Saul thought, “I’ll pin David to the wall.”
He threw the spear at David twice,
but David dodged and got away both times.
–1 Samuel 18:11 (CEV)–

God hath not given us the spirit of fear;
but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.
–2 Timothy 1:7 (KJV)–
1 Blessed is the person who obeys the law of the Lord.
They don’t follow the advice of evil people.
They don’t make a habit of doing what sinners do.
They don’t join those who make fun of the Lord and his law.
2 Instead, the law of the Lord gives them joy.
They think about his law day and night.
3 That kind of person is like a tree that is planted near a stream of water.
It always bears its fruit at the right time.
Its leaves don’t dry up.
Everything godly people do turns out well.
4 Sinful people are not like that at all.
They are like straw
that the wind blows away.
5 When the Lord judges them, their life will come to an end.
Sinners won’t have any place among those who are godly.
6 The Lord watches over the lives of godly people.
But the lives of sinful people will lead to their death.
Fools despise the wisdom of the Word of God; and because some of them go about their lives to make a lot of money, this confirms them in their foolishness, but their souls are destroyed for it. So forsake the foolish, and live for God; and go in the way of understanding. The way of a fool is right in his own eyes, a way of deceit, but deep within his spirit he knows he’s wrong with God, and he’s not right. Fools consider it abominable for them to depart from evil. He that walks with wise men will be wise: but a companion of fools will be destroyed. Fools make fun of the concept of sin: but among the righteous there is favor from God. A fool has no delight in understanding the Word of God, but only that his heart may know itself to its full extent. Better is the poor that walks in integrity, than the man that is perverse in his lips, and is a fool. Speak not in the ears of a fool: for he will despise the wisdom of your words. This scorner is an abomination to men. Such a fool as this has even said in his heart, “There is no God.” Fools are corrupt, they’ve done abominable works, none of them do anything good at all. And fools because of their transgressions, are afflicted.
Proverbs 1:7, 32; 9:6; 12:15; 13:19-20;
14:8-9; 18:2; 19:1; 23:9; 24:9; Psalm 14:1.

I sought for a man among them,
that should make up the hedge,
and stand in the gap before me for the land,
that I should not destroy it: but I found none.
–Ezekiel 22:30 (KJV)–
The smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever:
and they have no rest day nor night.
–Revelation 14:11 (KJV)–

Hanging out at the local high school
Making a whole lot of little fools
I know about peer pressure
Tell all the boys to watch out for me
I’ve learned my free lesson
Warn all the boys
They better watch out for me
Tell ’em no, tell ’em no
Tell ’em no, tell ’em no
Tell ’em no
Giving in is the name of the game
Rock the boat, all you get is pain
I know about peer pressure
Dog-eat-dog, but I’m beginning to see
I’ve learned my free lesson
Tell all the boys
They better watch out for me
Tell ’em no, tell ’em no
Tell ’em no, tell ’em no
Tell ’em no
I won’t bow, peer pressure
Tell all the boys to watch out for me
I’m learning free lessons
That puts a fire burning inside of me
Oh, peer pressure
Oh
Oh, peer pressure
Oh
Tell ’em no, tell ’em no
Tell ’em no
Tell ’em no, tell ’em no
Tell ’em no
I won’t bow
I won’t bow
