Peace
If ye walk in my statutes, and keep my commandments, and do them; Then I will give you rain in due season, and the land shall yield her increase, and the trees of the field shall yield their fruit. ...I will give peace in the land, and ye shall lie down, and none shall make you afraid...

Numbers 6:24-26
Yes, may you see your children’s children. Peace be upon Israel!All of you stand today before the LORD your God... that you may enter into covenant with the LORD your God,... that He may establish you today as a people for Himself, and that He may be God to you,... so that there may not be among you man or woman or family or tribe, whose heart turns away today from the LORD our God,... and so it may not happen, when he hears the words of this curse, that he blesses himself in his heart, saying, ‘I shall have peace, even though I follow the dictates of my heart’—as though the drunkard could be included with the sober. The LORD would not spare him; for then the anger of the LORD and His jealousy would burn against that man, and every curse that is written in this book would settle on him, and the LORD would blot out his name from under heaven.

- Only God can give us peace.
