⁹ “As for you, my son Solomon, ^(A)know the God of your father, and serve Him ^(B)with a loyal heart and with a willing mind; for ^(C)the Lord searches all hearts and understands all the intent of the thoughts. ^(D)If you seek Him, He will be found by you; but if you forsake Him, He will ^(E)cast you off forever.

³⁵ (yes, ^(A)a sword will pierce through your own soul also), that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed.”

¹³ But ^(A)all things that are ^[a]exposed are made manifest by the light, for whatever makes manifest is light.
