- For whoso findeth me findeth life,
and shall obtain favour of the Lord. - Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not.
- Whereunto he called you by our gospel, to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.
- And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible.
- Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.
- A man's pride shall bring him low:
but honour shall uphold the humble in spirit. - Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing,
and obtaineth favour of the Lord. - He that covereth his sins shall not prosper:
but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy. - But now hath he obtained a more excellent ministry, by how much also he is the mediator of a better covenant, which was established upon better promises.
- Howbeit for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might shew forth all longsuffering, for a pattern to them which should hereafter believe on him to life everlasting.
- Learn to do well; seek judgment,
relieve the oppressed,
judge the fatherless,
plead for the widow. - Not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: but contrariwise blessing; knowing that ye are thereunto called, that ye should inherit a blessing.
- Having therefore obtained help of God, I continue unto this day, witnessing both to small and great, saying none other things than those which the prophets and Moses did say should come: That Christ should suffer, and that he should be the first that should rise from the dead, and should shew light unto the people, and to the Gentiles.
- Be it known unto you therefore, men and brethren, that through this man is preached unto you the forgiveness of sins: And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses.
- Wealth gotten by vanity shall be diminished:
but he that gathereth by labour shall increase. - Happy is the man that findeth wisdom,
and the man that getteth understanding. - Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory: Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls.
- Treasures of wickedness profit nothing:
but righteousness delivereth from death. - And if we know that he hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him.
A wise son maketh a glad father:
but a foolish son is the heaviness of his mother.
