- The earth is the Lord’s and everything in it,
the world and all who live in it. - There is a way that seems right to a man,
but the end of it leads to death. - Whatever moves and has life will be used for your food. I give you all these things, just as I have already given you every green plant. Only do not eat flesh along with its life, that is, with its blood.
- The tongue has the power over life and death;
those who cherish it will enjoy its fruits. - And the world with all its enticements
is passing away,
but whoever does the will of God
abides forever. - Rather, put on the Lord Jesus Christ and allow no opportunity for the flesh to gratify its sinful desires.
- I tell you that on the day of judgment people will have to render an account for every careless word they utter.
- So do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will take care of itself. Each day has enough troubles of its own.
- When riches increase,
so do those who are eager to accumulate them,
and those who have accumulated them must remain content
simply to feast their eyes on them. - Moreover, the one to whom God grants wealth and possessions and the ability to enjoy them and to find contentment in his toil receives a gift from God.
- Set me as a seal on your heart,
as a seal upon your arm.
For love is as strong as death,
and ardor is as relentless as the netherworld.
Its flames are flashes of fire,
an unending blaze. - I am now about to go the way of all upon the earth. You know very well in your hearts and your souls that not one of the good things that the Lord, your God, promised you has failed to take place. Every promise has been fulfilled, not one of them has been broken.
- God said, “Let there be light!” And there was light.
- There is no holy one like the Lord,
there is none beside you,
nor is there a rock like our God. - There is no longer Jew or Greek, there is no longer slave or free man, there is no longer male or female. For all of you are one in Christ Jesus.
- For there is one God,
and there is one mediator between God and man,
Christ Jesus, himself a man. - For where there is envy and selfish ambition, there will also be disharmony and every type of wickedness.
- There is no salvation in anyone else, nor is there any other name under heaven given to men by which we can be saved.
- Thereupon the Lord restored the prosperity of Job after he had prayed for his friends, and he enriched him with twice as much as he had possessed before.
- For where your treasure is, there will your heart also be.
- In my Father’s house
there are many dwelling places.
If there were not,
would I have told you
that I am going to prepare a place for you? - How great you are, Lord God! There is no one like you, and there is no God except you alone, as everything that we have heard confirms.
- I will, thereby, display my greatness and my holiness and make myself known to many nations. Then they will know that I am the Lord.
- Yet even if you should suffer for doing what is right, you are thereby blessed. Have no fear of others, and refuse to be intimidated by them.
- Cure the sick who are there, and say, ‘The kingdom of God has come unto you.’
Therefore, we love because he first loved us.He alone is my rock and my salvation,
my fortress, so that I stand unshaken. I ask that from the riches of his glory he may grant through his Spirit that you be strengthened with power in your inner being and that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith.Next verse!With image
