Acts 20 (KJV)

19 Serving the Lord with all humility of mind, and with many tears, and temptations, which befell me by the lying in wait of the Jews:
20 And how I kept back nothing that was profitable unto you, but have shewed you, and have taught you publicly, and from house to house,
21 Testifying both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, repentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ.


24 But none of these things move me, neither count I my life dear unto myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry, which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God.


28 Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.


29 For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock.
30 Also of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse (unreasonable) things, to draw away disciples after them.


32 And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified (made holy).

1 Peter 5 (KJV)

2 Feed the flock of God which is among you, taking the oversight thereof, not by constraint (a limitation or restriction.), but willingly; not for filthy lucre (money, esp. when regarded as sordid or distasteful or gained in a dishonorable way.), but of a ready mind;
3 Neither as being lords over God's heritage, but being examples to the flock.
4 And when the chief Shepherd shall appear, ye shall receive a crown of glory that fadeth not away.




5 Likewise, ye younger, submit yourselves unto the elder. Yea, all of you be subject (concerned) one to another, and be clothed with humility: for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble.




8 Be sober, be vigilant (attentive); because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:

Proverbs 18 (KJV)

5 It is not good to accept the person of the wicked, to overthrow the righteous in judgment.




9 He also that is slothful in his work is brother to him that is a great waster.




10 The name of the Lord is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe.




11 The rich man's wealth is his strong city, and as an high wall in his own conceit.




12 Before destruction the heart of man is haughty, and before honour is humility.




13 He that answereth a matter before he heareth it, it is folly and shame unto him.




14 The spirit of a man will sustain his infirmity (physical or mental weakness); but a wounded spirit who can bear?





15 The heart of the prudent (careful) getteth knowledge; and the ear of the wise seeketh knowledge.




19 A brother offended is harder to be won than a strong city: and their contentions (arguments) are like the bars of a castle.





21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.




22 Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favour of the Lord.





23 The poor useth intreaties (beg, beseech); but the rich answereth roughly.




24 A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother.
