The way of life is above to the wise, that he may depart from hell beneath.

A wise man feareth, and departeth from evil: but the fool rageth, and is confident.

I will sing unto the LORD, because he hath dealt bountifully with me.

I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.

For the righteous LORD loveth righteousness; His countenance doth behold the upright.

For the LORD your God is God of gods, and Lord of lords, a great God, a mighty, and a terrible, which regardeth not persons, nor taketh reward:

I will be glad and rejoice in thee: I will sing praise to thy name, O thou most High.

I (Wisdom) lead in the way of righteousness, in the midst of the paths of judgment:

Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:

Therefore when thou doest thine alms, do not sound a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
