- You shall observe the Sabbath by keeping it holy, as the Lord, your God, has commanded you. You are to labor on six days, doing all of your work then. The seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord, your God. You shall not do any work, neither you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your manservant, nor your maidservant, nor your ox, nor your ass, nor your cattle, nor even the foreigner living in your town. Thus your manservant and maidservant can rest as well.

- Treasures obtained by wicked means profit nothing,
but a righteous life brings delivery from death. - As for you, teach what is consistent with sound doctrine.
- I will praise you in sincerity of heart
as I ponder your righteous judgments. - You can eat any water creature that has fins and scales; those you can eat. Whatever does not have fins or scales, you are not to eat. It is unclean for you.
- Rather, let justice flow like a river,
and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream. - Riches will be of no avail on the day of wrath,
but righteousness delivers from death. - God abides in anyone who acknowledges
that Jesus is the Son of God,
and that person abides in God. - If we live by the Spirit, let us also be guided by the Spirit.

you will fill me with joy in your presence
and everlasting delights at your right hand. - If we claim that we have fellowship with him

as he himself is in the light,
then we have fellowship with one another,
and the blood of Jesus his Son
purifies us from all sin. - At the time that discipline is received, it always seems painful rather than pleasant, but afterward it yields a harvest of peace and uprightness to those who have been trained by it.

- The Lord, your God, is in your midst,
a warrior and a savior.
He will rejoice over you with gladness
and renew you through his love.
He will exult over you with shouts of joy.

See what lovethe Father has bestowed on us,
enabling us to be called the children of God,
and that is what we are.
