7 Therefore give everyone what you owe: if you owe taxes, pay taxes; if customs, then customs; if respect, then respect; if honour, then honour.
12 But above all things, my brothers, don’t swear— not by heaven, or by the earth, or by any other oath; but let your "yes" be "yes", and your "no", "no", so that you don’t fall into hypocrisy.
13 He who conceals his sins doesn’t prosper,
but whoever confesses and renounces them finds mercy.
16 Confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The insistent prayer of a righteous person is powerfully effective.
7 Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him.
Don’t fret because of him who prospers in his way,
because of the man who makes wicked plots happen.
9 Don’t lie to one another, seeing that you have put off the old man with his doings,
21 Having regard for honourable things, not only in the sight of the Lord, but also in the sight of men.
28 A perverse man stirs up strife.
A whisperer separates close friends.
17 Repay no one evil for evil. Respect what is honourable in the sight of all men.
16 "No one, when he has lit a lamp, covers it with a container or puts it under a bed; but puts it on a stand, that those who enter in may see the light.
3 The integrity of the upright shall guide them,
but the perverseness of the treacherous shall destroy them.
2 Treasures of wickedness profit nothing,
but righteousness delivers 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.
15 Give diligence to present yourself approved by God, a workman who doesn’t need to be ashamed, properly handling the Word of Truth.
18 My little children, let’s not love in word only, or with the tongue only, but in deed and truth.
13 An evil man is trapped by sinfulness of lips,
but the righteous shall come out of trouble.
17 He who is truthful testifies honestly,
but a false witness lies.
8 Better is a little with righteousness,
than great revenues with injustice.
6 If we say that we have fellowship with him and walk in the darkness, we lie and don’t tell the truth.
6 For this reason you also pay taxes, for they are servants of God’s service, continually doing this very thing.
3 To do righteousness and justice
is more acceptable to the LORD than sacrifice.
25 Let your eyes look straight ahead.
Fix your gaze directly before you.
5 It is well with the man who deals graciously and lends.
He will maintain his cause in judgement.
9 Then you will understand righteousness and justice,
equity and every good path.
17 But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceful, gentle, reasonable, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.
27 Don’t withhold good from those to whom it is due,
when it is in the power of your hand to do it.
8 Blessed are the pure in heart,
for they shall see God.
1 A false balance is an abomination to the LORD,
but accurate weights are his delight.
3 The integrity of the upright shall guide them,
but the perverseness of the treacherous shall destroy them.
