[2 Nephi 4:15–35] Eternal trust

O Lord, I have trusted in thee,
_and I will trust in thee forever.

I will not put my trust in the arm of flesh;
_for I know that cursed is he
_that putteth his trust in the arm of flesh.

Yea, cursed is he that putteth his trust in man or
_maketh flesh his arm.

Yea, I know that God will give liberally
_to him that asketh.

Yea, my God will give me, if I ask not amiss;
_therefore I will lift up my voice unto thee;

Yea, I will cry unto thee, my God,
_the rock of my righteousness.

Behold, my voice shall forever
_ascend up unto thee,
_my rock and mine everlasting God.

Amen.
