Proverbs 1:29

But only a few are necessary, or rather one. Mary has chosen the good part, and it shall not be taken away from her."

For he who lives an evil life hates the light, and will not come to it, for fear that his actions should be exposed;

O! stubborn race, heathen in heart and ears, you are for ever resisting the Holy Spirit; your ancestors did it, and you are doing it still.

He preferred sharing the hardships of God's People to enjoying the short-lived pleasures of sin.

For that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the LORD:

For he who lives an evil life hates the light, and will not come to it, for fear that his actions should be exposed;

O! stubborn race, heathen in heart and ears, you are for ever resisting the Holy Spirit; your ancestors did it, and you are doing it still.

But only a few are necessary, or rather one. Mary has chosen the good part, and it shall not be taken away from her."

He preferred sharing the hardships of God's People to enjoying the short-lived pleasures of sin.

And the Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness never overpowered it.
