“Search me, O God, and know my heart: Try me, and know my thoughts: And see if there be any wicked way in me, And lead me in the way everlasting.”
Psalm 139:23-24 KJV
“He that is surety for a stranger shall smart for it: And he that hateth suretiship is sure.
A gracious woman retaineth honour: And strong men retain riches. The merciful man doeth good to his own soul: But he that is cruel troubleth his own flesh.
The wicked worketh a deceitful work: But to him that soweth righteousness shall be a sure reward.
As righteousness tendeth to life: So he that pursueth evil pursueth it to his own death.
They that are of a froward heart are abomination to the LORD: But such as are upright in their way are his delight.
Though hand join in hand, the wicked shall not be unpunished: But the seed of the righteous shall be delivered.
As a jewel of gold in a swine’s snout, So is a fair woman which is without discretion.
The desire of the righteous is only good: But the expectation of the wicked is wrath.
There is that scattereth, and yet increaseth; And there is that withholdeth more than is meet, but it tendeth to poverty.”
Proverbs 11:15-24 KJV
