Tobit 7:15; 8:19
View in: NAB Vulg LXX
715And taking the right hand of his daughter, he gave it into the right hand of Tobias, saying: The God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob be with you, and may he join you together, and fulfill his blessing in you.
819And thou hast taken pity upon two only children. Make them, O Lord, bless thee more fully: and to offer up to thee a sacrifice of thy praise, and of their health, that all nations may know, that thou alone art God in all the earth.
Psalm 128:1
View in: NAB Vulg LXX Hebrew
1Blessed are all they that fear the Lord: that walk in his ways.
Ephesians 5:22-33
View in: NAB Vulg Greek
22Let women be subject to their husbands, as to the Lord:
23Because the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ is the head of the church. He is the saviour of his body.
24Therefore as the church is subject to Christ, so also let the wives be to their husbands in all things.
25Husbands, love your wives, as Christ also loved the church, and delivered himself up for it:
26That he might sanctify it, cleansing it by the laver of water in the word of life:
27That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle, or any; such thing; but that it should be holy, and without blemish.
28So also ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife, loveth himself.
29For no man ever hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, as also Christ doth the church:
30Because we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones.
31For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife, and they shall be two in one flesh.
32This is a great sacrament; but I speak in Christ and in the church.
33Nevertheless let every one of you in particular love his wife as himself: and let the wife fear her husband.
Psalm 19:3
View in: NAB Vulg LXX Hebrew
3Day to day uttereth speech, and night to night sheweth knowledge.
Psalm 133:3
View in: NAB Vulg LXX Hebrew
3As the dew of Hermon, which descendeth upon mount Sion. For there the Lord hath commandeth blessing, and life for evermore.
Matthew 19:3-6
View in: NAB Vulg Greek
3And there came to him the Pharisees tempting him, and saying: Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for every cause?
4Who answering, said to them: Have ye not read, that he who made man from the beginning, Made them male and female? And he said:
5For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife, and they two shall be in one flesh.
6Therefore now they are not two, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let no man put asunder.
Psalm 31:15-16
View in: NAB Vulg LXX Hebrew
15But I have put my trust in thee, O Lord: I said: Thou art my God.
16My lots are in thy hands. Deliver me out of the hands of my enemies; and from them that persecute me.
Psalm 128:4,6
View in: NAB Vulg LXX Hebrew
4Behold, thus shall the man be blessed that feareth the Lord.
6And mayest thou see thy children's children, peace upon Israel.
