than gold. She is more precious than jewels and nothing you desire can
compare with her…)

b Matthew 11:28-30 (“Come to me, all you that are weary and are carrying
heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn
from me; for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your
souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”)
c Proverbs 4:25-27 (Let your eyes look directly forward, and your gaze be
straight before you. Keep straight the path of your feet, and all your ways
will be sure. Do not swerve to the right or to the left; turn your foot away
from evil.)
d Isaiah 10:1-2 (Ah, you who make iniquitous decrees, who write oppressive

people of their right, that widows may be your spoil, and that you may make
the orphans your prey!)

e Matthew 23:25-28 (“Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For
you clean the outside of the cup and of the plate, but inside they are full of
greed and self-indulgence. You blind Pharisee! First clean the inside of the
cup, so that the outside also may become clean. “Woe to you, scribes and
Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like whitewashed tombs, which on the
outside look beautiful, but inside they are full of the bones of the dead and
of all kinds of filth. So you also on the outside look righteous to others, but
inside you are full of hypocrisy and lawlessness.)
f Matthew 23:33 (You snakes, you brood of vipers! How can you escape
being sentenced to hell?)
