Psalm 110

110 I will praise thee, O Lord, with my whole heart; in the council of the just: and in the congregation.

Great are the works of the Lord: sought out according to all his wills.

His work is praise and magnificence: and his justice continueth for ever and ever.

He hath made a remembrance of his wonderful works, being a merciful and gracious Lord:

He hath given food to them that fear him. He will be mindful for ever of his covenant:

He will shew forth to his people the power of his works.

That he may give them the inheritance of the Gentiles: the works of his hands are truth and judgment.

All his commandments are faithful: confirmed for ever and ever, made in truth and equity.

He hath sent redemption to his people: he hath commanded his covenant for ever. Holy and terrible is his name:

10 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. A good understanding to all that do it: his praise continueth for ever and ever.

Proverbs 22:1-9

22 A good name is better than great riches: and good favour is above silver and gold.

The rich and poor have met one another: the Lord is the maker of them both.

The prudent man saw the evil, and hid himself: the simple passed on, and suffered loss.

The fruit of humility is the fear of the Lord, riches and glory and life.

Arms and swords are in the way of the perverse: but he that keepeth his own soul departeth far from them.

It is a proverb: A young man according to his way, even when he is old he will not depart from it.

The rich ruleth over the poor: and the borrower is servant to him that lendeth.

He that soweth iniquity shall reap evils, and with the rod of his anger he shall be consumed.

He that is inclined to mercy shall be blessed: for of his bread he hath given to the poor. He that maketh presents shall purchase victory and honour: but he carrieth away the souls of the receivers.

Luke 6:27-31

27 But I say to you that hear: Love your enemies, do good to them that hate you.

28 Bless them that curse you, and pray for them that calumniate you.

29 And to him that striketh thee on the one cheek, offer also the other. And him that taketh away from thee thy cloak, forbid not to take thy coat also.

30 Give to every one that asketh thee, and of him that taketh away thy goods, ask them not again.

31 And as you would that men should do to you, do you also to them in like manner.
