Esther 3:5 When Haman saw that Mordecai would not bow down or show him respect, he was filled with rage.

Lamentations 3:22-27
The faithful love of the LORD never ends!
His mercies never cease.
Great is his faithfulness;
his mercies begin afresh each morning.
I say to myself, “The LORD is my inheritance;
therefore, I will hope in him!”

The LORD is good to those who depend on him,
to those who search for him.
So it is good to wait quietly
for salvation from the LORD.
And it is good for people to submit at an early age
to the yoke of his discipline:

Proverbs 11:7
Light is sweet;
how pleasant to see a new day dawning.

Ecclesiastes 4:6
And yet,
“Better to have one handful with quietness
than two handfuls with hard work
and chasing the wind.”

Song of Songs 8:6, 7
Place me like a seal over your heart,
like a seal on your arm.
For love is as strong as death,
its jealousy as enduring as the grave.
Love flashes like fire,
the brightest kind of flame.
Many waters cannot quench love,
nor can rivers drown it.
If a man tried to buy love with all his wealth,
his offer would be utterly scorned.
