- For that which could not be destroyed by fire, being warmed with a little sunbeam, presently melted away: Wis. 16:27
- That it might be known to all, that we ought to prevent the sun to bless thee, and adore thee at the dawning of the light. Wis. 16:28
- ¤ For thy judgments, O Lord, are great, and thy words cannot be expressed: therefore undisciplined souls have erred. Wis. 17:1
- For while the wicked thought to be able to have dominion over the holy nation, they themselves being fettered with the bonds of darkness, and a long night, shut up in their houses, lay there exiled from the eternal providence. Wis. 17:2
- But there appeared to them a sudden fire, very dreadful: and being struck with the fear of that face, which was not seen, they thought the things which they saw to be worse: Wis. 17:6
- For they who promised to drive away fears and troubles from a sick soul, were sick themselves of a fear worthy to be laughed at. Wis. 17:8
- For though no terrible thing disturbed them: yet being scared with the passing by of beasts, and hissing of serpents, they died for fear and denying that they saw the air, which could by no means be avoided. Wis. 17:9
- But they that during that night, in which nothing could be done, and which came upon them from the lowest and deepest hell, slept the same sleep, Wis. 17:13
- Or the mighty noise of stones tumbling down, or the running that could not be seen of beasts playing together, or the roaring voice of wild beasts, or a rebounding echo from the highest mountains: these things made them to swoon for fear. Wis. 17:18
- And they that before had been wronged, gave thanks, because they were not hurt now: and asked this gift, that there might be a difference. Wis. 18:2
- The others indeed were worthy to be deprived of light, and imprisoned in darkness, who kept thy children shut up, by whom the pure light of the law was to be given to the world. Wis. 18:4
- For that night was known before by our fathers, that assuredly knowing what oaths they had trusted to, they might be of better courage. Wis. 18:6
- For whereas they would not believe any thing before by reason of the enchantments, then first upon the destruction of the firstborn, they acknowledged the people to be of God. Wis. 18:13
- For whilst they were yet mourning, and lamenting at the graves of the dead, they took up another foolish device: and pursued them as fugitives whom they had pressed to be gone: Wis. 19:3
- For every creature, according to its kind was fashioned again as from the beginning, obeying thy commandments, that thy children might be kept without hurt. Wis. 19:6
- For while the elements are changed in themselves, as in an instrument the sound of the quality is changed, yet all keep their sound: which may clearly be perceived by the very sight. Wis. 19:17

- For good shall be repaid to thee for the sin of thy mother. Sir. 3:16
- And in justice thou shalt be built up, and in the day of affliction thou shalt be remembered: and thy sins shall melt away as the ice in the fair warm weather. Sir. 3:17
- My son, do thy works in meekness, and thou shalt be beloved above the glory of men. Sir. 3:19

- In unnecessary matters be not over curious, and in many of his works thou shalt not be inquisitive. Sir. 3:24
- A heart that goeth two ways shall not have success, and the perverse of heart shall be scandalized therein. Sir. 3:28
- A wicked heart shall be laden with sorrows, and the sinner will add sin to sin. Sir. 3:29

- Be not called a whisperer, and be not taken in thy tongue, and confounded. Sir. 5:16
- Extol not thyself in the thoughts of thy soul like a bull: lest thy strength be quashed by folly, Sir. 6:2

- For a wicked soul shall destroy him that hath it, and maketh him to be a joy to his enemies, and shall lead him into the lot of the wicked. Sir. 6:4
- Be in peace with many, but let one of a thousand be thy counsellor. Sir. 6:6
- A friend if he continue steadfast, shall be to thee as thyself, and shall act with confidence among them of thy household. Sir. 6:11
- Nothing can be compared to a faithful friend, and no weight of gold and silver is able to countervail the goodness of his fidelity. Sir. 6:15

- Then shall her fetters be a strong defence for thee, and a firm foundation, and her chain a robe of glory: Sir. 6:30
- My son, if thou wilt attend to me, thou shalt learn: and if thou wilt apply thy mind, thou shalt be wise. Sir. 6:33
- If thou wilt incline thy ear, thou shalt receive instruction: and if thou love to hear, thou shalt be wise. Sir. 6:34
- Let thy thoughts be upon the precepts of God, and meditate continually on his commandments: and he will give thee a heart, and the desire of wisdom shall be given to thee. Sir. 6:37

