- Who is wise and understanding among you? Let them show it by their good life, by deeds done in the humility that comes from wisdom.

the one who cherishes understanding will soon prosper. - Commit your way to the Lord;
trust in him and he will do this:
He will make your righteous reward shine like the dawn,
your vindication like the noonday sun. - Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.
- For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will find it.
- Don’t let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith and in purity.
- Do everything without grumbling or arguing, so that you may become blameless and pure, “children of God without fault in a warped and crooked generation.” Then you will shine among them like stars in the sky as you hold firmly to the word of life.
- The Lord has done it this very day;
let us rejoice today and be glad. - Whoever finds their life will lose it, and whoever loses their life for my sake will find it.

and beyond cure. Who can understand it?

to reward each person according to their conduct,
according to what their deeds deserve.” - My son, do not forget my teaching,

for they will prolong your life many years
and bring you peace and prosperity. - This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him.

- For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain.
- Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes?

for by them you have preserved my life. - Give careful thought to the paths for your feet
and be steadfast in all your ways. - Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit.

my lips will glorify you.
I will praise you as long as I live,
and in your name I will lift up my hands. - Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”
