- This is the commandment
we have received from him:
whoever loves God
must also love his brother. - For Christ is the fulfillment of the Law for the justification of all who believe.
- If you love me,
you will keep my commandments. - For sin is no longer to have any power over you, since you are not under the Law but under grace.
- What then should we say? That the Law is sinful? Absolutely not! Yet if it had not been for the Law, I would not have known what sin was. I would not have known what covet is if the Law had not said, “You shall not covet.”
- The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the Law.
- Observe the ordinances of the Lord, your God, walking in his ways and keeping his statutes, his commandments, his ordinances, and what he witnessed in writing in the law of Moses. In this way you will prosper in whatever you do and wherever you go.
- Do not judge, so that you in turn may not be judged.
- “You shall not commit adultery, You shall not kill, You shall not steal, You shall not covet,” and every other commandment are all summed up in this: “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.”
- He proclaimed his covenant to you which he ordered you to fulfill, the Ten Commandments, that he wrote upon two tablets of stone.
- Those who love your law have great peace;
they encounter no stumbling blocks. - Do not make gods from silver or from gold instead of me. You will not make them for yourselves.
- All those who keep his commandments abide in him,
and he abides in them.
And the proof that he abides in us
is the Spirit that he has given us. - If you keep my commandments,
you will remain in my love,
just as I have kept my Father’s commandments
and remain in his love. - Love cannot result in any harm to the neighbor; therefore, love is the fulfillment of the Law.
- However, the one who looks intently at the perfect law of freedom and perseveres—not forgetting what he has heard but putting it into practice—will be blessed in everything he does.
- A wise man will heed commandments,
but a babbling fool will come to grief. - I rejoice in following your statutes
more than I would rejoice in endless riches. - We have sinned and done what is wrong, we have acted wickedly and rebelled, we have rejected your commandments and your laws.
- You shall take heed to observe the commandments of the Lord, your God, and the decrees and statutes that he has given to you.
- Hear, O Israel, the Lord, our God, is Lord alone. You shall love the Lord, your God, with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your might.
- Does God give you the Spirit and work mighty deeds among you because you have kept the Law or because you believed what you have heard?
- This is the end of my teaching.
All has been heard.
Fear God and keep his commandments,
for that is the responsibility of everyone. - There is only one Lawgiver and Judge, the one who is able to save or to destroy. Who then are you to pass judgment on a neighbor?
- Alleluia.
Blessed is the man who fears the Lord,
who greatly delights in his precepts.
