- And that to you, O Lord, belongs steadfast love.
For you will render to a man
according to his work. - Let not steadfast love and faithfulness forsake you;
bind them around your neck;
write them on the tablet of your heart.
So you will find favor and good success
in the sight of God and man. - With his mouth the godless man would destroy his neighbor,
but by knowledge the righteous are delivered. - He has told you, O man, what is good;
and what does the Lord require of you
but to do justice, and to love kindness,
and to walk humbly with your God? - Jesus looked at them and said, “With man it is impossible, but not with God. For all things are possible with God.”
- The name of the Lord is a strong tower;
the righteous man runs into it and is safe. - Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him;
fret not yourself over the one who prospers in his way,
over the man who carries out evil devices! - He who finds a wife finds a good thing
and obtains favor from the Lord. - For who knows a person's thoughts except the spirit of that person, which is in him? So also no one comprehends the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God.
- Then the Lord God said, “Behold, the man has become like one of us in knowing good and evil. Now, lest he reach out his hand and take also of the tree of life and eat, and live forever—” therefore the Lord God sent him out from the garden of Eden to work the ground from which he was taken.
- Or can one walk on hot coals
and his feet not be scorched? - And though a man might prevail against one who is alone, two will withstand him—a threefold cord is not quickly broken.
- For we all stumble in many ways. And if anyone does not stumble in what he says, he is a perfect man, able also to bridle his whole body.
- The end of the matter; all has been heard. Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the whole duty of man.
- But, as it is written,
“What no eye has seen, nor ear heard,
nor the heart of man imagined,
what God has prepared for those who love him” - Do not envy a man of violence
and do not choose any of his ways,
for the devious person is an abomination to the Lord,
but the upright are in his confidence. - Many are the plans in the mind of a man,
but it is the purpose of the Lord that will stand. - And he said, “What comes out of a person is what defiles him. For from within, out of the heart of man, come evil thoughts, sexual immorality, theft, murder, adultery, coveting, wickedness, deceit, sensuality, envy, slander, pride, foolishness. All these evil things come from within, and they defile a person.”
- However, let each one of you love his wife as himself, and let the wife see that she respects her husband.
- Blessed is the man who remains steadfast under trial, for when he has stood the test he will receive the crown of life, which God has promised to those who love him.
- The prudent sees danger and hides himself,
but the simple go on and suffer for it. - Behold, blessed is the one whom God reproves;
therefore despise not the discipline of the Almighty. - In the same way husbands should love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself.
- Therefore you have no excuse, O man, every one of you who judges. For in passing judgment on another you condemn yourself, because you, the judge, practice the very same things.
- Then I saw that all toil and all skill in work come from a man's envy of his neighbor. This also is vanity and a striving after wind.
