Psalm 119:65-72
New International Version
ט Teth
65 Do good(A) to your servant
according to your word,(B) Lord.
66 Teach me knowledge(C) and good judgment,
for I trust your commands.
67 Before I was afflicted(D) I went astray,(E)
but now I obey your word.(F)
68 You are good,(G) and what you do is good;
teach me your decrees.(H)
69 Though the arrogant have smeared me with lies,(I)
I keep your precepts with all my heart.
70 Their hearts are callous(J) and unfeeling,
but I delight in your law.
71 It was good for me to be afflicted(K)
so that I might learn your decrees.
72 The law from your mouth is more precious to me
than thousands of pieces of silver and gold.(L)
Isaiah 2:12-17
New International Version
12 The Lord Almighty has a day(A) in store
for all the proud(B) and lofty,(C)
for all that is exalted(D)
(and they will be humbled),(E)
13 for all the cedars of Lebanon,(F) tall and lofty,(G)
and all the oaks of Bashan,(H)
14 for all the towering mountains
and all the high hills,(I)
15 for every lofty tower(J)
and every fortified wall,(K)
16 for every trading ship[a](L)
and every stately vessel.
17 The arrogance of man will be brought low(M)
and human pride humbled;(N)
the Lord alone will be exalted in that day,(O)

New International Version
1 Paul, a servant of God(A) and an apostle(B) of Jesus Christ to further the faith of God’s elect and their knowledge of the truth(C) that leads to godliness(D)— 2 in the hope of eternal life,(E) which God, who does not lie,(F) promised before the beginning of time,(G) 3 and which now at his appointed season(H) he has brought to light(I) through the preaching entrusted to me(J) by the command of God(K) our Savior,(L)
4 To Titus,(M) my true son(N) in our common faith:
Grace and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Savior.(O)
Appointing Elders Who Love What Is Good(P)
5 The reason I left you in Crete(Q) was that you might put in order what was left unfinished and appoint[a] elders(R) in every town, as I directed you. 6 An elder must be blameless,(S) faithful to his wife, a man whose children believe[b] and are not open to the charge of being wild and disobedient. 7 Since an overseer(T) manages God’s household,(U) he must be blameless—not overbearing, not quick-tempered, not given to drunkenness, not violent, not pursuing dishonest gain.(V) 8 Rather, he must be hospitable,(W) one who loves what is good,(X) who is self-controlled,(Y) upright, holy and disciplined. 9 He must hold firmly(Z) to the trustworthy message as it has been taught, so that he can encourage others by sound doctrine(AA) and refute those who oppose it.
