Psalms
127:1-2 - Unless the Lord builds the house, those who build it labor in vain. Unless the Lord watches over the city, the watchman stays awake in vain. It is in vain that you rise up early and go late to rest, eating the bread of anxious toil; for he gives to his beloved sleep.

145:3 - Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised, and his greatness is unsearchable.

The Lord has established his throne in the heavens, and his kingdom rules over all.
1:1-2 - Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the wicked, nor stands in the way of sinners, nor sits in the seat of scoffers; but his delight is in the law of the Lord, and on his law he meditates day and night.

The Song of Solomon
8:6-7 - Set me as a seal upon your heart, as a seal upon your arm, for love is strong as death, jealousy is fierce as the grave. Its flashes are flashes of fire, the very flame of the Lord. Many waters cannot quench love, neither can floods drown it. If a man offered for love all the wealth of his house, he would be utterly despised.
1:16 - Behold, you are beautiful, my beloved, truly delightful. Our couch is green;
6:3 - Your teeth are like a flock of ewes that have come up from the washing; all of them bear twins; not one among them has lost its young.
