Rejoice, O young man, in your youth, and let your heart cheer you in the days of your youth. Walk in the ways of your heart and the sight of your eyes. But know that for all these things God will bring you into judgment.

Beloved, I urge you as sojourners and exiles to abstain from the passions of the flesh, which wage war against your soul.

Follow

Let no one despise you for your youth, but set the believers an example in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith, in purity.

But as for you, O man of God, flee these things. Pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, steadfastness, gentleness.

Strive for peace with everyone, and for the holiness without which no one will see the Lord.

Beloved, do not imitate evil but imitate good. Whoever does good is from God; whoever does evil has not seen God.

Charity

Pursue love, and earnestly desire the spiritual gifts, especially that you may prophesy.

Peace

For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking but of righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.

May the God of endurance and encouragement grant you to live in such harmony with one another, in accord with Christ Jesus,

I appeal to you, brothers, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree, and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be united in the same mind and the same judgment.

Strive for peace with everyone, and for the holiness without which no one will see the Lord.

let him turn away from evil and do good; let him seek peace and pursue it.

Call

I know, my God, that you test the heart and have pleasure in uprightness. In the uprightness of my heart I have freely offered all these things, and now I have seen your people, who are present here, offering freely and joyously to you.

Hear a just cause, O LORD; attend to my cry! Give ear to my prayer from lips free of deceit!

If I had cherished iniquity in my heart, the Lord would not have listened.

The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the LORD, but the prayer of the upright is acceptable to him.

And here he has authority from the chief priests to bind all who call on your name."

To the church of God that is in Corinth, to those sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints together with all those who in every place call upon the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, both their Lord and ours:

I desire then that in every place the men should pray, lifting holy hands without anger or quarreling;

Out

The aim of our charge is love that issues from a pure heart and a good conscience and a sincere faith.

Let no one despise you for your youth, but set the believers an example in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith, in purity.
