1 Peter 3: 8-9

Love each other as brothers and sisters. Be tenderhearted and keep a humble attitude. Don't repay evil for evil. Don't retaliate with insults when people insult you. Instead pay them back with blessings. That is what God has call you to do and He will grant you his blessings.

 

                                   Let humility describes who you are 

 

 

 

 

Powerful scriptures and eye opener indeed.

[Novus]

Proverbs 30:7-9 (NLT)

O God, I beg two favors from you;
let me have them before I die.
First, help me never to tell a lie.
Second, give me neither poverty nor riches!
Give me just enough to satisfy my needs.

For if I grow rich, I may deny you and say, “Who is the Lord?”

And if I am too poor, I may steal and thus insult God’s holy name.

[Novus]

Proverbs 30:10 (NLT)

Never slander a worker to the employer, or the person will curse you, and you will pay for it.

Slander definition - the action or crime of making a false spoken statement damaging to a person's reputation.

Proverbs 30: 11-14 (NLT)

Some people curse their father
and do not thank their mother.
They are pure in their own eyes,
but they are filthy and unwashed.
They look proudly around,
casting disdainful glances.
They have teeth like swords
and fangs like knives.
They devour the poor from the earth
and the needy from among humanity.

Very well said

Proverbs 30:15-16 (NLT)

The leech has two suckers
that cry out, “More, more!”

There are three things that are never satisfied—
no, four that never say, “Enough!”:
the grave,
the barren womb,
the thirsty desert,
the blazing fire.

[Novus]

Proverbs 30:17 parallel with Exodus 20:12 and Ephesians 6:1-4 (NLT)

The eye that mocks a father
and despises a mother’s instructions
will be plucked out by ravens of the valley
and eaten by vultures.

“Honor your father and mother. Then you will live a long, full life in the land the Lord your God is giving you.

Children, obey your parents because you belong to the Lord, for this is the right thing to do. “Honor your father and mother.” This is the first commandment with a promise: If you honor your father and mother, “things will go well for you, and you will have a long life on the earth.”

Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger by the way you treat them. Rather, bring them up with the discipline and instruction that comes from the Lord.

Proverbs 30:18-19 parallel with Ephesians 5:21, 25-30, 31b, 32a, 33 (NLT)

There are three things that amaze me—
no, four things that I don’t understand:
how an eagle glides through the sky,
how a snake slithers on a rock,
how a ship navigates the ocean,
how a man loves a woman.

And further, submit to one another out of reverence for Christ. ... For husbands, this means love your wives, just as Christ loved the church. He gave up his life for her to make her holy and clean, washed by the cleansing of God’s word. He did this to present her to himself as a glorious church without a spot or wrinkle or any other blemish. Instead, she will be holy and without fault. In the same way, husbands ought to love their wives as they love their own bodies. For a man who loves his wife actually shows love for himself. No one hates his own body but feeds and cares for it, just as Christ cares for the church. And we are members of his body.

... the two are united into one.” This is a great mystery, ...

So again I say, each man must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband.
