Guardar o coração
Guardar o coração é o mandamento mais urgente de Provérbios. Sobre tudo o que se deve guardar, guarda o teu coração, porque dele procedem as fontes da vida.
Sobre tudo, guarda o coração
O coração é a nascente de tudo — pensamentos, desejos, decisões. Guardá-lo é proteger toda a vida espiritual e emocional.
23 Above all that must be guarded, keep thou thy heart, for, out of it, are the issues of life.
26 Oh give, my son, thy mind unto me, and let, thine eyes, observe, my ways;
1 My son, mine instruction, do not thou forget, and, my commandment, let thy heart observe;2 For, length of days and years of life, and blessedness, shall they and to thee.
45 The good man, out of the good treasure of the heart, bringeth forth that which is good; and, the wicked man, out of the wicked heart, bringeth forth that which is wicked; for, out of an overflowing of heart, speaketh, his mouth.
Coração puro e renovado
Cria em mim um coração puro, ó Deus. Os puros de coração verão a Deus — e o Espírito renova nosso interior.
10 A pure heart, create for me, O God, And, a steadfast spirit, renew within me.
8 Happy, the pure, in heart; for, they, shall, see God:
23 Search me, O GOD, and observe my heart, Try me, and observe my cares;24 And see if there be any idol-way in me, and lead me in a way age-abiding.
2 Try me, O Yahweh, and prove me, Test my reins and my heart:3 For, thy lovingkindness, hath been before mine eyes, and I have walked to and fro in thy faithfulness;
3 Thou hast tested my heart, hast made inspection by night, hast refined me until thou couldst find nothing, Had I devised evil, my mouth should not have transgressed:4 As for the workings of men, By the word of thy lips, have, I, taken heed of the paths of the violent one.5 Thou hast held fast my goings on to thy ways, My footsteps have not been shaken:
7 Fixed is my heart, O God, Fixed is my heart, I will sing, and touch the strings.
Guardar com a Palavra
Não vos conformeis com este mundo. A Palavra de Deus guardada no coração nos protege do pecado e nos direciona.
2 And be not configuring yourselves unto this age, but be transforming yourselves by the renewing of your mind, to the end ye may be proving what is the thing willed by Godthe good and acceptable and perfect.
8 This scroll of the law must not cease out of thy mouth, but thou must talk to thyself therein, day and night, that thou mayest take heed to do according to all that is written therein,for, then, shalt thou make thy way prosperous, and, then, shalt thou have good success.
10 With all my heart, have I sought thee, Suffer me not to be led astray from thy commandments.11 In my heart, have I treasured what thou hast said, to the end I may not sin against thee.
5 Thou shalt therefore love Yahweh thy God,with all thy heart and with all thy soul, and with all thy might;6 so shall these words which I am commanding thee to-day, be upon thy heart;
46 he said unto themApply your hearts unto all the words which I am witnessing against you, to-day,how that ye must command your sons to observe to do all the words of this law;
Vigilância e paz
A paz de Deus guarda nossos corações em Cristo Jesus. Chegai-vos a Deus, purificai os corações — e Ele estará convosco.
6 For nothing, be anxious, but, in everything, by your prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, let, your petitions, be made known unto God;7 And, the peace of God, which riseth above every mind, shall guard your hearts and your thoughts, in Christ Jesus.
8 Draw near unto God, and he will draw near unto you. Cleanse hands, sinners! Chasten hearts, double souls!
8 Be, ye also, patient, Stablish your hearts, because, the Presence of the Lord, hath drawn near.
1 If, therefore, ye have been raised together with the Christ, the things on high, be seeking, where, the Christ, ison the right hand of God, sitting;
