- Look at the proud!
Their spirit is not right in them,
but the righteous live by their faith. - I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. From now on there is reserved for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, will give me on that day, and not only to me but also to all who have longed for his appearing.
- I say to the Lord, “You are my Lord;
I have no good apart from you.” - Trust in the Lord, and do good;
so you will live in the land, and enjoy security. - Let no one despise your youth, but set the believers an example in speech and conduct, in love, in faith, in purity.
- Whatever you ask for in prayer with faith, you will receive.
- O taste and see that the Lord is good;
happy are those who take refuge in him. - And whoever does not provide for relatives, and especially for family members, has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.
- Each of us must please our neighbor for the good purpose of building up the neighbor.
- O give thanks to the Lord, for he is good;
for his steadfast love endures forever. - Shun youthful passions and pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace, along with those who call on the Lord from a pure heart.
- For he satisfies the thirsty,
and the hungry he fills with good things. - For in Christ Jesus you are all children of God through faith. As many of you as were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ.
- Then you will understand righteousness and justice
and equity, every good path. - But ask in faith, never doubting, for the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, driven and tossed by the wind.
- We ourselves are Jews by birth and not Gentile sinners; yet we know that a person is justified not by the works of the law but through faith in Jesus Christ. And we have come to believe in Christ Jesus, so that we might be justified by faith in Christ, and not by doing the works of the law, because no one will be justified by the works of the law.
- How very good and pleasant it is
when kindred live together in unity! - By faith he received power of procreation, even though he was too old—and Sarah herself was barren—because he considered him faithful who had promised.
- A cheerful heart is a good medicine,
but a downcast spirit dries up the bones. - And without faith it is impossible to please God, for whoever would approach him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him.
- But test everything; hold fast to what is good; abstain from every form of evil.
- The Lord is good,
a stronghold in a day of trouble;
he protects those who take refuge in him. - The young lions suffer want and hunger,
but those who seek the Lord lack no good thing. - He who finds a wife finds a good thing,
and obtains favor from the Lord. - Examine yourselves to see whether you are living in the faith. Test yourselves. Do you not realize that Jesus Christ is in you?—unless, indeed, you fail to meet the test!
