But now, strengthen my hands.”Nehemiah 6:14“Remember, my God, Tobiah and Sanballat according to these their works, and also the prophetess Noadiah, and the rest of the prophets, that would have put me in fear.”Nehemiah 9:28But after they had rest, they did evil again before you; therefore left you them in the hand of their enemies, so that they had the dominion over them; yet when they returned, and cried to you, you heard from heaven; and many times you delivered them according to your mercies,Nehemiah 9:29and testified against them, that you might bring them again to your law.

Blessed be the name of Yahweh.”Job 1:22In all this, Job did not sin, nor charge God with wrongdoing.Job 2:9Then his wife said to him, “Do you still maintain your integrity?

Let all that makes black the day terrify it.Job 3:6As for that night, let thick darkness seize on it. Let it not rejoice among the days of the year.
