Proverbs 10:25

⁵he who doesn’t lend out his money for usury, nor take a bribe against the innocent. He who does these things shall never be shaken.

⁹Before your pots can feel the heat of the thorns, he will sweep away the green and the burning alike.

²⁴“Everyone therefore who hears these words of mine and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock. ²⁵The rain came down, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it didn’t fall, for it was founded on the rock. ²⁶Everyone who hears these words of mine and doesn’t do them will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand. ²⁷The rain came down, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it fell—and its fall was great.”

³A man shall not be established by wickedness, but the root of the righteous shall not be moved.

²⁷when calamity overtakes you like a storm, when your disaster comes on like a whirlwind, when distress and anguish come on you.

²⁰being built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the chief cornerstone;

⁷The wicked are overthrown, and are no more, but the house of the righteous shall stand.

¹⁸How often is it that they are as stubble before the wind, as chaff that the storm carries away?

¹⁹laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold of eternal life.

¹⁹However, God’s firm foundation stands, having this seal: “The Lord knows those who are his,”and, “Let every one who names the name of the Lord^[+] from unrighteousness.”
