Heart

23Keep your heart with all diligence, for out of it is the wellspring of life.

19Like water reflects a face, so a man’s heart reflects the man.

3Let your beauty be not just the outward adorning of braiding the hair, and of wearing jewels of gold, or of putting on fine clothing;

4but in the hidden person of the heart, in the incorruptible adornment of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God very precious.

9The heart is deceitful above all things, and it is exceedingly corrupt: who can know it?

10I, Yahweh, search the mind, I try the heart, even to give every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his doings.

4May He grant you your heart’s desire, and fulfill all your counsel.

13You shall seek me, and find me, when you shall search for me with all your heart.

3Don’t let kindness and truth forsake you. Bind them around your neck. Write them on the tablet of your heart.

4So you will find favor, and good understanding in the sight of God and man.

5Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding.

6In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.

10Create in me a clean heart, O God. Renew a right spirit within me.

7But Yahweh said to Samuel, “Don’t look on his face, or on the height of his stature; because I have rejected him: for I see not as man sees; for man looks at the outward appearance, but Yahweh looks at the heart.”

37Jesus said to him, “‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’

4Also delight yourself in Yahweh, and he will give you the desires of your heart.

7Let each man give according as he has determined in his heart; not grudgingly, or under compulsion; for God loves a cheerful giver.

22A cheerful heart makes good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones.

1My son, don’t forget my teaching; but let your heart keep my commandments:

2for length of days, and years of life, and peace, will they add to you.

8The wise in heart accept commandments, but a chattering fool will fall.

24Be strong, and let your heart take courage, all you who hope in Yahweh.

10With my whole heart, I have sought you. Don’t let me wander from your commandments.

14Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in your sight, Yahweh, my rock, and my redeemer.

5Only take diligent heed to do the commandment and the law which Moses the servant of Yahweh commanded you, to love Yahweh your God, to walk in all his ways, to keep his commandments, to hold fast to him, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul.”

12So teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.

23For most certainly I tell you, whoever may tell this mountain, ‘Be taken up and cast into the sea,’ and doesn’t doubt in his heart, but believes that what he says is happening; he shall have whatever he says.

111I have taken your testimonies as a heritage forever, for they are the joy of my heart.

2Blessed are those who keep his statutes, who seek him with their whole heart.

7I will give thanks to you with uprightness of heart, when I learn your righteous judgments.
