- The Lord is good,
a stronghold in a day of trouble;
he protects those who take refuge in him. - Death and life are in the power of the tongue,
and those who love it will eat its fruits. - The Lord opens the eyes of the blind.
The Lord lifts up those who are bowed down;
the Lord loves the righteous. - As a father has compassion for his children,
so the Lord has compassion for those who fear him. - Happy are those whose way is blameless,
who walk in the law of the Lord. - Lying lips are an abomination to the Lord,
but those who act faithfully are his delight. - Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, praise and extol and honor the King of heaven,
for all his works are truth,
and his ways are justice;
and he is able to bring low
those who walk in pride. - Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
- If you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners do the same.
- Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due,
when it is in your power to do it. - The young lions suffer want and hunger,
but those who seek the Lord lack no good thing. - And we are witnesses to these things, and so is the Holy Spirit whom God has given to those who obey him.
- Those who guard their mouths preserve their lives;
those who open wide their lips come to ruin. - So those who welcomed his message were baptized, and that day about three thousand persons were added.
- By insolence the heedless make strife,
but wisdom is with those who take advice. - To those who by patiently doing good seek for glory and honor and immortality, he will give eternal life.
- And whoever does not provide for relatives, and especially for family members, has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.
- The Lord redeems the life of his servants;
none of those who take refuge in him will be condemned. - This God—his way is perfect;
the promise of the Lord proves true;
he is a shield for all who take refuge in him. - Those who are attentive to a matter will prosper,
and happy are those who trust in the Lord. - I reprove and discipline those whom I love. Be earnest, therefore, and repent.
- The earth is the Lord's and all that is in it,
the world, and those who live in it. - Glory to God in the highest heaven,
and on earth peace among those whom he favors! - Be on your guard, so that you do not lose what we have worked for, but may receive a full reward.
- Speak out for those who cannot speak,
for the rights of all the destitute.
