- Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.
- He that hath no rule over his own spirit
is like a city that is broken down, and without walls. - For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.
- He that is slow to anger is better than the mighty;
and he that ruleth his spirit than he that taketh a city. - The rich man's wealth is his strong city,
and as an high wall in his own conceit. - Except the Lord build the house,
they labour in vain that build it:
except the Lord keep the city,
the watchman waketh but in vain. - And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem; (because he was of the house and lineage of David:) To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child.
- But I say unto you, Swear not at all; neither by heaven; for it is God's throne: Nor by the earth; for it is his footstool: neither by Jerusalem; for it is the city of the great King.
Delight thyself also in the Lord:
and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart. Ye shall walk in all the ways which the Lord your God hath commanded you, that ye may live, and that it may be well with you, and that ye may prolong your days in the land which ye shall possess.Next verse!With image
