- God blesses those who hunger and thirst for justice,
for they will be satisfied. - So be on your guard, not asleep like the others. Stay alert and be clearheaded.
- Don’t be misled—you cannot mock the justice of God. You will always harvest what you plant.
- Jesus told them, “This is the only work God wants from you: Believe in the one he has sent.”
- If you forgive those who sin against you, your heavenly Father will forgive you.
- But if you refuse to forgive others, your Father will not forgive your sins.
- Direct your children onto the right path,
and when they are older, they will not leave it. - Grandchildren are the crowning glory of the aged;
parents are the pride of their children. - One should be kind to a fainting friend,
but you accuse me without any fear of the Almighty. - Well then, since God’s grace has set us free from the law, does that mean we can go on sinning? Of course not!
- Put on salvation as your helmet, and take the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
- In my desperation I prayed, and the Lord listened;
he saved me from all my troubles. - The godly are showered with blessings;
the words of the wicked conceal violent intentions. - So obey the commands of the Lord your God by walking in his ways and fearing him.
- The Lord merely spoke,
and the heavens were created.
He breathed the word,
and all the stars were born. - Give to anyone who asks; and when things are taken away from you, don’t try to get them back.
- But when you had eaten and were satisfied,
you became proud and forgot me. - So humble yourselves under the mighty power of God, and at the right time he will lift you up in honor.
- So letting your sinful nature control your mind leads to death. But letting the Spirit control your mind leads to life and peace.
- For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord.
- Jesus told him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me.”
- Put on all of God’s armor so that you will be able to stand firm against all strategies of the devil.
- Sin is no longer your master, for you no longer live under the requirements of the law. Instead, you live under the freedom of God’s grace.
- So we can say with confidence,
“The Lord is my helper,
so I will have no fear.
What can mere people do to me?” - And if you do good only to those who do good to you, why should you get credit? Even sinners do that much!
