because of the hope reserved for you in heaven. You have already heard about this hope in the word of truth, the gospel

This saying is trustworthy and deserving of full acceptance:“ Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners”— and I am the worst of them.

Many have undertaken to compile a narrative about the events that have been fulfilled among us,just as the original eyewitnesses and servants of the word handed them down to us.So it also seemed good to me, since I have carefully investigated everything from the very first, to write to you in an orderly sequence, most honorable Theophilus,so that you may know the certainty of the things about which you have been instructed.

A person takes joy in giving an answer; and a timely word— how good that is!

The LORD detests the plans of the one who is evil, but pleasant words are pure.

The words of the Teacher, son of David, king in Jerusalem.

Listen closely, pay attention to the words of the wise, and apply your mind to my knowledge.For it is pleasing if you keep them within you and if they are constantly on your lips.I have instructed you today— even you— so that your confidence may be in the LORD.Haven’t I written for you thirty sayings about counsel and knowledge,in order to teach you true and reliable words, so that you may give a dependable report to those who sent you?

A word spoken at the right time is like gold apples in silver settings.A wise correction to a receptive ear is like a gold ring or an ornament of gold.

Anyone with a wise heart is called discerning, and pleasant speech increases learning.Insight is a fountain of life for its possessor, but the discipline of fools is folly.The heart of a wise person instructs his mouth; it adds learning to his speech.Pleasant words are a honeycomb: sweet to the taste and health to the body.

The proverbs of Solomon son of David, king of Israel:For learning wisdom and discipline; for understanding insightful sayings;for receiving prudent instruction in righteousness, justice, and integrity;for teaching shrewdness to the inexperienced, knowledge and discretion to a young man—let a wise person listen and increase learning, and let a discerning person obtain guidance—for understanding a proverb or a parable, the words of the wise, and their riddles.

“ Truly I tell you, we speak what we know and we testify to what we have seen, but you do not accept our testimony.

Listen, for I speak of noble things, and what my lips say is right.For my mouth tells the truth, and wickedness is detestable to my lips.All the words from my mouth are righteous; none of them are deceptive or perverse.All of them are clear to the perceptive, and right to those who discover knowledge.Accept my instruction instead of silver, and knowledge rather than pure gold.

I, the Teacher, have been king over Israel in Jerusalem.
