- Taste and see that the Lord is good.
Oh, the joys of those who take refuge in him! - You must not misuse the name of the Lord your God. The Lord will not let you go unpunished if you misuse his name.
- And I will give you a new heart, and I will put a new spirit in you. I will take out your stony, stubborn heart and give you a tender, responsive heart.

All the Lord’s promises prove true.
He is a shield for all who look to him for protection. - But he knows where I am going.
And when he tests me, I will come out as pure as gold.
For I have stayed on God’s paths;
I have followed his ways and not turned aside. - Love each other with genuine affection, and take delight in honoring each other.

- That’s why I take pleasure in my weaknesses, and in the insults, hardships, persecutions, and troubles that I suffer for Christ. For when I am weak, then I am strong.

for your instructions are written on my heart. - Take no part in the worthless deeds of evil and darkness; instead, expose them.

a strong refuge when trouble comes.
He is close to those who trust in him. - Be careful then, dear brothers and sisters. Make sure that your own hearts are not evil and unbelieving, turning you away from the living God.
- Do not add to or subtract from these commands I am giving you. Just obey the commands of the Lord your God that I am giving you.
- So we fasted and earnestly prayed that our God would take care of us, and he heard our prayer.

- So remember this and keep it firmly in mind: The Lord is God both in heaven and on earth, and there is no other.
- Then the Lord God said, “Look, the human beings have become like us, knowing both good and evil. What if they reach out, take fruit from the tree of life, and eat it?

- But the Lord will redeem those who serve him.
No one who takes refuge in him will be condemned. - Fight the good fight for the true faith. Hold tightly to the eternal life to which God has called you, which you have declared so well before many witnesses.

- I love you, Lord;
you are my strength.
The Lord is my rock, my fortress, and my savior;
my God is my rock, in whom I find protection.
He is my shield, the power that saves me,
and my place of safety. - Then he said, “Beware! Guard against every kind of greed. Life is not measured by how much you own.”
- I don’t want you to die, says the Sovereign Lord. Turn back and live!
