Koran

  God taketh an account of all things.  2
  Haste is of the devil.  3
  Men have their metal, as of gold and silver.  4
  Paradise is for those who control their anger.  5
  The heavens and the earth, and all that is between them, think ye we have created them in jest?  6
  There is no God but God, the living, the self-subsisting.  7
  To God belongeth the east and the west; therefore, whithersoever ye turn yourselves to pray, there is the word of God, for God is omnipresent and omniscient.  8
