- The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
- And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.
- The integrity of the upright shall guide them:
but the perverseness of transgressors shall destroy them. - He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.

and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother. - For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.
- Touching the Almighty, we cannot find him out:
he is excellent in power, and in judgment,

- For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection: Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.
- For the Lord loveth judgment,
and forsaketh not his saints;
they are preserved for ever:
but the seed of the wicked shall be cut off. - The words of a wise man's mouth are gracious;
but the lips of a fool will swallow up himself. - A froward man soweth strife:
and a whisperer separateth chief friends. - The way of the Lord is strength to the upright:
but destruction shall be to the workers of iniquity. - For as many as have sinned without law shall also perish without law: and as many as have sinned in the law shall be judged by the law.
- The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
Delight thyself also in the Lord:
and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.
