“Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it” (Proverbs 22:6).

“Who laid the foundations of the earth, that it should not be removed for ever” (Psalm 104:5).

“And Cain went out from the presence of the LORD, and dwelt in the land of Nod, on the east of Eden” (Genesis 4:16).

“Surely the wrath of man shall praise thee: the remainder of wrath shalt thou restrain” (Psalm 76:10).