- Let just men be thy guests, and let thy glory be in the fear of God. Sir. 9:22
- And let the thought of God be in thy mind, and all thy discourse on the commandments of the Highest. Sir. 9:23

- An unwise king shall be the ruin of his people: and cities shall be inhabited through the prudence of the rulers. Sir. 10:3
- Because his heart is departed from him that made him: for pride is the beginning of all sin: he that holdeth it, shall be filled with maledictions, and it shall ruin him in the end. Sir. 10:15
- That seed of men shall be honoured, which feareth God: but that seed shall be dishonoured, which transgresseth the commandments of the Lord. Sir. 10:23
- In the midst of brethren their chief is honourable: so shall they that fear the Lord, be in his eyes. Sir. 10:24
- They that are free shall serve a servant that is wise: and a man that is prudent and well instructed will not murmur when he is reproved; and he that is ignorant, shall not be honoured. Sir. 10:28
- Glory not in apparel at any time, and be not exalted in the day of thy honour: for the works of the Highest only are wonderful, and his works are glorious, and secret, and hidden. Sir. 11:4
- My son, meddle not with many matters: and if thou be rich, thou shalt not be free from sin: for if thou pursue after thou shalt not overtake; and if thou run before thou shalt not escape. Sir. 11:10

- In the congregation of sinners a fire shall be kindled, and in an unbelieving nation wrath shall flame out. Sir. 16:7
- The sinner shall not escape in his rapines, and the patience of him that sheweth mercy shall not be put off. Sir. 16:14
- Say not: I shall be hidden from God, and who shall remember me from on high? Sir. 16:16
- In such a multitude I shall not be known: for what is my soul in such an immense creation? Sir. 16:17
- Behold the heaven, and the heavens of heavens, the deep, and all the earth, and the things that are in them, shall be moved in his sight, Sir. 16:18
- The mountains also, and the hills, and the foundations of the earth: when God shall look upon them, they shall be shaken with trembling. Sir. 16:19
- Be not thou incredulous to his word. Sir. 16:29
- For all things cannot be in men, because the son of man is not immortal, and they are delighted with the vanity of evil. Sir. 17:29
- What is brighter than the sun; yet it shall be eclipsed. Or what is more wicked than that which flesh and blood hath invented? and this shall be reproved. Sir. 17:30
- ¤ He that liveth for ever created all things together. God only shall be justified, and he remaineth an invincible king for ever. Sir. 18:1
- And who shall show forth the power of his majesty? or who shall be able to declare his mercy? Sir. 18:4
- Nothing may be taken away, nor added, neither is it possible to find out the glorious works of God. Sir. 18:5
- When a man hath done, then shall he begin: and when he leaveth off, he shall be at a loss. Sir. 18:6
- Let nothing hinder thee from praying always, and be not afraid to be justified even to death: for the reward of God continueth for ever. Sir. 18:22
- Before prayer prepare thy soul: and be not as a man that tempteth God. Sir. 18:23
- Remember the wrath that shall be at the last day, and the time of repaying when he shall turn away his face. Sir. 18:24
- From the morning until the evening the time shall be changed, and all these are swift in the eyes of God. Sir. 18:26
- Take no pleasure in riotous assemblies, be they ever so small: for their concertation is continual. Sir. 18:32
- Make not thyself poor by borrowing to contribute to feasts when thou hast nothing in thy purse: for thou shalt be an enemy to thy own life. Sir. 18:33
- ¤ A workman that is a drunkard shall not be rich: and he that contemneth small things, shall fall by little and little. Sir. 19:1
- And he that joineth himself to harlots, will be wicked. Rottenness and worms shall inherit him, and he shall be lifted up for a greater example, and his soul shall be taken away out of the number. Sir. 19:3

