Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart.

Now therefore amend your ways and your doings, and obey the voice of the LORD your God, and the LORD will repent of the evil which he has pronounced against you.

The wise men are ashamed, they are dismayed and taken: lo, they have rejected the word of the Lord; and what wisdom is in them?

Oh that I had in the wilderness a lodging-place of wayfaring men!

Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart.

If you would get a contented life, do not grasp too much of the world, do not take in more of the business of the world than God calls you to.

Who has spoken and it came to pass, unless the Lord has commanded it? Is it not from the mouth of the Most High that good and bad come?
