"The LORD is far from the wicked, But He hears the prayer of the righteous. The light of the eyes rejoices the HEART, And a good report makes the bones HEALTHY. The ear that hears the rebukes of life Will abide among the wise." PROVERBS 15:29-31
"Come now, and let us reason together," says the Lord, "Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be white as snow; though they are red like crimson, they shall be as wool. If you are willing and obedient you shall eat the good of the land; but if you refuse and rebel, you shall be devoured by the sword"; for the mouth of the Lord has spoken."
Isaiah 1:18-20
