Psalm 92:1-4

A Psalm, a Song, for the Sabbath day.

92 It is good to give thanks unto Jehovah, and to sing psalms unto thy name, O Most High;

To declare thy loving-kindness in the morning, and thy faithfulness in the nights,

Upon an instrument of ten strings and upon the lute; upon the Higgaion with the harp.

For thou, Jehovah, hast made me glad through thy work; I will triumph in the works of thy hands.

Psalm 92:12-15

12 The righteous shall shoot forth like a palm-tree; he shall grow like a cedar on Lebanon.

13 Those that are planted in the house of Jehovah shall flourish in the courts of our God:

14 They are still vigorous in old age, they are full of sap and green;

15 To shew that Jehovah is upright: [he is] my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.

Proverbs 13:1-12

13 A wise son [heareth] his father's instruction; but a scorner heareth not rebuke.

A man shall eat good by the fruit of his mouth; but the soul of the treacherous, violence.

He that guardeth his mouth keepeth his soul; destruction shall be to him that openeth wide his lips.

A sluggard's soul desireth and hath nothing; but the soul of the diligent shall be made fat.

A righteous [man] hateth lying; but the wicked maketh himself odious and cometh to shame.

Righteousness preserveth him that is perfect in the way; but wickedness overthroweth the sinner.

There is that feigneth himself rich, and hath nothing; there is that maketh himself poor, and hath great wealth.

The ransom of a man's life is his riches; but the indigent heareth not rebuke.

The light of the righteous rejoiceth; but the lamp of the wicked shall be put out.

10 By pride there only cometh contention; but with the well-advised is wisdom.

11 Wealth [gotten] by vanity diminisheth; but he that gathereth by manual-labour shall increase [it].

12 Hope deferred maketh the heart sick; but the desire [that] cometh to pass is a tree of life.

Romans 5:12-6:2

12 For this [cause], even as by one man sin entered into the world, and by sin death; and thus death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:

13 (for until law sin was in [the] world; but sin is not put to account when there is no law;

14 but death reigned from Adam until Moses, even upon those who had not sinned in the likeness of Adam's transgression, who is [the] figure of him to come.

15 But [shall] not the act of favour [be] as the offence? For if by the offence of one the many have died, much rather has the grace of God, and the free gift in grace, which [is] by the one man Jesus Christ, abounded unto the many.

16 And [shall] not as by one that has sinned [be] the gift? For the judgment [was] of one to condemnation, but the act of favour, of many offences unto justification.

17 For if by the offence of the one death reigned by the one, much rather shall those who receive the abundance of grace, and of the free gift of righteousness, reign in life by the one Jesus Christ:)

18 so then as [it was] by one offence towards all men to condemnation, so by one righteousness towards all men for justification of life.

19 For as indeed by the disobedience of the one man the many have been constituted sinners, so also by the obedience of the one the many will be constituted righteous.

20 But law came in, in order that the offence might abound; but where sin abounded grace has overabounded,

21 in order that, even as sin has reigned in [the power of] death, so also grace might reign through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

What then shall we say? Should we continue in sin that grace may abound?

Far be the thought. We who have died to sin, how shall we still live in it?
