- When hard pressed, I cried to the Lord;
he brought me into a spacious place. - You, Lord, reign forever;
your throne endures from generation to generation. - But let justice roll on like a river,
righteousness like a never-failing stream! - Every word of God is flawless;
he is a shield to those who take refuge in him. - You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly.
- Be exalted, O God, above the heavens;
let your glory be over all the earth. - The Lord loves righteousness and justice;
the earth is full of his unfailing love. - Be exalted, O God, above the heavens;
let your glory be over all the earth. - Get wisdom, get understanding;
do not forget my words or turn away from them. - So Peter was kept in prison, but the church was earnestly praying to God for him.
- So then, let us not be like others, who are asleep, but let us be awake and sober.
- A fool spurns a parent’s discipline,
but whoever heeds correction shows prudence. - But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you.
- Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
for they will be filled. - So I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh.
- Surely, Lord, you bless the righteous;
you surround them with your favor as with a shield. - You, Lord, are forgiving and good,
abounding in love to all who call to you. - And this is the testimony: God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.
- Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life.
- Sing to the Lord, for he has done glorious things;
let this be known to all the world. - But test them all; hold on to what is good, reject every kind of evil.
- For there is one God and one mediator between God and mankind, the man Christ Jesus.
- All you need to say is simply ‘Yes’ or ‘No’; anything beyond this comes from the evil one.
- For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of light.
- Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing.
Blessed is the one whom God corrects;
so do not despise the discipline of the Almighty.This is what the Lord says to Israel: “Seek me and live.”
