Psalm 31:1-5

To the chief Musician. A Psalm of David.

31 In thee, Jehovah, do I trust; let me never be ashamed: deliver me in thy righteousness.

Incline thine ear to me, deliver me speedily; be a strong rock to me, a house of defence to save me.

For thou art my rock and my fortress; and, for thy name's sake, thou wilt lead me and guide me.

Draw me out of the net that they have hidden for me; for thou art my strength.

Into thy hand I commit my spirit: thou hast redeemed me, Jehovah, [thou] God of truth.

Psalm 31:19-24

19 [Oh] how great is thy goodness, which thou hast laid up for them that fear thee, [which] thou hast wrought for them that trust in thee, before the sons of men!

20 Thou keepest them concealed in the secret of thy presence from the conspiracies of man; thou hidest them in a pavilion from the strife of tongues.

21 Blessed be Jehovah; for he hath shewn me wondrously his loving-kindness in a strong city.

22 As for me, I said in my haste, I am cut off from before thine eyes; nevertheless thou heardest the voice of my supplications when I cried unto thee.

23 Love Jehovah, all ye his saints. Jehovah preserveth the faithful, and plentifully requiteth the proud doer.

24 Be strong, and let your heart take courage, all ye that hope in Jehovah.

Amos 2:6-11

Thus saith Jehovah: For three transgressions of Israel, and for four, I will not revoke its sentence; because they have sold the righteous for silver, and the needy for a pair of shoes;

panting after the dust of the earth on the head of the poor, and turning aside the way of the meek; and a man and his father will go in unto the [same] maid, to profane my holy name.

And they lay [themselves] down by every altar upon clothes taken in pledge, and they drink [in] the house of their God the wine of the condemned.

But I destroyed the Amorite before them, whose height was as the height of the cedars, and he was strong as the oaks; but I destroyed his fruit from above, and his roots from beneath.

10 And I brought you up from the land of Egypt, and led you forty years in the wilderness, to possess the land of the Amorite.

11 And I raised up of your sons for prophets, and of your young men for Nazarites. Is it not even thus, ye children of Israel? saith Jehovah.

Matthew 7:1-6

Judge not, that ye may not be judged;

for with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged; and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you.

But why lookest thou on the mote that is in the eye of thy brother, but observest not the beam that is in thine eye?

Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Allow [me], I will cast out the mote from thine eye; and behold, the beam is in thine eye?

Hypocrite, cast out first the beam out of thine eye, and then thou wilt see clearly to cast out the mote out of the eye of thy brother.

Give not that which is holy to the dogs, nor cast your pearls before the swine, lest they trample them with their feet, and turning round rend you.
