God bless!

Isaiah 40

  18 To whom then will ye liken God? or what likeness will ye compare unto
him?
  19 The workman melteth a graven image, and the goldsmith spreadeth it over
with gold, and casteth silver chains.
  20 He that is so impoverished that he hath no oblation chooseth a tree that
will not rot; he seeketh unto him a cunning workman to prepare a graven image,
that shall not be moved.
  21 Have ye not known? have ye not heard? hath it not been told you from the
beginning? have ye not understood from the foundations of the earth?
  22 It is he that sitteth upon the circle of the earth, and the inhabitants
thereof are as grasshoppers; that stretcheth out the heavens as a curtain, and
spreadeth them out as a tent to dwell in:
  23 That bringeth the princes to nothing; he maketh the judges of the earth as
vanity.
  24 Yea, they shall not be planted; yea, they shall not be sown: yea, their
stock shall not take root in the earth: and he shall also blow upon them, and
they shall wither, and the whirlwind shall take them away as stubble.
  25 To whom then will ye liken me, or shall I be equal? saith the Holy One.
  26 Lift up your eyes on high, and behold who hath created these things, that
bringeth out their host by number: he calleth them all by names by the
greatness of his might, for that he is strong in power; not one faileth.
  27 Why sayest thou, O Jacob, and speakest, O Israel, My way is hid from the
LORD, and my judgment is passed over from my God?
  28 Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the
LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary?
there is no searching of his understanding.
  29 He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth
strength.
  30 Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly
fall:
  31 But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall
mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall
walk, and not faint.

Genesis 15

  1 After these things the word of the LORD came unto Abram in a vision,
saying, Fear not, Abram: I am thy shield, and thy exceeding great reward.
  2 And Abram said, LORD God, what wilt thou give me, seeing I go childless,
and the steward of my house is this Eliezer of Damascus?
  3 And Abram said, Behold, to me thou hast given no seed: and, lo, one born in
my house is mine heir.
  4 And, behold, the word of the LORD came unto him, saying, This shall not be
thine heir; but he that shall come forth out of thine own bowels shall be thine
heir.
  5 And he brought him forth abroad, and said, Look now toward heaven, and tell
the stars, if thou be able to number them: and he said unto him, So shall thy
seed be.
  6 And he believed in the LORD; and he counted it to him for righteousness.
  7 And he said unto him, I am the LORD that brought thee out of Ur of the
Chaldees, to give thee this land to inherit it.
  8 And he said, LORD God, whereby shall I know that I shall inherit it?
  9 And he said unto him, Take me an heifer of three years old, and a she goat
of three years old, and a ram of three years old, and a turtledove, and a young
pigeon.
  10 And he took unto him all these, and divided them in the midst, and laid
each piece one against another: but the birds divided he not.
  11 And when the fowls came down upon the carcases, Abram drove them away.
  12 And when the sun was going down, a deep sleep fell upon Abram; and, lo, an
horror of great darkness fell upon him.
  13 And he said unto Abram, Know of a surety that thy seed shall be a stranger
in a land that is not theirs, and shall serve them; and they shall afflict them
four hundred years;
  14 And also that nation, whom they shall serve, will I judge: and afterward
shall they come out with great substance.
  15 And thou shalt go to thy fathers in peace; thou shalt be buried in a good
old age.

Proverbs 15

  7 The lips of the wise disperse knowledge: but the heart of the foolish doeth
not so.
  8 The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the LORD: but the prayer
of the upright is his delight.
  9 The way of the wicked is an abomination unto the LORD: but he loveth him
that followeth after righteousness.
  10 Correction is grievous unto him that forsaketh the way: and he that hateth
reproof shall die.
  11 Hell and destruction are before the LORD: how much more then the hearts of
the children of men?
  12 A scorner loveth not one that reproveth him: neither will he go unto the
wise.
  13 A merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance: but by sorrow of the heart
the spirit is broken.
  14 The heart of him that hath understanding seeketh knowledge: but the mouth
of fools feedeth on foolishness.
  15 All the days of the afflicted are evil: but he that is of a merry heart
hath a continual feast.
  16 Better is little with the fear of the LORD than great treasure and trouble
therewith.
  17 Better is a dinner of herbs where love is, than a stalled ox and hatred
therewith.
  18 A wrathful man stirreth up strife: but he that is slow to anger appeaseth
strife.
  19 The way of the slothful man is as an hedge of thorns: but the way of the
righteous is made plain.