- He that sinneth against his own soul, shall repent: and he that is delighted with wickedness, shall be condemned. Sir. 19:6
- Tell not thy mind to friend or foe: and if there be a sin with thee, disclose it not. Sir. 19:8
- For he will hearken to thee, and will watch thee, and as it were defending thy sin he will hate thee, and so will he be with thee always. Sir. 19:9
- Reprove thy neighbour, for it may be he hath not said it: and if he hath said it, that he may not say it again. Sir. 19:14
- And if he be hindered from sinning for want of power, if he shall find opportunity to do evil, he will do it. Sir. 19:25
- There is a lying rebuke in the anger of an injurious man: and there is a judgment that is not allowed to be good: and there is one that holdeth his peace, he is wise. Sir. 19:28
- ¤ How much better is it to reprove, than to be angry, and not to hinder him that confesseth in prayer. Sir. 20:1
- He that useth many words shall hurt his own soul: and he that taketh authority to himself unjustly shall be hated. Sir. 20:8
- A man wise in words shall make himself beloved: but the graces of fools shall be poured out. Sir. 20:13
- A fool shall have no friend, and there shall be no thanks for his good deeds. Sir. 20:17
- For he doth not distribute with right understanding that which was to be had: in like manner also that which was not to be had. Sir. 20:19
- A man without grace is as a vain fable, it shall be continually in the mouth of the unwise. Sir. 20:21
- A parable coming out of a fool's mouth shall be rejected: for he doth not speak it in due season. Sir. 20:22
- There is that is hindered from sinning through want, and in his rest he shall be pricked. Sir. 20:23
- A lie is a foul blot in a man, and yet it will be continually in the mouth of men without discipline. Sir. 20:26
- He that tilleth his land shall make a high heap of corn: and he that worketh justice shall be exalted: and he that pleaseth great men shall escape iniquity. Sir. 20:30
- ¤ My son, hast thou sinned? do so no more: but for thy former sins also pray that they may be forgiven thee. Sir. 21:1
- Injuries and wrongs will waste riches: and the house that is very rich shall be brought to nothing by pride: so the substance of the proud shall be rooted out. Sir. 21:5
- He that hateth to be reproved walketh in the trace of a sinner: and he that feareth God will turn to his own heart. Sir. 21:7
- He that is not wise in good, will not be taught. Sir. 21:14
- The talking of a fool is like a burden in the way: but in the lips of the wise, grace shall be found. Sir. 21:19
- The foot of a fool is soon in his neighbour's house: but a man of experience will be abashed at the person of the mighty. Sir. 21:25
- It is the folly of a man to hearken at the door: and a wise man will be grieved with the disgrace. Sir. 21:27
- The lips of the unwise will be telling foolish things: but the words of the wise shall be weighed in a balance. Sir. 21:28
- The talebearer shall defile his own soul, and shall be hated by all: and he that shall abide with him shall be hateful: the silent and wise man shall be honoured. Sir. 21:31
- A son ill taught is the confusion of the father: and a foolish daughter shall be to his loss. Sir. 22:3
- She that is bold shameth both her father and husband, and will not be inferior to the ungodly: and shall be disgraced by them both. Sir. 22:5
- Keep thyself from him, that thou mayst not have trouble, and thou shalt not be defiled with his sin. Sir. 22:15
- Turn away from him, and thou shalt find rest, and shalt not be wearied out with his folly. Sir. 22:16
- A frame of wood bound together in the foundation of a building, shall not be loosed: so neither shall the heart that is established by advised counsel. Sir. 22:19
- The thought of him that is wise at all times, shall not be depraved by fear. Sir. 22:20
- Although thou hast drawn a sword at a friend, despair not: for there may be a returning. To a friend, Sir. 22:26
- If thou hast opened a sad mouth, fear not, for there may be a reconciliation: except upbraiding, and reproach, and pride, and disclosing of secrets, or a treacherous wound: for in all these cases a friend will flee away. Sir. 22:27
- In the time of his trouble continue faithful to him, that thou mayst also be heir with him in his inheritance. Sir. 22:29
- I will not be ashamed to salute a friend, neither will I hide myself from his face: and if any evil happen to me by him, I will bear it. Sir. 22:31
- Lest my ignorances increase, and my offences be multiplied, and my sins abound, and I fall before my adversaries, and my enemy rejoice over me? Sir. 23:3
- Hear, O ye children, the discipline of the mouth, and he that will keep it shall not perish by his lips, nor be brought to fall into most wicked works. Sir. 23:7
- Let not thy mouth be accustomed to swearing: for in it there are many falls. Sir. 23:9
- And let not the naming of God be usual in thy mouth, and meddle not with the names of saints, for thou shalt not escape free from them. Sir. 23:10
- For as a slave daily put to the question, is never without a blue mark: so every one that sweareth, and nameth, shall not be wholly pure from sin. Sir. 23:11
- A man that sweareth much, shall be filled with iniquity, and a scourge shall not depart from his house. Sir. 23:12
- And if he make it void, his sin shall be upon him, and if he dissemble it, he offendeth double: Sir. 23:13
- And if he swear in vain, he shall not be justified: for his house shall be filled with his punishment. Sir. 23:14
- There is also another speech opposite to death, let it not be found in the inheritance of Jacob. Sir. 23:15
- For from the merciful all these things shall be taken away, and they shall not wallow in sins. Sir. 23:16
- Let not thy mouth be accustomed to indiscreet speech: for therein is the word of sin. Sir. 23:17
- Lest God forget thee in their sight, and thou, by thy daily custom be infatuated and suffer reproach: and wish that thou hadst not been born, and curse the day of thy nativity. Sir. 23:19
- The man that is accustomed to opprobrious words, will never be corrected all the days of his life. Sir. 23:20
- A hot soul is a burning fire, it will never be quenched, till it devour some thing. Sir. 23:22
- To a man that is a fornicator all bread is sweet, he will not be weary of sinning unto the end. Sir. 23:24
- This man shall be punished in the streets of the city, and he shall be chased as a colt: and where he suspected not, he shall be taken. Sir. 23:30
- And he shall be in disgrace with all men, because he understood not the fear of the Lord. Sir. 23:31
- This woman shall be brought into the assembly, and inquisition shall be made of her children. Sir. 23:34
- She shall leave her memory to be cursed, and her infamy shall not be blotted out. Sir. 23:36

