- Whatever you give is acceptable if you give it eagerly. And give according to what you have, not what you don’t have.
- Getting wisdom is the wisest thing you can do!
And whatever else you do, develop good judgment. - “All right, you may test him,” the Lord said to Satan. “Do whatever you want with everything he possesses, but don’t harm him physically.” So Satan left the Lord’s presence.
- Whatever is good and perfect is a gift coming down to us from God our Father, who created all the lights in the heavens. He never changes or casts a shifting shadow.
- No, O people, the Lord has told you what is good,
and this is what he requires of you:
to do what is right, to love mercy,
and to walk humbly with your God. - Don’t just pretend to love others. Really love them. Hate what is wrong. Hold tightly to what is good.
- But those who do what is right come to the light so others can see that they are doing what God wants.
- I praise God for what he has promised.
I trust in God, so why should I be afraid?
What can mere mortals do to me? - You know what I long for, Lord;
you hear my every sigh. - He will judge everyone according to what they have done.
- You know what I am going to say
even before I say it, Lord. - He replied, “What is impossible for people is possible with God.”
- Look straight ahead,
and fix your eyes on what lies before you. - We should help others do what is right and build them up in the Lord.

- You call me ‘Teacher’ and ‘Lord,’ and you are right, because that’s what I am.
- The Lord is for me, so I will have no fear.
What can mere people do to me? - Then what will you think if you see the Son of Man ascend to heaven again?
- That is what the Scriptures mean when they say,
“No eye has seen, no ear has heard,
and no mind has imagined
what God has prepared
for those who love him.” - And what do you benefit if you gain the whole world but lose your own soul?
- For this light within you produces only what is good and right and true.
- But if you look carefully into the perfect law that sets you free, and if you do what it says and don’t forget what you heard, then God will bless you for doing it.
- So you, too, must keep watch! For you don’t know what day your Lord is coming.
- Now this is what the Lord says to the family of Israel:
“Come back to me and live!” - I thank and praise you, God of my ancestors,
for you have given me wisdom and strength.

and revealed to us what the king demanded.
