- The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge;
fools are those who despise wisdom and instruction. - 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.”
- Jesus then said,
“I will remain with you
only for a short time longer,
and then I shall return
to him who sent me.” - O Lord, grant us salvation.
O Lord, grant us success.
Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.
We bless you from the house of the Lord. - With our eyes fixed on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith. For the sake of the joy that lay before him, he endured the cross, ignoring its shame, and is now seated at the right hand of the throne of God.
- Do not assert that the past was better than the present,
for such a statement is not a sign of wisdom. - Whoever believes in me,
as Scripture has said,
‘Streams of living water
shall flow from within him.’ - If you abide in me
and my words abide in you,
you may ask for whatever you wish,
and it will be done for you. - Now we know that if the earthly tent in which we live is destroyed, we have a dwelling prepared for us by God, a dwelling in the heavens, not made with human hands, that will be eternal.
- Be on guard against false prophets who come to you disguised in sheep’s clothing, but who inwardly are ravenous wolves.
- Why do you take note of the splinter in your brother’s eye but do not notice the wooden plank in your own eye?
- To those who seek after glory and honor and immortality by persevering in good works, he will grant eternal life.
- You are a place of refuge for me;
you preserve me from trouble
and surround me with songs of deliverance. Selah - Beloved,
let us love one another,
because love is from God.
Everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. - In everything, deal with others as you would like them to deal with you. This is the Law and the Prophets.
- May the God of perseverance and encouragement grant that you may live in harmony with one another, following in the example of Jesus Christ.
- I urge you, brethren, to watch out for those who incite dissensions and obstacles in opposition to the teaching that you have learned. Take care to avoid them.
- The one who provides seed for sowing and bread for food will supply and multiply your seed and increase the harvest of your righteousness.
- My deliverance and my glory depend on God;
he is my mighty rock and my refuge. - In Christ
and through his blood
we have redemption
and the forgiveness of our sins.
In accord with the riches of his grace. - However, to avoid the temptation to immorality, each man should have his own wife and each woman her own husband.
- You will again show us compassion
and wash away our guilt;
you will cast all our sins
into the depths of the sea. - May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that you may grow rich in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.
- Everyone who hears these words of mine and acts in accordance with them will be like a wise man who constructed his house on a rock foundation.
- 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 perfect in every respect so that you may do his will. And may he enable us to achieve what is pleasing to him through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen.
