Quotes

Isaiah

• When you stretch out your hands,

I will hide my eyes from you;

even though you make many prayers,

I will not listen;

your hands are full of blood.

Wash yourselves; make yourselves clean;

remove the evil of your doings

from before my eyes;

cease to do evil,

learn to do good;

seek justice,

rescue the oppressed,

defend the orphan,

plead for the widow.

• Isaiah 1:15-17

• I am about to create a new heavens and a new earth;

the former things shall not be remembered

or come to mind.

But be glad and rejoice forever

in what I am creating;

for I am about to create Jerusalem as a joy,

and its people as a delight.

• Isaiah 65:17-18

• They shall build houses and inhabit them;

they shall plant vineyards and eat their fruit.

They shall not build and another inhabit;

they shall not plant and another eat.

• Isaiah 65:21-22

Sirach

• Nothing is more wicked than one who loves money, for such a person puts his own soul up for sale.
  • Sirach 10:8
