Mark 5:37-40
37) He allowed no one to follow him, except Peter, James, and John, the brother of James.
38) He came to the synagogue ruler‘s house, and he saw an uproar, weeping, and great wailing.
39) When he had entered in, he said to them, "Why do you make an uproar and weep? The child is not dead, but is asleep."
40) They laughed him to scorn. But he, having put them all out, took the father of the child and her mother and those who were with him, and went in where the child was lying.
Hebrews 10:11-18
11) Every priest indeed stands day by day ministering and often offering the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins,
12) but he, when he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of God;
13) henceforth expecting until his enemies to be made the footstool of his feet.
14) For by one offering he has perfected forever those who are sanctified.
15) The Holy Spirit also testifies to us, for after he has said,
16) "This is the covenant that I will make with them: ‘After those days,‘ says the Lord, ‘I will put my laws on their heart, I will also write them on their mind;‘" then,
17) "I will remember their sins and their iniquities no more."
18) Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin.
1 John 4:11-21
11) Beloved, if God loved us so, we also ought to love one another.
12) No one has seen God at any time. If we love one another, God remains in us, and his love has been perfected in us.
13) By this we know that we remain in him and he in us, because he has given us of his Spirit.
14) We have seen and testify that the Father has sent the Son as the Savior of the world.
15) Whoever will confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God remains in him, and he in God.
16) We know and have believed the love which God has in us. God is love, and he who remains in love remains in God, and God remains in him.
17) In this love has been made perfect with us, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment, because as he is, even so are we in this world.
18) There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear has punishment. He who fears is not made perfect in love.
19) We love Him, because he first loved us.
20) If a man says, "I love God," and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who doesn‘t love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen?
21) This commandment have we from him, that he who loves God should also love his brother.
Proverbs 19
1) Better is the poor who walks in his integrity Than he who is perverse in his lips and is a fool.
2) It isn‘t good to have zeal without knowledge; Nor being hasty with one‘s feet and missing the way.
3) The foolishness of man subverts his way; His heart rages against Yahweh.
4) Wealth adds many friends, But the poor is separated from his friend.
5) A false witness shall not be unpunished. He who pours out lies shall not go free.
6) Many will entreat the favor of a ruler, And everyone is a friend to a man who gives gifts.
7) All the relatives of the poor shun him: How much more do his friends avoid him! He pursues them with pleas, but they are gone.
8) He who gets wisdom loves his own soul. He who keeps understanding shall find good.
9) A false witness shall not be unpunished. He who utters lies shall perish.
10) Delicate living is not appropriate for a fool, Much less for a servant to have rule over princes.
11) The discretion of a man makes him slow to anger. It is his glory to overlook an offense.
12) The king‘s wrath is like the roaring of a lion, But his favor is like dew on the grass.
13) A foolish son is the calamity of his father. A wife‘s quarrels are a continual dripping.
14) House and riches are an inheritance from fathers, But a prudent wife is from Yahweh.
15) Slothfulness casts into a deep sleep. The idle soul shall suffer hunger.
16) He who keeps the commandment keeps his soul, But he who is contemptuous in his ways shall die.
17) He who has pity on the poor lends to Yahweh; He will reward him.
18) Discipline your son, for there is hope; Don‘t be a willing party to his death.
19) A hot-tempered man must pay the penalty, For if you rescue him, you must do it again.
20) Listen to counsel and receive instruction, That you may be wise in your latter end.
21) There are many plans in a man‘s heart, But Yahweh‘s counsel will prevail.
22) That which makes a man to be desired is his kindness. A poor man is better than a liar.
23) The fear of Yahweh leads to life, then contentment; He rests and will not be touched by trouble.
24) The sluggard buries his hand in the dish; He will not so much as bring it to his mouth again.
25) Flog a scoffer, and the simple will learn prudence; Rebuke one who has understanding, and he will gain knowledge.
26) He who robs his father and drives away his mother, Is a son who causes shame and brings reproach.
27) Stop, my son, listening to instruction, And you will stray from the words of knowledge.
28) A corrupt witness mocks justice, And the mouth of the wicked gulps down iniquity.
29) Penalties are prepared for scoffers, And beatings for the backs of fools.
