- I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep.
- The Lord is my shepherd;
I shall not want.
He makes me to lie down in green pastures;
He leads me beside the still waters. - Now may the God of peace who brought up our Lord Jesus from the dead, that great Shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant, make you complete in every good work to do His will, working in you what is well pleasing in His sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen.
- They shall neither hunger anymore nor thirst anymore; the sun shall not strike them, nor any heat; for the Lamb who is in the midst of the throne will shepherd them and lead them to living fountains of waters. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.
- And if you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners do the same.
- Depart from evil and do good;
Seek peace and pursue it. - Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
- A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart brings forth evil. For out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks.
- Do not be deceived: “Evil company corrupts good habits.”
- Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor what is evil. Cling to what is good.
- And who is he who will harm you if you become followers of what is good?
- Trust in the Lord, and do good;
Dwell in the land, and feed on His faithfulness. - Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good;
Blessed is the man who trusts in Him! - Let each of us please his neighbor for his good, leading to edification.
- Oh, give thanks to the Lord, for He is good!
For His mercy endures forever. - Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, to which you were also called and have confessed the good confession in the presence of many witnesses.
- Then you will understand righteousness and justice,
Equity and every good path. - Test all things; hold fast what is good. Abstain from every form of evil.
- The Lord is good,
A stronghold in the day of trouble;
And He knows those who trust in Him. - A merry heart does good, like medicine,
But a broken spirit dries the bones. - Behold, how good and how pleasant it is
For brethren to dwell together in unity! - The young lions lack and suffer hunger;
But those who seek the Lord shall not lack any good thing. - He who finds a wife finds a good thing,
And obtains favor from the Lord. - How beautiful upon the mountains
Are the feet of him who brings good news,
Who proclaims peace,
Who brings glad tidings of good things,
Who proclaims salvation,
Who says to Zion,
“Your God reigns!” - O my soul, you have said to the Lord,
“You are my Lord,
My goodness is nothing apart from You.”
For
“He who would love life
And see good days,
Let him refrain his tongue from evil,
And his lips from speaking deceit.
Let him turn away from evil and do good;
Let him seek peace and pursue it.”Behold the proud,
His soul is not upright in him;
But the just shall live by his faith.
