Put away

Make search for the Lord while he is there, make prayer to him while he is near:

For this cause I will be your judge, O children of Israel, judging every man by his ways, says the Lord. Come back and be turned from all your sins; so that they may not be the cause of your falling into evil.

And you are to say to them, These are the words of the Lord of armies: Come back to me, says the Lord of armies, and I will come back to you.

Let your change of heart be seen in your works:

That you are to put away, in relation to your earlier way of life, the old man, which has become evil by love of deceit;

For the grace of God has come, giving salvation to all men,

So putting away all wrongdoing, and all tricks and deceits and envies and evil talk,

Cease

Be turned from evil, and do good; make a search for peace, desiring it with all your heart.

Be turned from evil, and do good; and your place will be for ever.

Be haters of evil and lovers of good, and let right be done in the public place: it may be that the Lord, the God of armies, will have mercy on the rest of Joseph.

Let love be without deceit. Be haters of what is evil; keep your minds fixed on what is good.

And so, putting away false words, let everyone say what is true to his neighbour: for we are parts one of another.

And let him be turned from evil and do good; searching for peace and going after it with all his heart.
