- Who can find a worthy wife?
She is far more precious than pearls. - When you search for me, you will find me. When you seek me with all your heart.
- Whoever finds his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.
- Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened to you.
- I am the gate.
Anyone who enters through me
will be saved.
He will go in and out
and will find pasture. - Therefore, I say to you: ask, and it will be given you; seek, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened to you.
- For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.
- But if you seek the Lord, your God, and you strive with all your heart and your soul, you will find him there.
- Whoever pursues righteousness and kindness
will find life and honor too. - Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence so that we may receive mercy and find grace when we are in need of help.
- In much the same manner
will wisdom be sweet to your soul.
If you find it, you will have a future,
and your hope will not be cut off. - But the Almighty we cannot find;
he is unequaled in power and judgment,
and in his righteousness he will not violate justice. - Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am meek and humble of heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.
- These are the words of the Lord of hosts:
Stand at the crossroads and look around;
ask for the ancient paths.
When you are shown where the good way lies,
walk along it and your souls will find rest.
However, they said, “We will not take it.” - Finally, find your strength in the Lord and in his mighty power.
- Enter through the narrow gate, for the gate is wide and the road broad that leads to destruction, and those who enter through it are many. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and those who find it are few in number.
- Whoever gains wisdom loves his own soul;
one who cherishes understanding will prosper. - Do not let kindness and fidelity leave you;
fasten them around your neck
and inscribe them on the tablet of your heart.
Then you will gain favor and a good name
in the sight of God and man. - The Lord is with you while you are with him. If you seek him, he will permit you to find him, but if you abandon him, he will abandon you.
- Let the words of my mouth and the thoughts of my heart
find favor in your sight,
O Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer. - This is the conclusion I have reached: it is fitting for a man to eat and drink and find satisfaction in the results of his labors under the sun during the brief span of life that God has allotted him.
- He has made everything suitable for its time, and he has given men a sense of past and future, but they never have the slightest comprehension of what God has wrought from beginning to end.
- When things are going well, be grateful for your blessings,
and in times of adversity consider this:
God has made both of them,
so that we cannot predict with confidence
what the future holds. - Moreover, the one to whom God grants wealth and possessions and the ability to enjoy them and to find contentment in his toil receives a gift from God.
- Blessed is the person who has found wisdom,
the one who has gained understanding.
With his feathers he will shelter you,
and you will take refuge under his wings;
his faithfulness serves as a protective shield.Bear one another’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ. Therefore, encourage one another and strengthen one another, as indeed you are doing.Next verse!With image
