O Lord, correct me, but with judgment: not in Your anger, lest You bring me to nothing.

The anger of the LORD will not turn back until he has executed and accomplished the intents of his mind.

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?

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

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?

I will weep and wail for the mountains and take up a lament concerning the desert pastures. They are desolate and untraveled, and the lowing of cattle is not heard. The birds of the air have fled and the animals are gone.

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