31 Therefore whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.
1 And in Antioch some among the existing church were prophets and teachers. (such as Barnabas, and Simeon who was called Niger, and Lucius of Cyrene, and Manaen, the foster-brother of Herod the tetrarch) and Saul.
2 [As] they ministered to the Lord and fasted, the Holy Spirit said, So, then, separate Barnabas and Saul to Me for the work to which I have called them.
3 Then having fasted and prayed and laid hands on them, they let [them] go.
5 Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and lean not to your own understanding.
6 In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths.
33 The lot is cast into the lap, but the whole disposing of it [is] from the LORD.
9 If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us [our] sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
1 He that separates himself seeks [his own] desire; he breaks out against all sound wisdom.
2 A fool has no delight in understanding, but only that his heart may lay itself bare.
3 When the wicked comes, scorn also comes, and with shame comes reproach.
4 The words of a man's mouth are like deep waters; the fountain of wisdom [is like] a flowing stream.
5 [It is] not good to favor the person of the wicked, [nor] to overthrow the righteous in judgment.
6 A fool's lips enter into argument, and his mouth calls for strokes.
7 A fool's mouth [is] his destruction, and his lips [are] the snare of his soul.
8 The words of a talebearer [are] as wounds, and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly.
9 Also he who is slack in his work is brother to a great destroyer.
10 The name of the LORD [is] a strong tower; the righteous man runs into it and is safe.
11 The rich man's wealth [is] his strong city, and as a high wall in his own mind.
12 Before shattering, the heart of man is proud, and before honor [is] humility.
13 If one answers a matter before he hears, it [is] folly and shame to him.
14 The spirit of a man will nourish his sickness, but a wounded spirit who can bear?
5 But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, [who] gives to all liberally and with no reproach, and it shall be given to him.
16 All Scripture [is] God-breathed, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness,
7 having come to Mysia, they attempted to go into Bithynia. But the Spirit did not allow them.
9 And his wife said to him, Do you still hold to your integrity? Curse God and die!
10 But he said to her, You speak as one of the foolish ones speak. What? Shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil? In all this Job did not sin with his lips.
14 And this is the confidence that we have toward Him, that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us.
17 that the man of God may be perfected, thoroughly furnished to every good work.
1 Therefore since we also are surrounded with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight and the sin which so easily besets [us], and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,
11 For I know the purposes which I am purposing for you, says the LORD; purposes of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.
5 In Gibeon the LORD appeared to Solomon in a dream by night. And God said, Ask what I shall give you!
6 And Solomon said, You have shown to Your servant David my father great mercy, according as he walked before You in truth and in righteousness and in uprightness of heart with You. And You have kept this great kindness for him, that You have given him a son to sit on his throne, as [it is] today.
7 And now, O LORD my God, You have made Your servant king instead of David my father. And I [am] a little child; I do not know to go out or come in!
8 And Your servant [is] in the midst of Your people whom You have chosen, a numerous people who cannot be numbered nor counted for multitude.
9 And give to Your servant an understanding heart, to judge Your people, to discern between good and bad. For who is able to judge this, Your great people?
10 And the word was good in the eyes of the LORD, that Solomon had asked this thing.
11 And God said to him, Because you have asked this thing, and have not asked for yourself long life, and have not asked riches for yourself, nor have asked the life of your enemies, but have asked for yourself understanding to judge justly,
12 behold, I have done according to your words. Lo, I have given you a wise and an understanding heart, so that there was none like you before you, and after you none shall arise like you.
14 Where [there is] no wisdom, the people fall; but in the multitude of wise men [there is] safety.
6 In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths.
