Psalms

Chapters 29, 37, 63, 24

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.

119:105 - Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.

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

103:1 & 19 - Bless the Lord, O my soul, and all that is within me, bless his holy name!
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.

119:36-37 - Incline my heart to your testimonies, and not to selfish gain! Turn my eyes from looking at worthless things; and give me life in your ways.

23:1 - The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.

118:17 - I shall not die, but I shall live, and recount the deeds of the Lord.

2:12 - Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and you perish in the way, for his wrath is quickly kindled. Blessed are all who take refuge in him.

Proverbs

4:23 - Keep your heart with all vigilance, for from it flow the springs of life.

3:5-6 - Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.

1:32-33 - For the simple are killed by their turning away, and the complacency of fools destroys them; but whoever listens to me will dwell secure and will be at ease, without dread of disaster."

9:10 - The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and the knowledge of the Holy One is insight.

1:7 - The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge; fools despise wisdom and instruction.

Ecclesiastes

12:13 - The end of the matter; all has been heard. Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the whole duty of man.

5:1 - Guard your steps when you go to the house of God. To draw near to listen is better than to offer the sacrifice of fools, for they do not know that they are doing evil.

1:2 - Vanity of vanities, says the Preacher, vanity of vanities! All is vanity.

1:14 - I have seen everything that is done under the sun, and behold, all is vanity and a striving after wind.

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.

9:14-15 - shall we break your commandments again and intermarry with the peoples who practice these abominations?

Come, let us build the wall of Jerusalem, that we may no longer suffer derision." And I told them of the hand of my God that had been upon me for good, and also of the words that the king had spoken to me. And they said, "Let us rise up and build." So they strengthened their hands for the good work.

1:11 - O Lord, let your ear be attentive to the prayer of your servant, and to the prayer of your servants who delight to fear your name, and give success to your servant today, and grant him mercy in the sight of this man." Now I was cupbearer to the king.

4:4-5 - Hear, O our God, for we are despised.
