  1. 2 Corinthians 1:12 The opposite of duplicity

But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged by you or by a human [a]court. In fact, I do not even judge myself. For I know of nothing against myself, yet I am not justified by this; but He who judges me is the Lord.

(D)Then each one’s praise will come from God.
