- 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.
- And he said, That which cometh out of the man, that defileth the man.

- Labour not to be rich:
cease from thine own wisdom. - Can one go upon hot coals,
and his feet not be burned? - Hatred stirreth up strifes:
but love covereth all sins. - Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers, For whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for menstealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine; According to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust.
- As in water face answereth to face,
so the heart of man to man. - A man's heart deviseth his way:
but the Lord directeth his steps. - My son, if thine heart be wise,
my heart shall rejoice, even mine. - Ponder the path of thy feet,
and let all thy ways be established. - When pride cometh, then cometh shame:
but with the lowly is wisdom. - Who can find a virtuous woman?
for her price is far above rubies. - A soft answer turneth away wrath:
but grievous words stir up anger. - A friend loveth at all times,
and a brother is born for adversity. - A man's gift maketh room for him,
and bringeth him before great men. - By humility and the fear of the Lord
are riches, and honour, and life. - A fool's wrath is presently known:
but a prudent man covereth shame. - A faithful witness will not lie:
but a false witness will utter lies. - Only by pride cometh contention:
but with the well advised is wisdom. - Righteousness exalteth a nation:
but sin is a reproach to any people. - Commit thy works unto the Lord,
and thy thoughts shall be established. - He keepeth the paths of judgment,
and preserveth the way of his saints. - Turn not to the right hand nor to the left:
remove thy foot from evil. - For whoso findeth me findeth life,
and shall obtain favour of the Lord.
With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love. Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye.Next verse!With image
