“1 Do not let your fasts be with the hypocrites, for they fast on Mondays and Thursdays, but you fast on Wednesdays and Fridays. 2 And do not pray as the hypocrites, but as the Lord commanded in His good news, pray thus: “Our Father who is in Heaven, hallowed be Your Name, Your Kingdom come, Your will be done, as in Heaven so also on earth; give us today our daily bread, and forgive us our debt as we forgive our debtors, and do not lead us into trial, but deliver us from the evil [one], for Yours is the power and the glory for all time.” 3 Pray thus three times a day.”

“Do not rise up from the presence of an insolent man, || Lest he lie in wait as an ambush for your mouth.”
― Covenant Press, The 120-Book Holy Bible and Apocrypha Collection: Literal Standard Version

“[It is] good for me that I have been afflicted, || That I might learn Your statutes. 72 The Law of Your mouth [is] better to me || Than thousands of gold and silver! 73 [Yod] Your hands made me and establish me, || Cause me to understand, and I learn Your commands.”
