- Do not forsake your friend or a friend of your family,
and do not go to your relative’s house when disaster strikes you—
better a neighbor nearby than a relative far away. - The prudent see danger and take refuge,
but the simple keep going and pay the penalty. - As iron sharpens iron,
so one person sharpens another. - As water reflects the face,
so one’s life reflects the heart.
For we brought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out of it. But if we have food and clothing, we will be content with that. Ah, Sovereign Lord, you have made the heavens and the earth by your great power and outstretched arm. Nothing is too hard for you.Next verse!With image
