Zechariah 12:14

Blessed is the man who doesn’t walk in the counsel of the wicked, nor stand on the path of sinners, nor sit in the seat of scoffers;

If you are righteous, what do you give him? Or what does he receive from your hand?

Surely he mocks the mockers, but he gives grace to the humble.

If it is true that I have erred, my error remains with myself.

Penalties are prepared for scoffers, and beatings for the backs of fools.

Yahweh commanded us to do all these statutes, to fear Yahweh our God, for our good always, that he might preserve us alive, as we are today.

to keep Yahweh’s commandments and statutes, which I command you today for your good?

Look at this. We have searched it. It is so. Hear it, and know it for your good.”

“Can a man be profitable to God? Surely he who is wise is profitable to himself.

“Acquaint yourself with him, now, and be at peace. By it, good will come to you.

If you have sinned, what effect do you have against him? If your transgressions are multiplied, what do you do to him?

The appetite of the laboring man labors for him; for his mouth urges him on.

Now therefore don’t be scoffers, lest your bonds be made strong; for I have heard a decree of destruction from the Lord, Yahweh of Armies, on the whole earth.

The soul who sins, he shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son. The righteousness of the righteous shall be on him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be on him.

as also in all of his letters, speaking in them of these things. In those, there are some things that are hard to understand, which the ignorant and unsettled twist, as they also do to the other Scriptures, to their own destruction.
