Wisdom of Solomon 3:1-9
(1) But the souls of the righteous are in the hand of God, And no torment will touch them. (2) In the eyes of the foolish they seemed to have died; And their departure was accounted to be their hurt, (3) And their journeying away from us to be their ruin: But they are in peace. (4) For even if in the sight of men they be punished, Their hope is full of immortality; (5) And having borne a little chastening, they will receive great good; Because God made trial of them, and found them worthy of himself. (6) As gold in the furnace he proved them, And as a whole burnt offering he accepted them. (7) And in the time of their visitation they will shine forth, And as sparks among stubble they will run to and fro. (8) They will judge nations, and have dominion over peoples; And the Lord will reign over them for evermore. (9) They that trust on him will understand truth, And the faithful will abide with him in love; Because grace and mercy are to his chosen.
Psalms 23:1-6
(1) Yahweh is my shepherd: I shall lack nothing. (2) He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters. (3) He restores my soul. He guides me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake. (4) Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me. Your rod and your staff, they comfort me. (5) You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil. My cup runs over. (6) Surely goodness and loving kindness shall follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in Yahweh’s house forever.
John 6:37-40
(37) All those whom the Father gives me will come to me. He who comes to me I will in no way throw out. (38) For I have come down from heaven, not to do my own will, but the will of him who sent me. (39) This is the will of my Father who sent me, that of all he has given to me I should lose nothing, but should raise him up at the last day. (40) This is the will of the one who sent me, that everyone who sees the Son, and believes in him, should have eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day.”
