NASB | 1 Corinthians 9:9 For it is written in the Law of Moses, "YOU SHALL NOT MUZZLE THE OX WHILE HE IS THRESHING." God is not concerned about oxen, is He? |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 Corinthians 9:9 For it is written in the Law of Moses, "YOU SHALL NOT MUZZLE AN OX WHILE IT IS TREADING OUT THE GRAIN [to keep it from eating the grain]." Is it [only] for oxen that God cares? [Deut 25:4] |
Bible Question: A friend of mine and I have been looking for a particular verse that she knows of but cant find it. Its about "worry". We have found many verses instructing us not to worry about things, but is there a verse that says its ok to worry for other people? Like I worry for my friends well-being, worry that they dont fall into sin, etc? She believes there is and I want to help find the verse she is thinking of. Thanks for any help! |
Bible Answer: Dear Ben, May I suggest the below scripture which I think could fit to your question concerning worry for friends spiritual well-being or even sinning. The verse though meant for Job's children, however, I think it can also apply today concerning our caring for friends and remember them in our prayers. Job 1:4 to 5 His sons used to take turns holding feasts in their homes, and they would invite their three sisters to eat and drink with them. When a period of feasting had run its course, Job would send and have them purified. Early in the morning he would sacrifice a burnt offering for each of them, thinking, "Perhaps my children have sinned and cursed God in their hearts." This was Job's regular custom. Hope this help. In Christ Azure |
