- If I give away all my possessions, and if I hand over my body so that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.
- O give thanks to the Lord, for he is good;
for his steadfast love endures forever. - He loves righteousness and justice;
the earth is full of the steadfast love of the Lord. - Let no one despise your youth, but set the believers an example in speech and conduct, in love, in faith, in purity.
- For God is not unjust; he will not overlook your work and the love that you showed for his sake in serving the saints, as you still do.
- But, as it is written,
“What no eye has seen, nor ear heard,
nor the human heart conceived,
what God has prepared for those who love him” - For you, O Lord, are good and forgiving,
abounding in steadfast love to all who call on you. - I love the Lord, because he has heard
my voice and my supplications.
Because he inclined his ear to me,
therefore I will call on him as long as I live. - Shun youthful passions and pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace, along with those who call on the Lord from a pure heart.
- For your steadfast love is as high as the heavens;
your faithfulness extends to the clouds. - Hear, O Israel: The Lord is our God, the Lord alone. You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your might.
- For you were called to freedom, brothers and sisters; only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for self-indulgence, but through love become slaves to one another.
- And steadfast love belongs to you, O Lord.
For you repay to all
according to their work. - Truly the eye of the Lord is on those who fear him,
on those who hope in his steadfast love. - Blessed is anyone who endures temptation. Such a one has stood the test and will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him.
- He has told you, O mortal, what is good;
and what does the Lord require of you
but to do justice, and to love kindness,
and to walk humbly with your God? - By contrast, the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. There is no law against such things.
- Finally, brothers and sisters, farewell. Put things in order, listen to my appeal, agree with one another, live in peace; and the God of love and peace will be with you.
- Set me as a seal upon your heart,
as a seal upon your arm;
for love is strong as death,
passion fierce as the grave.
Its flashes are flashes of fire,
a raging flame. - For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil, and in their eagerness to be rich some have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many pains.
- No one can serve two masters; for a slave will either hate the one and love the other, or be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and wealth.
- Keep your lives free from the love of money, and be content with what you have; for he has said, “I will never leave you or forsake you.”
- One who forgives an affront fosters friendship,
but one who dwells on disputes will alienate a friend. - Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her, in order to make her holy by cleansing her with the washing of water by the word.
- Let mutual love continue. Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for by doing that some have entertained angels without knowing it.