- And in the midst of her own people she shall be exalted, and shall be admired in the holy assembly. Sir. 24:3
- And in the multitude of the elect she shall have praise, and among the blessed she shall be blessed, saying: Sir. 24:4
- And he said to me: Let thy dwelling be in Jacob, and thy inheritance in Israel, and take root in my elect. Sir. 24:13
- From the beginning, and before the world, was I created, and unto the world to come I shall not cease to be, and in the holy dwelling place I have ministered before him. Sir. 24:14
- Come over to me, all ye that desire me, and be filled with my fruits. Sir. 24:26
- He that hearkeneth to me, shall not be confounded: and they that work by me, shall not sin. Sir. 24:30
- Nine things that are not to be imagined by the heart have I magnified, and the tenth I will utter to men with my tongue. Sir. 25:9
- Blessed is the man, to whom it is given to have the fear of God: he that holdeth it, to whom shall he be likened? Sir. 25:15
- The fear of God is the beginning of his love: and the beginning of faith is to be fast joined unto it. Sir. 25:16

- And when he was now maimed in all parts, he commanded him, being yet alive, to be brought to the fire, and to be fried in the fryingpan: and while he was suffering therein long torments, the rest, together with the mother, exhorted one another to die manfully, 2 Ma. 7:5
- And when he was now ready to die, he spoke thus: It is better, being put to death by men, to look for hope from God, to be raised up again by him; for, as to thee, thou shalt have no resurrection unto life. 2 Ma. 7:14

- But Machabeus calling together seven thousand that were with him, exhorted them not to be reconciled to the enemies, nor to fear the multitude of the enemies who came wrongfully against them, but to fight manfully: 2 Ma. 8:16
- When this was done, and they had all made a common supplication, they besought the merciful Lord, to be reconciled to his servants unto the end. 2 Ma. 8:29
- And he that had promised to levy the tribute for the Romans, by the means of the captives of Jerusalem, now professed that the Jews had God for their protector, and therefore they could not be hurt, because they followed the laws appointed by him. 2 Ma. 8:36
- And swelling with anger, he thought to revenge upon the Jews the injury done by them that had put him to flight.

