7 Put no high value on your wisdom: let the fear of the Lord be before you, and keep yourself from evil:
8 This will give strength to your flesh, and new life to your bones.
13 The fear of the Lord is seen in hating evil: pride, a high opinion of oneself, the evil way, and the false tongue, are unpleasing to me.
10 You who are lovers of the Lord, be haters of evil; he keeps the souls of his saints; he takes them out of the hand of sinners.
9 If we say openly that we have done wrong, he is upright and true to his word, giving us forgiveness of sins and making us clean from all evil.
133 Let my steps be guided by your word; and let not sin have control over me.
13 And let us not be put to the test, but keep us safe from the Evil One.
7 The Lord will keep you safe from all evil; he will take care of your soul.
8 The Lord will keep watch over your going out and your coming in, from this time and for ever.
20 And he said, That which comes out of the man, that makes the man unclean.
21 Because from inside, from the heart of men, come evil thoughts and unclean pleasures,
22 The taking of goods and of life, broken faith between husband and wife, the desire of wealth, wrongdoing, deceit, sins of the flesh, an evil eye, angry words, pride, foolish acts:
23 All these evil things come from inside, and make the man unclean.
15 Let no one give evil for evil; but ever go after what is good, for one another and for all.
20 As for you, it was in your mind to do me evil, but God has given a happy outcome, the salvation of numbers of people, as you see today.
12 For our fight is not against flesh and blood, but against authorities and powers, against the world-rulers of this dark night, against the spirits of evil in the heavens.
12 Hate is a cause of violent acts, but all errors are covered up by love.
18 The Lord will keep me safe from every evil work and will give me salvation in his kingdom in heaven: to whom be glory for ever and ever. So be it.
15 My prayer is not that you will take them out of the world, but that you will keep them from the Evil One.
21 For this reason, putting away all dirty behaviour and the overweight of evil, take into your souls without pride the word which, being planted there, is able to give you salvation.
5 And the light goes on shining in the dark; it is not overcome by the dark.
16 Be washed, make yourselves clean; put away the evil of your doings from before my eyes; let there be an end of sinning;
17 Now, it is my desire, brothers, that you will take note of those who are causing division and trouble among you, quite against the teaching which was given to you: and keep away from them.
9 Let love be without deceit. Be haters of what is evil; keep your minds fixed on what is good.
26 Be angry without doing wrong; let not the sun go down on your wrath;
27 And do not give way to the Evil One.
21 Let all things be tested; keep to what is good;
22 Keep from every form of evil.
14 \34:13\Keep your tongue from evil, and your lips from words of deceit.
21 Do not let evil overcome you, but overcome evil by good.
11 Take up God's instruments of war, so that you may be able to keep your position against all the deceits of the Evil One.
9 This is what the Lord of armies has said: Let your judging be upright and done in good faith, let every man have mercy and pity for his brother:
10 Do not be hard on the widow, or the child without a father, on the man from a strange country, or on the poor; let there be no evil thought in your heart against your brother.
