and to all his descendants forever!"

Jesus answered him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life; no one goes to the Father except by me.

For I tell you that Christ's life of service was on behalf of the Jews, to show that God is faithful, to make his promises to their ancestors come true,

and to enable even the Gentiles to praise God for his mercy. As the scripture says, "And so I will praise you among the Gentiles; I will sing praises to you."

Jesus Christ is the one who came with the water of his baptism and the blood of his death. He came not only with the water, but with both the water and the blood. And the Spirit himself testifies that this is true, because the Spirit is truth.
