| Job 5:17-27 (from the Holy Bible [Christianity]) |
| 17 Blessed is the man whom God corrects, so do not despise the discipline of the Almighty. |
| 18 For he wounds, but he also binds up; he injures, but his hands also heal. |
| 19 From six calamities he will rescue you; in seven no harm will befall you. |
| 20 In famine he will ransom you from death, and in battle from the stroke of the sword. |
| 21 You will be protected from the lash of the tongue, and need not fear when destruction comes. |
| 22 You will laugh at destruction and famine, and need not fear the beasts of the earth. |
| 23 For you will have a covenant with the stones of the field, and the wild animals will be at peace with you. |
| 24 You will know that your tent is secure; you will take stock of your property and find nothing missing. |
| 25 You will know that your children will be many, and your descendants like grass of the earth. |
| 26 You will come to the grave in full vigor, like sheaves gathered in season. |
| 27 We have examined this, and it is true. So hear it and apply it to yourself. |
| Surah: Ayah number 11 (from the Holy Quran [Islam]) |
| But Allah will deliver them from the evil of that day, and will shed over them a light of beauty and (blissful) joy. |
| Sukhavagga: Verses 206 (from the Dhammapada [Buddhism]) |
| Happy is one, who beholds the holy ones. To live with the holy ones is ever pleasant. It would be pleasant if one never comes across a fool. |
