Because the LORD is righteous and good, he teaches sinners the path they should follow.

With faithfulness and love he leads all who keep his covenant and obey his commands.

Send your light and your truth; may they lead me and bring me back to Zion, your sacred hill, and to your Temple, where you live.

Then I will go to your altar, O God; you are the source of my happiness. I will play my harp and sing praise to you, O God, my God.

He led them by a straight road to a city where they could live.

There will be a highway there, called "The Road of Holiness." No sinner will ever travel that road; no fools will mislead those who follow it.

"I will lead my blind people by roads they have never traveled. I will turn their darkness into light and make rough country smooth before them. These are my promises, and I will keep them without fail.

they will never be hungry or thirsty. Sun and desert heat will not hurt them, for they will be led by one who loves them. He will lead them to springs of water.

My people will return weeping, praying as I lead them back. I will guide them to streams of water, on a smooth road where they will not stumble. I am like a father to Israel, and Ephraim is my oldest son."

So Jesus said to those who believed in him, "If you obey my teaching, you are really my disciples;

you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free."

The Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you everything and make you remember all that I have told you.

When, however, the Spirit comes, who reveals the truth about God, he will lead you into all the truth. He will not speak on his own authority, but he will speak of what he hears and will tell you of things to come.

Those who are led by God's Spirit are God's children.

You certainly heard about him, and as his followers you were taught the truth that is in Jesus.

But as for you, Christ has poured out his Spirit on you. As long as his Spirit remains in you, you do not need anyone to teach you. For his Spirit teaches you about everything, and what he teaches is true, not false. Obey the Spirit's teaching, then, and remain in union with Christ.

because the Lamb, who is in the center of the throne, will be their shepherd, and he will guide them to springs of life-giving water. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes."

I confessed all I have done, and you answered me; teach me your ways.

Teach me, LORD, the meaning of your laws, and I will obey them at all times.

Give me wisdom and knowledge, because I trust in your commands.

In your goodness you told them what they should do; you fed them manna and gave them water to drink.

Remember how great is God's power; he is the greatest teacher of all.

"I myself will teach your people and give them prosperity and peace.

The new covenant that I will make with the people of Israel will be this: I will put my law within them and write it on their hearts. I will be their God, and they will be my people.

None of them will have to teach a neighbor to know the LORD, because all will know me, from the least to the greatest. I will forgive their sins and I will no longer remember their wrongs. I, the LORD, have spoken."

The prophets wrote, 'Everyone will be taught by God.' Anyone who hears the Father and learns from him comes to me.

That was not what you learned about Christ!

You certainly heard about him, and as his followers you were taught the truth that is in Jesus.

The LORD will bless them and save them; God will declare them innocent.

Our God is a God who saves; he is the LORD, our Lord, who rescues us from death.

Help us, O God, and save us; rescue us and forgive our sins for the sake of your own honor.

LORD God, my savior, I cry out all day, and at night I come before you.

During the day I call to you, my God, but you do not answer; I call at night, but get no rest.

You are my God, so be merciful to me; I pray to you all day long.

LORD God, my savior, I cry out all day, and at night I come before you.

How I love your law! I think about it all day long.

Those who listen to me will be happy--- those who stay at my door every day, waiting at the entrance to my home.

Don't be envious of sinful people; let reverence for the LORD be the concern of your life.

And yet the LORD is waiting to be merciful to you. He is ready to take pity on you because he always does what is right. Happy are those who put their trust in the LORD.

Now, will God not judge in favor of his own people who cry to him day and night for help? Will he be slow to help them?
