7 Render to all their dues: tribute to whom tribute is due; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honor to whom honor.
12 But above all things, my brethren, swear not, neither by the heaven, nor by the earth, nor by any other oath: but let your yea be yea, and your nay, nay; that ye fall not under judgment.
13 He that covereth his transgressions shall not prosper;
But whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall obtain mercy.
3 The integrity of the upright shall guide them;
But the perverseness of the treacherous shall destroy them.
16 And no man, when he hath lighted a lamp, covereth it with a vessel, or putteth it under a bed; but putteth it on a stand, that they that enter in may see the light.
16 Confess therefore your sins one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The supplication of a righteous man availeth much in its working.
2 Treasures of wickedness profit nothing;
But righteousness delivereth from death.
2 but we have renounced the hidden things of shame, not walking in craftiness, nor handling the word of God deceitfully; but by the manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man’s conscience in the sight of God.
7 Rest in Jehovah, and wait patiently for him:
Fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way,
Because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass.
15 Give diligence to present thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, handling aright the word of truth.
18 My little children, let us not love in word, neither with the tongue; but in deed and truth.
9 lie not one to another; seeing that ye have put off the old man with his doings,
13 In the transgression of the lips is a snare to the evil man;
But the righteous shall come out of trouble.
17 He that uttereth truth showeth forth righteousness;
But a false witness, deceit.
8 Better is a little, with righteousness,
Than great revenues with injustice.
21 for we take thought for things honorable, not only in the sight of the Lord, but also in the sight of men.
6 If we say that we have fellowship with him and walk in the darkness, we lie, and do not the truth:
6 For for this cause ye pay tribute also; for they are ministers of God’s service, attending continually upon this very thing.
28 A perverse man scattereth abroad strife;
And a whisperer separateth chief friends.
3 To do righteousness and justice
Is more acceptable to Jehovah than sacrifice.
27 Withhold not good from them to whom it is due,
When it is in the power of thy hand to do it.
17 Render to no man evil for evil. Take thought for things honorable in the sight of all men.
9 Then shalt thou understand righteousness and justice,
And equity, yea, every good path.
1 A false balance is an abomination to Jehovah;
But a just weight is his delight.
3 The integrity of the upright shall guide them;
But the perverseness of the treacherous shall destroy them.
5 Well is it with the man that dealeth graciously and lendeth;
He shall maintain his cause in judgment.
17 But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, easy to be entreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without variance, without hypocrisy.
25 Let thine eyes look right on,
And let thine eyelids look straight before thee.
8 Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.
