What is your favourite scripture from the old testament?

Answer 1

Hard to choose, either Job from ch. 38 on, or all of Solomon's writings.

Answer 2

If a man is caught in the act of raping a young woman who is not engaged, he must pay fifty pieces of silver to her father.  Then he must marry the young woman because he violated her, and he will never be allowed to divorce her. (Deuteronomy 22:28-29)

Rape victim marry s the attacker, and she's worth 50 silver, nice...

Answer 8

Prov. 3:5-6  "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not to your own understanding.  In all your ways acknowledge Him and He will direct your paths."

Answer 9

This is one of my favorite verses in Psalms.

It is a beautiful verse because it shows that the Creator cares for us and will make life on earth something really worthwhile

(Psalm 37:10-11) And just a little while longer, and the wicked one will be no more; And you will certainly give attention to his place, and he will not be. 11 But the meek ones themselves will possess the earth, And they will indeed find their exquisite delight in the abundance of peace.
