Morning:
My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness;
and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips:
when I remember thee upon my bed,
and meditate on thee in the night watches.
How precious are thy thoughts unto me, O God! how great
is the sum of them! How sweet are thy words unto my taste!
yea, sweeter than honey to my mouth! Let him kiss me with the
kisses of his mouth: for thy love is better than wine.
Whom have I in heaven but thee? and there is none upon
earth that I desire beside thee. Thou art fairer than the
children of men.
As the apple tree among the trees of the wood, so is my
beloved among the sons. I sat down under his shadow with great
delight, and his fruit was sweet to my taste. He brought me to
the banqueting house, and his banner over me was love. His
countenance is as Lebanon, excellent as the cedars. His mouth
is most sweet: yea, he is altogether lovely. This is my
beloved, and this is my friend.

Evening:
Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation.
I have seen his ways, and will heal him: I will lead him
also, and restore comforts unto him and to his mourners.
Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though
your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though
they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool. Return, ye
backsliding children, and I will heal your backslidings.
Behold, we come unto thee; for thou art the LORD our God. I
will hear what God the LORD will speak: for he will speak peace
unto his people, and to his saints: but let them not turn again
to folly.
Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:
who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy
diseases. He restoreth my soul. O LORD, I will praise thee:
though thou wast angry with me, thine anger is turned away, and
thou comfortedst me.
Hold thou me up, and I shall be safe.
I, even I, am he that blotteth out thy transgressions for
mine own sake, and will not remember thy sins.
