Psalms 33:22
May Your loving devotion rest on us, O LORD, as we put our hope in You.
BSB
ASV
Let thy lovingkindness, O Jehovah, be upon us, According as we have hoped in thee.
KJV
Let thy mercy, O Lord, be upon us, according as we hope in thee.
Rare words are the text's own signal of a deliberate thread: the fewer the occurrences, the more the places it appears belong together.
Here is a large and comprehensive prayer to close with. It is an appeal for mercy, which even joyful believers need; and it is sought for in a proportion which the Lord has sanctioned. "According to your faith be it unto you, "is the Master's word, and he will not fall short of the scale which he has himself selected. Yet, Master, do more than this when hope is faint, and bless us far above what we ask or even think.

Where several different paths arrive at the same place, that place is listed first: the text keeps returning to it. Every stop shows its own words, and every stop is a page.
