God bless!

Isaiah 13

  2 Lift ye up a banner upon the high mountain, exalt the voice unto them,
shake the hand, that they may go into the gates of the nobles.
  3 I have commanded my sanctified ones, I have also called my mighty ones for
mine anger, even them that rejoice in my highness.
  4 The noise of a multitude in the mountains, like as of a great people; a
tumultuous noise of the kingdoms of nations gathered together: the LORD of
hosts mustereth the host of the battle.
  5 They come from a far country, from the end of heaven, even the LORD, and
the weapons of his indignation, to destroy the whole land.
  6 Howl ye; for the day of the LORD is at hand; it shall come as a destruction
from the Almighty.
  7 Therefore shall all hands be faint, and every man's heart shall melt:
  8 And they shall be afraid: pangs and sorrows shall take hold of them; they
shall be in pain as a woman that travaileth: they shall be amazed one at
another; their faces shall be as flames.
  9 Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, cruel both with wrath and fierce anger,
to lay the land desolate: and he shall destroy the sinners thereof out of it.
  10 For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give
their light: the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, and the moon shall
not cause her light to shine.
  11 And I will punish the world for their evil, and the wicked for their
iniquity; and I will cause the arrogancy of the proud to cease, and will lay
low the haughtiness of the terrible.
  12 I will make a man more precious than fine gold; even a man than the golden
wedge of Ophir.
  13 Therefore I will shake the heavens, and the earth shall remove out of her
place, in the wrath of the LORD of hosts, and in the day of his fierce anger.

Genesis 8

  4 And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the
month, upon the mountains of Ararat.
  5 And the waters decreased continually until the tenth month: in the tenth
month, on the first day of the month, were the tops of the mountains seen.
  6 And it came to pass at the end of forty days, that Noah opened the window
of the ark which he had made:
  7 And he sent forth a raven, which went forth to and fro, until the waters
were dried up from off the earth.
  8 Also he sent forth a dove from him, to see if the waters were abated from
off the face of the ground;
  9 But the dove found no rest for the sole of her foot, and she returned unto
him into the ark, for the waters were on the face of the whole earth: then he
put forth his hand, and took her, and pulled her in unto him into the ark.
  10 And he stayed yet other seven days; and again he sent forth the dove out
of the ark;
  11 And the dove came in to him in the evening; and, lo, in her mouth was an
olive leaf pluckt off: so Noah knew that the waters were abated from off the
earth.
  12 And he stayed yet other seven days; and sent forth the dove; which
returned not again unto him any more.
  13 And it came to pass in the six hundredth and first year, in the first
month, the first day of the month, the waters were dried up from off the earth:
and Noah removed the covering of the ark, and looked, and, behold, the face of
the ground was dry.
  14 And in the second month, on the seven and twentieth day of the month, was
the earth dried.
  15 And God spake unto Noah, saying,
  16 Go forth of the ark, thou, and thy wife, and thy sons, and thy sons' wives
with thee.
  17 Bring forth with thee every living thing that is with thee, of all flesh,
both of fowl, and of cattle, and of every creeping thing that creepeth upon the
earth; that they may breed abundantly in the earth, and be fruitful, and
multiply upon the earth.
  18 And Noah went forth, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with
him:
  19 Every beast, every creeping thing, and every fowl, and whatsoever creepeth
upon the earth, after their kinds, went forth out of the ark.
  20 And Noah builded an altar unto the LORD; and took of every clean beast,
and of every clean fowl, and offered burnt offerings on the altar.
  21 And the LORD smelled a sweet savour; and the LORD said in his heart, I
will not again curse the ground any more for man's sake; for the imagination of
man's heart is evil from his youth; neither will I again smite any more every
thing living, as I have done.

Proverbs 10

  31 The mouth of the just bringeth forth wisdom: but the froward tongue shall
be cut out.
  32 The lips of the righteous know what is acceptable: but the mouth of the
wicked speaketh frowardness.

Proverbs 11

  1 A false balance is abomination to the LORD: but a just weight is his
delight.
  2 When pride cometh, then cometh shame: but with the lowly is wisdom.
  3 The integrity of the upright shall guide them: but the perverseness of
transgressors shall destroy them.
  4 Riches profit not in the day of wrath: but righteousness delivereth from
death.
  5 The righteousness of the perfect shall direct his way: but the wicked shall
fall by his own wickedness.
  6 The righteousness of the upright shall deliver them: but transgressors
shall be taken in their own naughtiness.
  7 When a wicked man dieth, his expectation shall perish: and the hope of
unjust men perisheth.
  8 The righteous is delivered out of trouble, and the wicked cometh in his
stead.
  9 An hypocrite with his mouth destroyeth his neighbour: but through knowledge
shall the just be delivered.
  10 When it goeth well with the righteous, the city rejoiceth: and when the
wicked perish, there is shouting.
  11 By the blessing of the upright the city is exalted: but it is overthrown
by the mouth of the wicked.
  12 He that is void of wisdom despiseth his neighbour: but a man of
understanding holdeth his peace.
