“How long, O simple ones, will you love being simple? How long will scoffers delight in their scoffing and fools hate knowledge?
-
Let not steadfast love and faithfulness forsake you; bind them around your neck; write them on the tablet of your heart.
-
for the Lord reproves him whom he loves, as a father the son in whom he delights.
-
Do not forsake her, and she will keep you; love her, and she will guard you.
-
a lovely deer, a graceful doe. Let her breasts fill you at all times with delight; be intoxicated always in her love.
-
Come, let us take our fill of love till morning; let us delight ourselves with love.
-
I love those who love me, and those who seek me diligently find me.
-
granting an inheritance to those who love me, and filling their treasuries.
-
but he who fails to find me injures himself; all who hate me love death.”
-
Do not reprove a scoffer, or he will hate you; reprove a wise man, and he will love you.
-
Hatred stirs up strife, but love covers all offenses.
-
Whoever loves discipline loves knowledge, but he who hates reproof is stupid.
-
Whoever spares the rod hates his son, but he who loves him is diligent to discipline him.
-
Do they not go astray who devise evil? Those who devise good meet steadfast love and faithfulness.
-
The way of the wicked is an abomination to the Lord, but he loves him who pursues righteousness.
-
Better is a dinner of herbs where love is than a fattened ox and hatred with it.
-
By steadfast love and faithfulness iniquity is atoned for, and by the fear of the Lord one turns away from evil.
-
Righteous lips are the delight of a king, and he loves him who speaks what is right.
-
Whoever covers an offense seeks love, but he who repeats a matter separates close friends.
-
A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.
-
Whoever loves transgression loves strife; he who makes his door high seeks destruction.
-
Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruits.
-
Whoever gets sense loves his own soul; he who keeps understanding will discover good.
-
What is desired in a man is steadfast love, and a poor man is better than a liar.
-
Many a man proclaims his own steadfast love, but a faithful man who can find?
