2 Chronicles 19:9

but just as he who called you is holy, you yourselves also be holy in all of your behavior;

Follow after peace with all men, and the sanctification without which no man will see the Lord,

Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the Lord’s work, because you know that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.

Therefore “ ‘Come out from among them, and be separate,’ says the Lord. ‘Touch no unclean thing. I will receive you.

Beloved, I beg you as foreigners and pilgrims, to abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul;

The Rock: his work is perfect, for all his ways are just. A God of faithfulness who does no wrong, just and right is he.

He will judge your people with righteousness, and your poor with justice.

Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect.

They have all gone aside. They have together become corrupt. There is no one who does good, no, not one.

Create in me a clean heart, O God. Renew a right spirit within me.

Therefore remove sorrow from your heart, and put away evil from your flesh; for youth and the dawn of life are vanity.

Peter opened his mouth and said, “Truly I perceive that God doesn’t show favoritism;

Therefore let’s also, seeing we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, lay aside every weight and the sin which so easily entangles us, and let’s run with perseverance the race that is set before us,

My brothers, don’t hold the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ of glory with partiality.

Everyone who has this hope set on him purifies himself, even as he is pure.

Moreover you shall provide out of all the people able men which fear God: men of truth, hating unjust gain; and place such over them, to be rulers of thousands, rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens.