- Moreover, being filled with pride, breathing out fire in his rage against the Jews, and commanding the matter to be hastened, it happened as he was going with violence, that he fell from the chariot, so that his limbs were much pained by a grievous bruising of the body. 2 Ma. 9:7
- And when he himself could not now abide his own stench, he spoke thus: It is just to be subject to God, and that a mortal man should not equal himself to God. 2 Ma. 9:12

- How is it then, brethren? When you come together, every one of you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine, hath a revelation, hath a tongue, hath an interpretation: let all things be done to edification. 1 Cor. 14:26

- Wherefore, brethren, be zealous to prophesy: and forbid not to speak with tongues. 1 Cor. 14:39
- But let all things be done decently and according to order. 1 Cor. 14:40
- For I am the least of the apostles, who am not worthy to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God. 1 Cor. 15:9
- Now if Christ be preached, that he arose again from the dead, how do some among you say that there is no resurrection of the dead? 1 Cor. 15:12

- Yet so that we be found clothed, not naked. 2 Cor. 5:3
- For we also, who are in this tabernacle, do groan, being burthened; because we would not be unclothed, but clothed upon, that that which is mortal may be swallowed up by life. 2 Cor. 5:4
- But we are confident and have a good will to be absent rather from the body and to be present with the Lord. 2 Cor. 5:8
- For we must all be manifested before the judgment seat of Christ, that every one may receive the proper things of the body, according as he hath done, whether it be good or evil. 2 Cor. 5:10
- For whether we be transported in mind, it is to God: or whether we be sober, it is for you. 2 Cor. 5:13
- If then any be in Christ a new creature, the old things are passed away. Behold all things are made new. 2 Cor. 5:17
- For Christ therefore we are ambassadors, God as it were exhorting by us, for Christ, we beseech you, be reconciled to God. 2 Cor. 5:20
- Him, who knew no sin, he hath made sin for us: that we might be made the justice of God in him. 2 Cor. 5:21
- Giving no offence to any man, that our ministry be not blamed. 2 Cor. 6:3
- But having the same recompense (I speak as to my children): be you also enlarged. 2 Cor. 6:13
- And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? For you are the temple of the living God: as God saith: I will dwell in them and walk among them. And I will be their God: and they shall be my people. 2 Cor. 6:16
- Wherefore: Go out from among them and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing: And I will receive you. 2 Cor. 6:17
- And will be a Father to you: and you shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty. 2 Cor. 6:18
- For behold this selfsame thing, that you were made sorrowful according to God, how great carefulness it worketh in you: yea defence, yea indignation, yea fear, yea desire, yea zeal, yea revenge. In all things you have shewed yourselves to be undefiled in the matter. 2 Cor. 7:11
- For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that being rich he became poor for your sakes: that through his poverty you might be rich. 2 Cor. 8:9
- And herein I give my advice: for this is profitable for you who have begun not only to do but also to be willing, a year ago. 2 Cor. 8:10
- Now therefore perform ye it also in deed: that as your mind is forward to be willing, so it may be also to perform, out of that which you have. 2 Cor. 8:11
- For if the will be forward, it is accepted according to that which a man hath: not according to that which he hath not. 2 Cor. 8:12
- For I mean not that others should be eased and you burdened, 2 Cor. 8:13
- But by an equality. In this present time let your abundance supply their want, that their abundance also may supply your want: that there may be an equality, 2 Cor. 8:14
- And thanks be to God, who hath given the same carefulness for you in the heart of Titus. 2 Cor. 8:16
- For we forecast what may be good, not only before God but also before men. 2 Cor. 8:21
- Now I have sent the brethren, that the thing which we boast of concerning you be not made void in this behalf, that (as I have said) you may be ready: 2 Cor. 9:3
- Lest, when the Macedonians shall come with me and find you unprepared, we (not to say ye) should be ashamed in this matter. 2 Cor. 9:4
- Therefore I thought it necessary to desire the brethren that they would go to you before and prepare this blessing before promised, to be ready, so as a blessing, not as covetousness. 2 Cor. 9:5
- Thanks be to God for his unspeakable gift. 2 Cor. 9:15
