and meditating in his Temple. - Take care of any widow who has no one else to care for her.
- Jesus told them, “This is the only work God wants from you: Believe in the one he has sent.”
- No one lights a lamp and then covers it with a bowl or hides it under a bed. A lamp is placed on a stand, where its light can be seen by all who enter the house.
- “I am the Alpha and the Omega—the beginning and the end,” says the Lord God. “I am the one who is, who always was, and who is still to come—the Almighty One.”
- How great you are, O Sovereign Lord! There is no one like you. We have never even heard of another God like you!

No one who takes refuge in him will be condemned. - A newly married man must not be drafted into the army or be given any other official responsibilities. He must be free to spend one year at home, bringing happiness to the wife he has married.
- For every house has a builder, but the one who built everything is God.
- Paul said, “John’s baptism called for repentance from sin. But John himself told the people to believe in the one who would come later, meaning Jesus.”
- A person standing alone can be attacked and defeated, but two can stand back-to-back and conquer. Three are even better, for a triple-braided cord is not easily broken.
- He will not let you stumble;
the one who watches over you will not slumber. - The very essence of your words is truth;
all your just regulations will stand forever. - Then the Lord God made a woman from the rib, and he brought her to the man.
“At last!” the man exclaimed.

and flesh from my flesh!

but you accuse me without any fear of the Almighty. - What is the price of five sparrows—two copper coins? Yet God does not forget a single one of them. And the very hairs on your head are all numbered. So don’t be afraid; you are more valuable to God than a whole flock of sparrows.

but those who are trustworthy can keep a confidence. - Accept other believers who are weak in faith, and don’t argue with them about what they think is right or wrong.
