Sida 75 - He that gathereth in summer is a wise son: but he that sleepeth in harvest is a son that causeth shame.
Sida 148 - He that loveth silver shall not be satisfied with silver; nor he that loveth abundance with increase: this is also vanity.

When thou goest, it shall lead thee ; when thou sleepest, it shall keep thee ; and when thou awakest, it shall talk with thee.

Sida 199 - It is not in heaven, that thou shouldest say, Who shall go up for us to heaven, and bring it unto us, that we may hear it, and do it ? neither is it beyond the sea, that thou shouldest say, Who shall go over the sea for us, and bring it unto us, that we may hear it, and do it? but the word is very nigh unto thee, in thy mouth, and in thy heart, that thou mayest do it.
