- The tongue of the just is as choice silver:
the heart of the wicked is little worth. - I ate no pleasant bread, neither came flesh nor wine in my mouth, neither did I anoint myself at all, till three whole weeks were fulfilled.
- The words of a talebearer are as wounds,
and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly. - Of his own will begat he us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures.
- Then he said unto them, Go your way, eat the fat, and drink the sweet, and send portions unto them for whom nothing is prepared: for this day is holy unto our Lord: neither be ye sorry; for the joy of the Lord is your strength.
- Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall: For so an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
Shew me thy ways, O Lord;
teach me thy paths.
