for from it flow the wellsprings of life. - After this, he said to the crowd, “Take care to be on your guard against all kinds of greed. Life does not depend upon an abundance of one’s possessions.”
- However, the Lord is faithful. He will strengthen you and protect you from the evil one.
- For he guards the paths of justice
and keeps watch over the way of his faithful ones. - He who guards his mouth makes his life secure,
but one who talks excessively ensures his own downfall. - If the Lord does not build the house,
those who construct it labor in vain.
If the Lord does not guard the city,
those who keep watch over it do so in vain. - Do not worry about anything, but present your needs to God in prayer and petition, with thanksgiving. Then the peace of God, which is beyond all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
- Be on your guard that you do not lose what we have worked to accomplish so that you will receive your reward in full.
- Be on guard against false prophets who come to you disguised in sheep’s clothing, but who inwardly are ravenous wolves.

- He will not permit your foot to stumble;
he who guards you will not fall asleep. - The upright are guarded by their integrity;
the treacherous are destroyed by their own duplicity. - How can a young man lead a spotless life?
By living according to your word. - Let those who love the Lord hate evil,
for he protects the souls of his faithful ones
and rescues them from the hand of the wicked.
My son, concentrate attentively on my words;
pay heed to the instructions I pass on to you.
Do not let them slip from your mind;
keep them forever in your heart. At dawn let me experience your kindness,
for in you I place my trust.
Show me the path I must walk,
for to you I lift up my soul.Next verse!With image
