- Defend the poor and fatherless;
Do justice to the afflicted and needy. - Learn to do good;
Seek justice,
Rebuke the oppressor;
Defend the fatherless,
Plead for the widow. - My son, keep your father’s command,
And do not forsake the law of your mother. - A fool despises his father’s instruction,
But he who receives correction is prudent. - Do not fear, little flock, for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom.
- I came forth from the Father and have come into the world. Again, I leave the world and go to the Father.
- Whoever denies the Son does not have the Father either; he who acknowledges the Son has the Father also.
- As the living Father sent Me, and I live because of the Father, so he who feeds on Me will live because of Me.
- The Lord watches over the strangers;
He relieves the fatherless and widow;
But the way of the wicked He turns upside down. - You shall not afflict any widow or fatherless child. If you afflict them in any way, and they cry at all to Me, I will surely hear their cry; and My wrath will become hot, and I will kill you with the sword; your wives shall be widows, and your children fatherless.
- Sing to God, sing praises to His name;
Extol Him who rides on the clouds,
By His name Yah,
And rejoice before Him.
A father of the fatherless, a defender of widows,
Is God in His holy habitation. - Houses and riches are an inheritance from fathers,
But a prudent wife is from the Lord. - Jesus said to her, “Do not cling to Me, for I have not yet ascended to My Father; but go to My brethren and say to them, ‘I am ascending to My Father and your Father, and to My God and your God.’ ”
- And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand. My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of My Father’s hand. I and My Father are one.
- In My Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
- Therefore be merciful, just as your Father also is merciful.
- May the Lord our God be with us, as He was with our fathers. May He not leave us nor forsake us.
- Now to our God and Father be glory forever and ever. Amen.
- If you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love, just as I have kept My Father’s commandments and abide in His love.
- But when the Helper comes, whom I shall send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father, He will testify of Me.
- Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
- Philip said to Him, “Lord, show us the Father, and it is sufficient for us.”
- As a father pities his children,
So the Lord pities those who fear Him. - And you, fathers, do not provoke your children to wrath, but bring them up in the training and admonition of the Lord.
- Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect.
Because I delivered the poor who cried out,
The fatherless and the one who had no helper.
The blessing of a perishing man came upon me,
And I caused the widow’s heart to sing for joy.But above all these things put on love, which is the bond of perfection.
