Most of these verses were written to people in real trouble: exiles, prisoners, a small church under pressure. They encourage by reminding the reader what is still true, which is why they carry weight when “you’ve got this” doesn’t. The first group is for your own bad days, the second for when you are close to quitting, and the third is for sending to someone else. All are from the public-domain World English Bible, so you can copy them anywhere.

Numbers 6:24-26 (the blessing that starts “Yahweh bless you, and keep you”) and Romans 15:13 (“may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace”) both read as a wish for the other person, which suits a message or card. ### Which verse is good for someone about to give up? Galatians 6:9 says not to be weary in doing good, “for we will reap in due season, if we don’t give up.” 2 Corinthians 4:16-18 is longer and speaks to people who feel worn out. ### Is Jeremiah 29:11 a promise to me? It was first written to Israelites in exile in Babylon, promising a future after seventy years. Christians have long read it as showing God’s character towards his people, which is why it is shared so widely, but it is worth reading Jeremiah 29:4-14 for the setting. ## More Bible verses by topic * [ Bible verses about strength 31 verses · strength in hard times, strength when you feel weak, be strong and courageous ](https://quote.video/bible-verses/strength) * [ Bible verses about hope 25 verses · hope as an anchor, hope while you wait, hope beyond this life ](https://quote.video/bible-verses/hope) * [ Bible verses about anxiety 25 verses · when you are worried, when you are afraid, for a restless mind at night ](https://quote.video/bible-verses/anxiety) * [ Bible verses about friendship 24 verses · what a good friend is, being a good friend, choosing friends wisely ](https://quote.video/bible-verses/friendship) * [ Love ](https://quote.video/bible-verses/love) * [ Healing ](https://quote.video/bible-verses/healing) * [ Faith ](https://quote.video/bible-verses/faith) * [ Peace ](https://quote.video/bible-verses/peace) * [ Forgiveness ](https://quote.video/bible-verses/forgiveness) * [ Relationships ](https://quote.video/bible-verses/relationships) * [ Life ](https://quote.video/bible-verses/life) * [ Family ](https://quote.video/bible-verses/family) * [ Marriage ](https://quote.video/bible-verses/marriage) * [ Grief ](https://quote.video/bible-verses/grief) * [ Gratitude ](https://quote.video/bible-verses/gratitude) * [ Birthday ](https://quote.video/bible-verses/birthday) ## About the text Every verse is quoted from the World English Bible, a modern English translation its editors have placed in the public domain, as published by [Project Gutenberg (ebook #8294)](https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/8294).
