10 Give ear, O my son, and let your heart be open to my sayings; and long life will be yours.
26 My flesh and my heart are wasting away: but God is the Rock of my heart and my eternal heritage.
4 Make your steps clear to me, O Lord; give me knowledge of your ways.
3 He who keeps a watch on his mouth keeps his life; but he whose lips are open wide will have destruction.
36 What profit has a man if he gets all the world with the loss of his life?
13 My flesh was made by you, and my parts joined together in my mother's body.
14 I will give you praise, for I am strangely and delicately formed; your works are great wonders, and of this my soul is fully conscious.
15 My frame was not unseen by you when I was made secretly, and strangely formed in the lowest parts of the earth.
16 Your eyes saw my unformed substance; in your book all my days were recorded, even those which were purposed before they had come into being.
8 He who gets wisdom has love for his soul: he who keeps good sense will get what is truly good.
15 And he said to them, Take care to keep yourselves free from the desire for property; for a man's life is not made up of the number of things which he has.
13 Who has wisdom and good sense among you? let him make his works clear by a life of gentle wisdom.
38 He who has faith in me, out of his body, as the Writings have said, will come rivers of living water.
25 So I say to you, Take no thought for your life, about food or drink, or about clothing for your body. Is not life more than food, and the body more than its clothing?
26 See the birds of heaven; they do not put seeds in the earth, they do not get in grain, or put it in store-houses; and your Father in heaven gives them food. Are you not of much more value than they?
27 And which of you by taking thought is able to make himself a cubit taller?
6 Truly, blessing and mercy will be with me all the days of my life; and I will have a place in the house of the Lord all my days.
31 The grey head is a crown of glory, if it is seen in the way of righteousness.
3 And this is eternal life: to have knowledge of you, the only true God, and of him whom you have sent, even Jesus Christ.
12 So give us knowledge of the number of our days, that we may get a heart of wisdom.
7 The Lord will keep you safe from all evil; he will take care of your soul.
8 The Lord will keep watch over your going out and your coming in, from this time and for ever.
10 The measure of our life is seventy years; and if through strength it may be eighty years, its pride is only trouble and sorrow, for it comes to an end and we are quickly gone.
10 For it is said, Let the man who has a love of life, desiring to see good days, keep his tongue from evil and his lips from words of deceit:
11 And let him be turned from evil and do good; searching for peace and going after it with all his heart.
20 I have been put to death on the cross with Christ; still I am living; no longer I, but Christ is living in me; and that life which I now am living in the flesh I am living by faith, the faith of the Son of God, who in love for me, gave himself up for me.
20 I have been put to death on the cross with Christ; still I am living; no longer I, but Christ is living in me; and that life which I now am living in the flesh I am living by faith, the faith of the Son of God, who in love for me, gave himself up for me.
6 Jesus said to him, I am the true and living way: no one comes to the Father but by me.
23 And keep watch over your heart with all care; so you will have life.
23 And keep watch over your heart with all care; so you will have life.
27 The fear of the Lord is a fountain of life, by which one may be turned from the nets of death.
14 Let your desire be for peace with all men, and to be made holy, without which no man may see the Lord;
11 And that you may take pride in being quiet and doing your business, working with your hands as we gave you orders;
12 That you may be respected by those who are outside, and may have need of nothing.
35 And this was the answer of Jesus: I am the bread of life. He who comes to me will never be in need of food, and he who has faith in me will never be in need of drink.
12 Give honour to your father and to your mother, so that your life may be long in the land which the Lord your God is giving you.
33 I will make songs to the Lord all my life; I will make melody to my God while I have my being.
4 \39:3\My heart was burning in my breast; while I was deep in thought the fire was lighted; then I said with my tongue,
5 \39:4\Lord, give me knowledge of my end, and of the measure of my days, so that I may see how feeble I am.
6 \39:5\You have made my days no longer than a hand's measure; and my years are nothing in your eyes; truly, every man is but a breath. (Selah.)
2 And let not your behaviour be like that of this world, but be changed and made new in mind, so that by experience you may have knowledge of the good and pleasing and complete purpose of God.
7 (For we are walking by faith, not by seeing,)
7 Take your rest in the Lord, waiting quietly for him; do not be angry because of the man who does well in his evil ways, and gives effect to his bad designs.
12 There is a blessing on the man who undergoes testing; because, if he has God's approval, he will be given the crown of life, which the Lord has said he will give to those who have love for him.
7 And the Lord God made man from the dust of the earth, breathing into him the breath of life: and man became a living soul.
21 He who goes after righteousness and mercy will get life, righteousness, and honour.
23 Whatever you do, do it readily, as to the Lord and not to men;
24 Being certain that the Lord will give you the reward of the heritage: for you are the servants of the Lord Christ.
4 One prayer have I made to the Lord, and this is my heart's desire; that I may have a place in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, looking on his glory, and getting wisdom in his Temple.
25 Jesus said to her, I am myself that day and that life; he who has faith in me will have life even if he is dead;
26 And no one who is living and has faith in me will ever see death. Is this your faith?
17 He who takes note of teaching is a way of life, but he who gives up training is a cause of error.
23 For the reward of sin is death; but what God freely gives is eternal life in Jesus Christ our Lord.
16 In giving you orders today to have love for the Lord your God, to go in his ways and keep his laws and his orders and his decisions, so that you may have life and be increased, and that the blessing of the Lord your God may be with you in the land where you are going, the land of your heritage.
10 The thief comes only to take the sheep and to put them to death: he comes for their destruction: I have come so that they may have life and have it in greater measure.
1 For everything there is a fixed time, and a time for every business under the sun.
15 Take care then how you are living, not as unwise, but as wise;
16 Making good use of the time, because the days are evil.
34 And turning to the mass of people with his disciples, he said to them, If any man has the desire to come after me, let him give up all other desires, and take up his cross and come after me.
35 Whoever has a desire to keep his life, will have it taken from him; and whoever gives up his life because of me and the good news, will keep it.
36 What profit has a man if he gets all the world with the loss of his life?
37 And what would a man give in exchange for his life?
38 Whoever has a feeling of shame because of me and my words in this false and evil generation, the Son of man will have a feeling of shame because of him, when he comes in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.
9 \36:8\The delights of your house will be showered on them; you will give them drink from the river of your pleasures.
12 \34:11\Come, children, give attention to me; I will be your teacher in the fear of the Lord.
13 \34:12\What man has a love of life, and a desire that his days may be increased so that he may see good?
14 \34:13\Keep your tongue from evil, and your lips from words of deceit.
3 \31:2\Let your ear be turned to me; take me quickly out of danger; be my strong Rock, my place of strength where I may be safe.
93 I will ever keep your orders in mind; for in them I have life.
6 Let everything which has breath give praise to the Lord. Let the Lord be praised.
19 Like face looking at face in water, so are the hearts of men to one another.
