Do they not err that devise evil? But mercy and truth'shall be to them that devise good.

A good man shall obtain favor of Jehovah; But a man of wicked devices will he condemn.

And he said, Blessed be Jehovah, the God of my master Abraham, who hath not forsaken his lovingkindness and his truth toward my master. As for me, Jehovah hath led me in the way to the house of my master's brethren.

But Jehovah said unto David my father, Whereas it was in thy heart to build a house for my name, thou didst well that it was in thy heart:

All the paths of Jehovah are lovingkindness and truth Unto such as keep his covenant and his testimonies.

He shall abide before God for ever: Oh prepare lovingkindness and truth, that they may preserve him.

Devise not evil against thy neighbor, Seeing he dwelleth securely by thee.

He that is soon angry will deal foolishly; And a man of wicked devices is hated.

That which maketh a man to be desired is his kindness; And a poor man is better than a liar.

And the instruments of the churl are evil: he deviseth wicked devices to destroy the meek with lying words, even when the needy speaketh right.

Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.

For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.
