Löydetty 1275 Tulokset: Holy City

  • Wisdom is a surer ally than ten city magistrates; (Ecclesiastes 7, 20)

  • There was a small city once, with few men to hold it; and there was a great king that marched out against it, raised a mound and ringed it with siege-works, till it was beleaguered on every side. (Ecclesiastes 9, 14)

  • To such a city, how came relief? By the wise counsel of one poor man that had his wits about him. And was there anyone, think you, that remembered the poor man afterwards? Not one. (Ecclesiastes 9, 15)

  • Now to stir abroad, and traverse the city, searching every alley-way and street for him I love so tenderly! But for all my search I could not find him. (Song of Solomon 3, 2)

  • I met the watchmen who go the city rounds, and asked them whether they had seen my love; (Song of Solomon 3, 3)

  • As they went the city rounds, the watchmen fell in with me, that guard the walls; beat me, and left me wounded, and took away my cloak. (Song of Solomon 5, 7)

  • A holy thing it is, the spirit that brings instruction; how it shrinks away from the touch of falsehood, holds aloof from every rash design! It is a touchstone, to betray the neighbourhood of wrong-doing. (Wisdom of Solomon 1, 5)

  • a curse lies on their begetting. Blessed, rather, her lot, that childless is, yet chaste, that never knew the bed of shame; offspring she will not lack, when holy souls have their reward. (Wisdom of Solomon 3, 13)

  • Nay, let there be some eunuch that has kept his hands clear of wrong, has never harboured treasonable thought against the Lord; he too with rare gifts shall be faithfully rewarded, shall have the portion that most contents him in God’s holy place.✻ (Wisdom of Solomon 3, 14)

  • and now they are reckoned as God’s own children, now it is among his holy ones that their lot is cast.✻ (Wisdom of Solomon 5, 5)

  • How glorious is that kingdom, how beautiful that crown, which the Lord will bestow on them! His right hand is there to protect them, his holy arm to be their shield. (Wisdom of Solomon 5, 17)

  • He that would find soul’s health, holy must be and hallowed precepts observe; master these he must, if he would make good his defence. (Wisdom of Solomon 6, 11)
