You knew when your time was near,
Lord Jesus, and you knew what to do.
Our hearts would have melted;
there would have been
no spirit in them.
You are the hope of all the earth;
you answer us with deliverance.
May evil not overcome us, Lord;
may we overcome evil with good.
If our enemies hunger, we will feed them;
if they thirst, we will give them a drink.

By awesome deeds you answer us with deliverance,

and of the farthest seas.
O God of our salvation;
you are the hope of all the ends of the earth
and of the farthest seas.
Josh. 5:1
When all the kings of the Amorites beyond the Jordan to the west, and all the kings of the Canaanites by the sea, heard that the LORD had dried up the waters of the Jordan for the Israelites until they had crossed over, their hearts melted, and there was no longer any spirit in them, because of the Israelites.
Rom. 12:20-21
No, “if your enemies are hungry, feed them; if they are thirsty, give them something to drink; for by doing this you will heap burning coals on their heads.” Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
Matt. 26:18
[Jesus] said, “Go into the city to a certain man, and say to him, ‘The Teacher says, My time is near; I will keep the Passover at your house with my disciples.’”
