The arrogant mock me excessively, but I don’t swerve from your law.

But as for those who turn away to their crooked ways, Yahweh will lead them away with the workers of iniquity. Peace be on Israel.

I will sow them among the peoples; and they will remember me in far countries; and they will live with their children, and will return.

If your right hand causes you to stumble, cut it off, and throw it away from you. For it is more profitable for you that one of your members should perish, than for your whole body to be cast into Gehenna.

You are of your father, the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and doesn’t stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks on his own; for he is a liar, and the father of lies.

knowing this, that our old man was crucified with him, that the body of sin might be done away with, so that we would no longer be in bondage to sin.

For if you live after the flesh, you must die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.

Those who belong to Christ have crucified the flesh with its passions and lusts.

Put to death therefore your members which are on the earth: sexual immorality, uncleanness, depraved passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry.

The fear of Yahweh is to hate evil. I hate pride, arrogance, the evil way, and the perverse mouth.

Whatever my eyes desired, I didn’t keep from them. I didn’t withhold my heart from any joy, for my heart rejoiced because of all my labor, and this was my portion from all my labor.

I will cut off your engraved images and your pillars out from among you; and you shall no more worship the work of your hands.

I will tell my soul, “Soul, you have many goods laid up for many years. Take your ease, eat, drink, and be merry.” ’
