You have given a banner to those who fear You, That it may be displayed because of the truth. Selah

For His mercy toward us is great, And the truth of the Lord is everlasting. Praise the Lord!

Those who err in mind will know the truth, And those who criticize will accept instruction.

Who say to the seers, “You must not see visions”; And to the prophets, “You must not prophesy the truth to us. Speak to us pleasant words, Prophesy illusions.

Everyone deceives his neighbor And does not speak the truth. They have taught their tongue to speak lies; They weary themselves committing wrongdoing.

And now I will tell you the truth. Behold, three more kings are going to arise in Persia. Then a fourth will gain far more riches than all of them; as soon as he becomes strong through his riches, he will stir up the entire empire against the realm of Greece.

These are the things which you shall do: speak the truth to one another; judge with truth and judgment for peace at your gates.
