Book of Proverbs: Beginning of Knowledge



Proverbs 1:2-7 (NKJV)

[2] To know wisdom and instruction,
To perceive the words of understanding,
[3] To receive the instruction of wisdom,
Justice, judgment, and equity;
[4] To give prudence to the simple,
To the young man knowledge and discretion—
[5] A wise man will hear and increase learning,
And a man of understanding will attain wise counsel,
[6] To understand a proverb and an enigma,
The words of the wise and their riddles.
[7] The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge,
But fools despise wisdom and instruction.

Book of Psalm: I have not seen the righteous forsaken



Psalm 37:23-26 (NKJV)

[23] The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord,
And He delights in his way.
[24] Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down;
For the Lord upholds him with His hand.
[25] I have been young, and now am old;
Yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken,
Nor his descendants begging bread.
[26] He is ever merciful, and lends;
And his descendants are blessed.

Book of Job: The latter days of Job



Job 42:12-17 (NKJV)


[12] Now the Lord blessed the latter days of Job more than his beginning; for he had fourteen thousand sheep, six thousand camels, one thousand yoke of oxen, and one thousand female donkeys.
[13] He also had seven sons and three daughters.
[14] And he called the name of the first Jemimah, the name of the second Keziah, and the name of the third Keren-Happuch.
[15] In all the land were found no women so beautiful as the daughters of Job; and their father gave them an inheritance among their brothers.
[16] After this Job lived one hundred and forty years, and saw his children and grandchildren for four generations.
[17] So Job died, old and full of days

Book of Esther: The Feast of Purim



Esther 9:18-23 (NKJV)

[18] But the Jews who were at Shushan assembled together on the thirteenth day, as well as on the fourteenth; and on the fifteenth of the month they rested, and made it a day of feasting and gladness.
[19] Therefore the Jews of the villages who dwelt in the unwalled towns celebrated the fourteenth day of the month of Adar with gladness and feasting, as a holiday, and for sending presents to one another.
[20] And Mordecai wrote these things and sent letters to all the Jews, near and far, who were in all the provinces of King Ahasuerus,
[21] to establish among them that they should celebrate yearly the fourteenth and fifteenth days of the month of Adar,
[22] as the days on which the Jews had rest from their enemies, as the month which was turned from sorrow to joy for them, and from mourning to a holiday; that they should make them days of feasting and joy, of sending presents to one another and gifts to the poor.
[23] So the Jews accepted the custom which they had begun, as Mordecai had written to them,
