tattoo

i want a text tattoo like this. perhaps a biblical verse (reference) relating to cause and effect, or in more colloquial terms, 'what goes around, comes around' or 'you reap what you sow': -
"Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. For he who sows to his flesh will of the flesh reap corruption, but he who sows to the Spirit will of the Spirit reap everlasting life." - Galatians 6:7-8

"And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose." - Romans 8:28

"The wind blows to the south and goes around to the north; around and around goes the wind, and on its circuits the wind returns. All streams run to the sea, but the sea is not full; to the place where the streams flow, there they flow again." - Ecclesiastes 1:6-7
needless to say, i need to do a little more research into this before i permanently ink a biblical verse on my body. also considering having the verse reference written in aramaic script (Jesus' primary language, although whether or not it was hebrew or aramaic is debatable). may even have the tattoo written in a rotating circle to reflect the 'going around-ness', depending on which verse i choose. we shall see.
