- Before destruction the heart of man is haughty,
and before honour is humility. - The way of the Lord is strength to the upright:
but destruction shall be to the workers of iniquity. - But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition.
- He that keepeth his mouth keepeth his life:
but he that openeth wide his lips shall have destruction. - Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
- He sent his word, and healed them,
and delivered them from their destructions. - Open thy mouth for the dumb in the cause of all
such as are appointed to destruction. - For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.
- For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.
- Seek ye the Lord, all ye meek of the earth,
which have wrought his judgment;
seek righteousness, seek meekness:
it may be ye shall be hid
in the day of the Lord's anger. - For if ye throughly amend your ways and your doings; if ye throughly execute judgment between a man and his neighbour; If ye oppress not the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow, and shed not innocent blood in this place, neither walk after other gods to your hurt: Then will I cause you to dwell in this place, in the land that I gave to your fathers, for ever and ever.
God setteth the solitary in families:
he bringeth out those which are bound with chains:
but the rebellious dwell in a dry land. So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me.Next verse!With image
