11 For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men,
12 teaching us that having denied ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live discreetly, righteously and godly, in this present world,
16 A fool's vexation is known in a day, but the astute one covers shame.
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is: love, joy, peace, long-suffering, kindness, goodness, faith,
23 meekness, self-control; against such things there is no law.
27 But I buffet my body, and lead [it] captive, lest proclaiming to others I myself might be rejected.
7 For God has not given us the spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.
25 And everyone who strives for the mastery is temperate in all things. Then those truly that they may receive a corruptible crown, but we an incorruptible.
6 Therefore let us not sleep as the rest [do], but let us watch and be calm.
1 I made a covenant with my eyes; how then could I look upon a virgin?
2 And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, in order to prove by you what [is] that good and pleasing and perfect will of God.
19 Therefore, my beloved brothers, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath.
28 He who [has] no rule over his own spirit [is like a] broken down city without a wall.
8 Look to yourselves, so that we may not lose those things which we worked out, but that we may receive a full reward.
11 A fool speaks all his mind; but a wise one keeps it in until afterwards.
27 Do not turn to the right hand nor to the left; remove your foot from evil.
5 But also in this very thing, bringing in all diligence, filling out your faith with virtue, and with virtue, knowledge;
6 and with] knowledge self-control, and [with] self-control, patience, and [with] patience, godliness,
7 and [with] godliness, brotherly kindness, and [with] brotherly kindness, love.
32 He who is slow to anger [is] better than the mighty, and he who rules his spirit is better than he who takes a city.
13 No temptation has taken you but [what is] common to man; but God [is] faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted above what you are able, but with the temptation also will make a way to escape, so that you may be able to bear [it].
21 Death and life [are] in the power of the tongue, and those who love it shall eat the fruit of it.
12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the world's rulers, of the darkness of this age, against spiritual wickedness in high [places].
