⁴ ¶ But he himself went a day’s journey into the wilderness, and came and sat down under a juniper tree: and he requested for himself that he might die; and said, It is enough; now, O LORD, take away my life; for I [am] not better than my fathers. ⁵ And as he lay and slept under a juniper tree, behold, then an angel touched him, and said unto him, Arise [and] eat. ⁶ And he looked, and, behold, [there was] a cake baken on the coals, and a cruse of water at his head. And he did eat and drink, and laid him down again. ⁷ And the angel of the LORD came again the second time, and touched him, and said, Arise [and] eat; because the journey [is] too great for thee. ⁸ And he arose, and did eat and drink, and went in the strength of that meat forty days and forty nights unto Horeb the mount of God.

⁸ [We are] troubled on every side, yet not distressed; [we are] perplexed, but not in despair; ⁹ Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed;

²¹ This I recall to my mind, therefore have I hope. ²² ¶ [It is of] the LORD’s mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. ²³ [They are] new every morning: great [is] thy faithfulness. ²⁴ The LORD [is] my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him.

¶ Come unto me, all [ye] that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
