Bible Quotes |
23Then the lords of the
Philistines gathered them together
for to offer a great sacrifice
unto Dagon their god, and to
rejoice: for they said, Our god
hath delivered Samson our enemy
into our hand.
24And when the people saw
him, they praised their god: for
they said, Our god hath delivered
into our hands our enemy, and the
destroyer of our country, which
slew many of us.
25And it came to pass, when
their hearts were merry, that they
said, Call for Samson, that he may
make us sport. And they called for
Samson out of the prison house;
and he made them sport: and they
set him between the pillars.
(Judges 16:23-25)
12They sing to the music of
tambourine and harp; they make
merry to the sound of the flute.
13They spend their years in
prosperity and go down to the
grave in peace.
14Yet they say to God,
'Leave us alone! We have no desire
to know your ways.
15Who is the Almighty, that
we should serve him? What would we
gain by praying to him?'
(Job 21:12-15)
He that loveth pleasure shall be a
poor man: he that loveth wine and
oil shall not be rich.
(Proverbs 21:17)
I said in mine heart, Go to now, I
will prove thee with mirth,
therefore enjoy pleasure: and,
behold, this also is vanity.
(Ecclesiastes 2:1)
I gathered me also
silver and gold, and the peculiar
treasure of kings and of the
provinces: I gat me men singers
and women singers, and the
delights of the sons of men, as
musical instruments, and that of
all sorts.
(Ecclesiastes 2:8)
2It is better to go to the
house of mourning, than to go to
the house of feasting: for that is
the end of all men; and the living
will lay it to his heart. 3Sorrow
is better than laughter: for by
the sadness of the countenance the
heart is made better. 4The
heart of the wise is in the house
of mourning; but the heart of
fools is in the house of mirth.
(Ecclesiastes 7:2-4)
Rejoice, O young man, in
thy youth; and let thy heart cheer
thee in the days of thy youth, and
walk in the ways of thine heart,
and in the sight of thine eyes:
but know thou, that for all these
things God will bring thee into
judgment.
(Ecclesiastes 11:9)
11Woe to those who rise early in the
morning to run after their drinks,
who stay up late at night till
they are inflamed with wine.
12They
have harps and lyres at their
banquets, tambourines and flutes
and wine, but they have no regard
for the deeds of the LORD, no
respect for the work of his hands.
(Isaiah 5:11,12)
The seed that fell among thorns
stands for those who hear, but as
they go on their way they are
choked by life's worries, riches
and pleasures, and they do not
mature.
(Luke 8:14)
Traitors, heady,
highminded, lovers of pleasures
more than lovers of God;
(2 Timothy 3:4)
At one
time we too were foolish,
disobedient, deceived and enslaved
by all kinds of passions and
pleasures. We lived in malice and
envy, being hated and hating one
another.
(Titus 3:3)
1Go to now, ye rich men,
weep and howl for your miseries
that shall come upon you. 5Ye have lived in
pleasure on the earth, and been
wanton; ye have nourished your
hearts, as in a day of slaughter.
(James 5:1,5)