- But I beseech you, that I may not be bold when I am present with that confidence wherewith I am thought to be bold, against some who reckon us as if we walked according to the flesh. 2 Cor. 10:2
- And having in readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience shall be fulfilled. 2 Cor. 10:6
- For if also I should boast somewhat more of our power, which the Lord hath given us unto edification and not for your destruction, I should not be ashamed. 2 Cor. 10:8
- But that I may not be thought as it were to terrify you by epistles, 2 Cor. 10:9
- Let such a one think this, that such as we are in word by epistles when absent, such also we will be indeed when present. 2 Cor. 10:11
- Not glorying beyond measure in other men's labours: but having hope of your increasing faith, to be magnified in you according to our rule abundantly. 2 Cor. 10:15
- But I fear lest, as the serpent seduced Eve by his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted and fall from the simplicity that is in Christ. 2 Cor. 11:3
- For although I be rude in speech, yet not in knowledge: but in all things we have been made manifest to you. 2 Cor. 11:6
- Or did I commit a fault, humbling myself that you might be exalted, because I preached unto you the Gospel of God freely? 2 Cor. 11:7
- The truth of Christ is in me, that this glorying shall not be broken off in me in the regions of Achaia. 2 Cor. 11:10
- But what I do, that I will do: that I may cut off the occasion from them that desire occasion: that wherein they glory, they may be found even as we. 2 Cor. 11:12
- Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers be transformed as the ministers of justice, whose end shall be according to their works. 2 Cor. 11:15
- I say again (Let no man think me to be foolish: otherwise take me as one foolish, that I also may glory a little): 2 Cor. 11:16
- For you suffer if a man bring you into bondage, if a man devour you, if a man take from you, if a man be lifted up, if a man strike you on the face. 2 Cor. 11:20
- For though I should have a mind to glory, I shall not be foolish: for I will say the truth. But I forbear, lest any man should think of me above that which he seeth in me, or any thing he heareth from me. 2 Cor. 12:6
- I am become foolish. You have compelled me: for I ought to have been commended by you. For I have no way come short of them that are above measure apostles, although I be nothing. 2 Cor. 12:11
- Behold now the third time I am ready to come to you and I will not be burthensome unto you. For I seek not the things that are yours, but you. For neither ought the children to lay up for the parents, but the parents for the children. 2 Cor. 12:14
- But I most gladly will spend and be spent myself for your souls: although loving you more, I be loved less. 2 Cor. 12:15
- But be it so: I did not burthen you: but being crafty, I caught you by guile. 2 Cor. 12:16
- For I fear lest perhaps, when I come, I shall not find you such as I would, and that I shall be found by you such as you would not. Lest perhaps contentions, envyings, animosities, dissensions, detractions, whisperings, swellings, seditions, be among you. 2 Cor. 12:20
- Try your own selves if you be in the faith: prove ye yourselves. Know you not your own selves, that Christ Jesus is in you, unless perhaps you be reprobates? 2 Cor. 13:5
- Now we pray God that you may do no evil, not that we may appear approved, but that you may do that which is good and that we may be as reprobates. 2 Cor. 13:7
- For the rest, brethren, rejoice, be perfect, take exhortation, be of one mind, have peace. And the God of peace and of love shall be with you. 2 Cor. 13:11
- The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ and the charity of God and the communication of the Holy Ghost be with you all. Amen. 2 Cor. 13:14
- Grace be to you, and peace from God the Father and from our Lord Jesus Christ, Gal. 1:3
- But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach a gospel to you besides that which we have preached to you, let him be anathema. Gal. 1:8
- As we said before, so now I say again: If any one preach to you a gospel, besides that which you have received, let him be anathema. Gal. 1:9
- For do I now persuade men, or God? Or do I seek to please men? If I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ. Gal. 1:10
- And I went up according to revelation and communicated to them the gospel which I preach among the Gentiles: but apart to them who seemed to be some thing: lest perhaps I should run or had run in vain. Gal. 2:2
- But neither Titus, who was with me, being a Gentile, was compelled to be circumcised. Gal. 2:3
