will wisdom be sweet to your soul.

and your hope will not be cut off. - This is how you should pray:
‘Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name.
Your kingdom come.
Your will be done

- Therefore, I tell you that every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven but blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven.
- Do not let anyone lead you astray. “Bad company corrupts good morals.”
May the Lord, our God, be with us, just as he was with our fathers; may he not leave us or abandon us. Train a child in the way he should go,
and he will not deviate from it, even in old age.Next verse!With image
