Sivu 46 - Seek ye the Lord while he may be found, call upon him while he is near...
Sivu 115 - The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?
Sivu 324 - Fear ye not me? Saith the LORD: will ye not tremble at my presence, which have placed the sand for the bound of the sea by a perpetual decree, that it cannot pass it: and though the waves thereof toss themselves, yet can they not prevail; though they roar, yet can they not pass over it?
Sivu 151 - I went by the field of the slothful, and by the vineyard of the man void of understanding ; and, lo, it was all grown over with thorns, and nettles had covered the face thereof, and the stone wall thereof was broken down.
Sivu 77 - There the wicked cease from troubling; and there the weary be at rest. There the prisoners rest together; they hear not the voice of the oppressor. The small and great are there; and the servant is free from his master.
Sivu 201 - Who is the Lord?" or lest I be poor, and steal, and take the name of my God in vain.
Sivu 18 - And being but one. she can do all things: and remaining in herself, she maketh all things new: and in all ages entering into holy souls, she maketh them friends of God , and prophets, For God loveth none but him that dwelleth with wisdom.
Sivu 183 - He that hath no rule over his own spirit is like a city that is broken down, and without walls.
Sivu 111 - And when he had thus spoken, he kneeled down, and prayed with them all. And they all wept sore, and fell on Paul's neck, and kissed him, Sorrowing most of all for the words which he spake, that they should see his face no more.
Sivu 152 - Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep ; so shall thy poverty come as one that travelleth, and thy want as an armed man.
