[1] Clap your hands, all you peoples;
shout to God with loud songs of joy.
[2] For the LORD, the Most High, is awesome,
a great king over all the earth.
[3] He subdued peoples under us,
and nations under our feet.
[4] He chose our heritage for us,
the pride of Jacob whom he loves. Selah
[5] God has gone up with a shout,
the LORD with the sound of a trumpet.
[6] Sing praises to God, sing praises;
sing praises to our King, sing praises.
[7] For God is the king of all the earth;
sing praises with a psalm.
[8] God is king over the nations;
God sits on his holy throne.
[9] The princes of the peoples gather
as the people of the God of Abraham.
For the shields of the earth belong to God;
he is highly exalted.

Matthew 6:25-34
[25]"Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your
life, what you will eat or what you will drink, or about your body, what you
will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing?
[26]Look at the birds of the air; they neither sow nor reap nor gather into
barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than
they? [27]And can any of you by worrying add a single hour to your span of
life? [28]And why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the
field, how they grow; they neither toil nor spin, [29]yet I tell you, even
Solomon in all his glory was not clothed like one of these. [30]But if God so
clothes the grass of the field, which is alive today and tomorrow is thrown
into the oven, will he not much more clothe you - you of little faith?
[31]Therefore do not worry, saying, 'What will we eat?' or 'What will we
drink?' or 'What will we wear?' [32]For it is the Gentiles who strive for all
these things; and indeed your heavenly Father knows that you need all these
things. [33]But strive first for the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and
all these things will be given to you as well.
