Children like olive branches (2/4)

  • Do all things without murmuring and arguing, so that you may be blameless and innocent, children of God without blemish in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, in which you shine like stars in the world. It is by your holding fast to the word of life.
  • For in Christ Jesus you are all children of God through faith. As many of you as were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ.
  • May my teaching drop like the rain,
    my speech condense like the dew;
    like gentle rain on grass,
    like showers on new growth.
  • Come now, let us argue it out,
    says the Lord:
    though your sins are like scarlet,
    they shall be like snow;
    though they are red like crimson,
    they shall become like wool.
  • 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!
  • For the Lord loves justice;
    he will not forsake his faithful ones.
    The righteous shall be kept safe forever,
    but the children of the wicked shall be cut off.
  • Keep these words that I am commanding you today in your heart. Recite them to your children and talk about them when you are at home and when you are away, when you lie down and when you rise.
  • Though the fig tree does not blossom,
    and no fruit is on the vines;
    though the produce of the olive fails
    and the fields yield no food;
    though the flock is cut off from the fold
    and there is no herd in the stalls,
    yet I will rejoice in the Lord;
    I will exult in the God of my salvation.
  • Like a city breached, without walls,
    is one who lacks self-control.
  • And a second is like it: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’
  • For a thousand years in your sight
    are like yesterday when it is past,
    or like a watch in the night.
  • I have swept away your transgressions like a cloud,
    and your sins like mist;
    return to me, for I have redeemed you.
  • You shall not abuse any widow or orphan. If you do abuse them, when they cry out to me, I will surely heed their cry; my wrath will burn, and I will kill you with the sword, and your wives shall become widows and your children orphans.
  • I stretch out my hands to you;
    my soul thirsts for you like a parched land. Selah
  • God, the Lord, is my strength;
    he makes my feet like the feet of a deer,
    and makes me tread upon the heights.
  • But ask in faith, never doubting, for the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, driven and tossed by the wind.
  • Keep his statutes and his commandments, which I am commanding you today for your own well-being and that of your descendants after you, so that you may long remain in the land that the Lord your God is giving you for all time.
  • Therefore you are great, O Lord God; for there is no one like you, and there is no God besides you, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
  • Pleasant words are like a honeycomb,
    sweetness to the soul and health to the body.
  • The words of a whisperer are like delicious morsels;
    they go down into the inner parts of the body.
  • When your eyes light upon it, it is gone;
    for suddenly it takes wings to itself,
    flying like an eagle toward heaven.
  • Discipline yourselves, keep alert. Like a roaring lion your adversary the devil prowls around, looking for someone to devour.
  • The wealth of the rich is their strong city;
    in their imagination it is like a high wall.
  • But do not ignore this one fact, beloved, that with the Lord one day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like one day.
  • Commit your way to the Lord;
    trust in him, and he will act.
    He will make your vindication shine like the light,
    and the justice of your cause like the noonday.

Who is a God like you, pardoning iniquity
and passing over the transgression
of the remnant of your possession?
He does not retain his anger forever,
because he delights in showing clemency.
