Law (4/5)

  • The Lord said to Moses, “Come up to me on the mountain, and wait there; and I will give you the tablets of stone, with the law and the commandment, which I have written for their instruction.”
  • Thus you shall keep my commandments and observe them: I am the Lord.
  • My child, do not forget my teaching,
    but let your heart keep my commandments;
    for length of days and years of life
    and abundant welfare they will give you.
  • For this is the message you have heard from the beginning, that we should love one another.
  • I will praise you with an upright heart,
    when I learn your righteous ordinances.
  • Those who keep the commandment will live;
    those who are heedless of their ways will die.
  • Your decrees are my heritage forever;
    they are the joy of my heart.
  • Happy are those whose way is blameless,
    who walk in the law of the Lord.
  • I will make your offspring as numerous as the stars of heaven, and will give to your offspring all these lands; and all the nations of the earth shall gain blessing for themselves through your offspring, because Abraham obeyed my voice and kept my charge, my commandments, my statutes, and my laws.
  • There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin and of death.
  • For this reason he is the mediator of a new covenant, so that those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance, because a death has occurred that redeems them from the transgressions under the first covenant.
  • I will put my spirit within you, and make you follow my statutes and be careful to observe my ordinances.
  • In the path of your judgments,
    O Lord, we wait for you;
    your name and your renown
    are the soul's desire.
  • I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another.
  • Hear, my child, and accept my words,
    that the years of your life may be many.
  • If only they had such a mind as this, to fear me and to keep all my commandments always, so that it might go well with them and with their children forever!
  • I hurry and do not delay
    to keep your commandments.
  • For truly I tell you, until heaven and earth pass away, not one letter, not one stroke of a letter, will pass from the law until all is accomplished.
  • He answered, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself.”
  • Know therefore that the Lord your God is God, the faithful God who maintains covenant loyalty with those who love him and keep his commandments, to a thousand generations.
  • You have the fringe so that, when you see it, you will remember all the commandments of the Lord and do them, and not follow the lust of your own heart and your own eyes.
  • He was there with the Lord forty days and forty nights; he neither ate bread nor drank water. And he wrote on the tablets the words of the covenant, the ten commandments.
  • If you will listen carefully to the voice of the Lord your God, and do what is right in his sight, and give heed to his commandments and keep all his statutes, I will not bring upon you any of the diseases that I brought upon the Egyptians; for I am the Lord who heals you.
  • Now may the God of peace, who brought back from the dead our Lord Jesus, the great shepherd of the sheep, by the blood of the eternal covenant, make you complete in everything good so that you may do his will, working among us that which is pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen.
  • I have not departed from the commandment of his lips;
    I have treasured in my bosom the words of his mouth.
