“Remember also your Creator
in the days of your youth,
before the evil days come
and the years approach
when you will say, ‘I have
no pleasure in them’;
before the sun and the light, the moon
and the stars are darkened….”
—Ecclesiastes 1:1-2

“Do not repay evil for evil or reviling for reviling,
but on the contrary, bless, for to this you were called,
that you may obtain a blessing.” —1 Peter 3:9
