- The integrity of the upright shall guide them:
but the perverseness of transgressors shall destroy them. - He that walketh uprightly walketh surely:
but he that perverteth his ways shall be known. - He layeth up sound wisdom for the righteous:
he is a buckler to them that walk uprightly. - With the merciful thou wilt shew thyself merciful;
with an upright man thou wilt shew thyself upright. - Blessed are the undefiled in the way,
who walk in the law of the Lord. - The way of the Lord is strength to the upright:
but destruction shall be to the workers of iniquity. - Wherefore now let the fear of the Lord be upon you; take heed and do it: for there is no iniquity with the Lord our God, nor respect of persons, nor taking of gifts.
Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us. For the Lord your God is gracious and merciful, and will not turn away his face from you, if ye return unto him.Next verse!With image
