Loved Ones

My lovers and my friends stand aloof from my sore; and my kinsmen stand afar off.

Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.

Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another.

Women received their dead raised to life again: and others were tortured, not accepting deliverance; that they might obtain a better resurrection:

• David
• Friends

Lover and friend hast thou put far from me, and mine acquaintance into darkness.

Precious in the sight of the LORD is the death of his saints.

• Bread

It is vain for you to rise up early, to sit up late, to eat the bread of sorrows: for so he giveth his beloved sleep.

That thy beloved may be delivered; save with thy right hand, and hear me.

As he saith also in Osee, I will call them my people, which were not my people; and her beloved, which was not beloved.