- But of them who seemed to be some thing, (what they were some time it is nothing to me, God accepteth not the person of man): for to me they that seemed to be some thing added nothing. Gal. 2:6
- And when they had known the grace that was given to me, James and Cephas and John, who seemed to be pillars, gave to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship: that we should go unto the Gentiles, and they unto the circumcision: Gal. 2:9
- Only that we should be mindful of the poor: which same thing also I was careful to do. Gal. 2:10
- But when Cephas was come to Antioch, I withstood him to the face, because he was to be blamed. Gal. 2:11
- But knowing that man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, we also believe in Christ Jesus, that we may be justified by the faith of Christ and not by the works of the law: because by the works of the law no flesh shall be justified. Gal. 2:16
- But if, while we seek to be justified in Christ, we ourselves also are found sinners, is Christ then the minister of sin? God forbid! Gal. 2:17
- I cast not away the grace of God. For if justice be by the law, then Christ died in vain. Gal. 2:21
- Are you so foolish that, whereas you began in the Spirit, you would now be made perfect by the flesh? Gal. 3:3
- Have you suffered so great things in vain? If it be yet in vain. Gal. 3:4
- And the scripture, foreseeing that God justifieth the Gentiles by faith, told unto Abraham before: In thee shall all nations be blessed. Gal. 3:8
- Therefore, they that are of faith shall be blessed with faithful Abraham. Gal. 3:9
- Brethren (I speak after the manner of man), yet a man's testament, if it be confirmed, no man despiseth nor addeth to it. Gal. 3:15
- For if the inheritance be of the law, it is no more of promise. But God gave it to Abraham by promise. Gal. 3:18
- But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise, by the faith of Jesus Christ, might be given to them that believe. Gal. 3:22
- But before the faith came, we were kept under the law shut up, unto that faith which was to be revealed. Gal. 3:23
- Wherefore the law was our pedagogue in Christ: that we might be justified by faith. Gal. 3:24
- And if you be Christ's, then are you the seed of Abraham, heirs according to the promise. Gal. 3:29
- ¤ Now I say, as long as the heir is a child, he differeth nothing from a servant, though he be lord of all, Gal. 4:1
- Be ye as I, because I also am as you brethren, I beseech you. You have not injured me at all. Gal. 4:12
- Where is then your blessedness? For I bear you witness that, if it could be done, you would have plucked out your own eyes and would have given them to me. Gal. 4:15
- They are zealous in your regard not well: but they would exclude you, that you might be zealous for them. Gal. 4:17
- But be zealous for that which is good in a good thing always: and not only when I am present with you. Gal. 4:18
- My little children, of whom I am in labour again, until Christ be formed in you. Gal. 4:19
- And I would willingly be present with you now and change my voice: because I am ashamed for you. Gal. 4:20
- Tell me, you that desire to be under the law, have you not read the law? Gal. 4:21
- But what saith the scripture? Cast out the bondwoman and her son: for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with the son of the free woman. Gal. 4:30

- Behold, I Paul tell you, that if you be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing. Gal. 5:2
- I have confidence in you in the Lord that you will not be of another mind: but he that troubleth you shall bear the judgment, whosoever he be. Gal. 5:10
- But if you bite and devour one another: take heed you be not consumed one of another. Gal. 5:15
- Let us not be made desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another. Gal. 5:26
- ¤ Brethren, and if a man be overtaken in any fault, you, who are spiritual, instruct such a one in the spirit of meekness, considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted. Gal. 6:1
- For if any man think himself to be some thing, whereas he is nothing, he deceiveth himself. Gal. 6:3
- Be not deceived: God is not mocked. For what things a man shall sow, those also shall he reap. Gal. 6:7
- For as many as desire to please in the flesh, they constrain you to be circumcised, only that they may not suffer the persecution of the cross of Christ. Gal. 6:12
- For neither they themselves who are circumcised keep the law: but they will have you to be circumcised, that they may glory in your flesh. Gal. 6:13
- From henceforth let no man be troublesome to me: for I bear the marks of the Lord Jesus in my body. Gal. 6:17
