but he that is hasty of spirit exalteth folly. - Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil.

- He that is slow to anger is better than the mighty;
and he that ruleth his spirit than he that taketh a city. - Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for him:

because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass. - Wait on the Lord: be of good courage,
and he shall strengthen thine heart:
wait, I say, on the Lord. - The Lord shall fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace.

in his favour is life:
weeping may endure for a night,
but joy cometh in the morning. - My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O Lord;
in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up. - And therefore will the Lord wait,
that he may be gracious unto you,
and therefore will he be exalted,
that he may have mercy upon you:
for the Lord is a God of judgment:
blessed are all they that wait for him. - The Lord is merciful and gracious,
slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy. - But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.

and not your garments,
and turn unto the Lord your God:

slow to anger, and of great kindness,
and repenteth him of the evil. - The hope of the righteous shall be gladness:
but the expectation of the wicked shall perish.
For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise.And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come. Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.Next verse!With image
