Job 5:19-27
He will deliver thee in six troubles; Yea, in seven there shall no evil touch thee.In famine he will redeem thee from death; And in war from the power of the sword.Thou shalt be hid from the scourge of the tongue; Neither shalt thou be afraid of destruction when it cometh.At destruction and dearth thou shalt laugh; Neither shalt thou be afraid of the beasts of the earth.For thou shalt be in league with the stones of the field; And the beasts of the field shall be at peace with thee.And thou shalt know that thy tent is in peace; And thou shalt visit thy fold, and shalt miss nothing.Thou shalt know also that thy seed shall be great, And thine offspring as the grass of the earth.Thou shalt come to thy grave in a full age, Like as a shock of grain cometh in in its season.Lo this, we have searched it, so it is; Hear it, and know thou it for thy good.

Luke 18:9-14
And he spake also this parable unto certain who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and set all others at nought:Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican.The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank thee, that I am not as the rest of men, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican.I fast twice in the week; I give tithes of all that I get.But the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote his breast, saying, God, be thou merciful to me a sinner.I say unto you, This man went down to his house justified rather than the other: for every one that exalteth himself shall be humbled; but he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.
