1 Kings 11:9

Keep your heart with all diligence, for out of it is the wellspring of life.

The good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings out that which is good, and the evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart brings out that which is evil, for out of the abundance of the heart, his mouth speaks.

The heart is deceitful above all things and it is exceedingly corrupt. Who can know it?

He who guards his mouth guards his soul. One who opens wide his lips comes to ruin.

For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, sexual sins, thefts, false testimony, and blasphemies.

Listen, my son, and be wise, and keep your heart on the right path!

One who trusts in himself is a fool; but one who walks in wisdom is kept safe.

Watch and pray, that you may not enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.”

Only be careful, and keep your soul diligently, lest you forget the things which your eyes saw, and lest they depart from your heart all the days of your life; but make them known to your children and your children’s children—

Wisdom is supreme. Get wisdom. Yes, though it costs all your possessions, get understanding.

My son, let them not depart from your eyes. Keep sound wisdom and discretion:

looking carefully lest there be any man who falls short of the grace of God, lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and many be defiled by it,

Thorns and snares are in the path of the wicked: whoever guards his soul stays from them.

A gracious woman obtains honor, but violent men obtain riches.

There is a grievous evil which I have seen under the sun: wealth kept by its owner to his harm.

In Gibeon, Yahweh appeared to Solomon in a dream by night; and God said, “Ask for what I should give you.”

Wine is a mocker and beer is a brawler. Whoever is led astray by them is not wise.

Prostitution, wine, and new wine take away understanding.

He struck of the men of Beth Shemesh, because they had looked into Yahweh’s ark, he struck fifty thousand seventy of the men. Then the people mourned, because Yahweh had struck the people with a great slaughter.

When the mourning was past, David sent and took her home to his house, and she became his wife, and bore him a son. But the thing that David had done displeased Yahweh.

Why have you despised Yahweh’s word, to do that which is evil in his sight? You have struck Uriah the Hittite with the sword, and have taken his wife to be your wife, and have slain him with the sword of the children of Ammon.

He said, “Now hear my words. If there is a prophet among you, I, Yahweh, will make myself known to him in a vision. I will speak with him in a dream.

for Yahweh your God among you is a jealous God, lest the anger of Yahweh your God be kindled against you, and he destroy you from off the face of the earth.

For that would turn away your sons from following me, that they may serve other gods. So Yahweh’s anger would be kindled against you, and he would destroy you quickly.

When they had gone through the region of Phrygia and Galatia, they were forbidden by the Holy Spirit to speak the word in Asia.

This you know, that all who are in Asia turned away from me, of whom are Phygelus and Hermogenes.

for Demas left me, having loved this present world, and went to Thessalonica; Crescens to Galatia; and Titus to Dalmatia.

as do Mark, Aristarchus, Demas, and Luke, my fellow workers.

Yahweh’s anger burned against Moses, and he said, “What about Aaron, your brother, the Levite? I know that he can speak well. Also, behold, he is coming out to meet you. When he sees you, he will be glad in his heart.

Yahweh said to Aaron, “Go into the wilderness to meet Moses.” He went, and met him on God’s mountain, and kissed him.

He said to them, “I am one hundred twenty years old today. I can no more go out and come in. Yahweh has said to me, ‘You shall not go over this Jordan.’

Yahweh appeared to Solomon by night, and said to him, “I have heard your prayer, and have chosen this place for myself for a house of sacrifice.

Now when they had departed, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream, saying, “Arise and take the young child and his mother, and flee into Egypt, and stay there until I tell you, for Herod will seek the young child to destroy him.”

He said to them, “What do you want me to do for you?”

Now when they had passed through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where there was a Jewish synagogue.

I had no relief for my spirit, because I didn’t find Titus, my brother, but taking my leave of them, I went out into Macedonia.

Nevertheless, he who comforts the lowly, God, comforted us by the coming of Titus,

At my first defense, no one came to help me, but all left me. May it not be held against them.

to Titus, my true child according to a common faith: Grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ our Savior.

Moses said to Aaron, “What did these people do to you, that you have brought a great sin on them?”

Yahweh struck the people, because of what they did with the calf, which Aaron made.

Yahweh’s anger burned against them; and he departed.

Also in Horeb you provoked Yahweh to wrath, and Yahweh was angry with you to destroy you.

Yahweh was angry enough with Aaron to destroy him. I prayed for Aaron also at the same time.

Yahweh said to him, “This is the land which I swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, saying, ‘I will give it to your offspring.’ I have caused you to see it with your eyes, but you shall not go over there.”

They have not walked in my ways, to do that which is right in my eyes, and to keep my statutes and my ordinances, as David his father did.

God was displeased with this thing; therefore he struck Israel.

You, Solomon my son, know the God of your father, and serve him with a perfect heart and with a willing mind; for Yahweh searches all hearts, and understands all the imaginations of the thoughts. If you seek him, he will be found by you; but if you forsake him, he will cast you off forever.

But Jesus answered, “You don’t know what you are asking. Are you able to drink the cup that I am about to drink, and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?” They said to him, “We are able.”
