I know, O LORD, that thy judgments are righteous, and that in faithfulness thou have afflicted me.
I know, O LORD, that thy judgments are righteous, and that in faithfulness thou have afflicted me.
What will we say then? The law is sin? May it not happen! Yet I did not know sin except through law. For likewise I would not have known lust, if the law did not say, Thou shall not covet. But sin, having taken opportunity through the commandment, wrought in me every evil desire, for apart from law sin is dead. And I was alive once apart from law, but when the commandment came, sin revived, and I died. read more.
And I found to me, the commandment being for life, this is for death. For sin, having taken opportunity through the commandment, deceived me, and by it killed me. So the law is indeed holy, and the commandment is holy and righteous and good. Has therefore what is good become death to me? May it not happen! Instead, it is sin, so that it might be revealed, sin working death in me through what is good, so that through the commandment sin might become sinful to extreme. For we know that the law is spiritual, but I am carnal, having been sold under sin. For I do not understand what I do, for I do not do this that I want, but what I hate, this I do. But if I do this that I do not want, I agree with the law that it is good.

Why then the law? It was added on account of transgressions, until the seed would come to whom it was promised, which was arranged through heavenly agents in the hand of a mediator. Now a mediator is not of one, but God is one. Is the law therefore against the promises of God? May it not happen! For if a law was given that could make alive, truly righteousness would be from law. read more.
But scripture confined all things under sin, so that the promise from faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe. But before faith came we were kept in custody under law, having been confined for faith that was going to be revealed. So that the law became our schoolmaster for Christ, so that we might be made righteous from faith. But faith having come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster. For ye are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus. For as many as were immersed into Christ have put on Christ. There is no Jew nor Greek, there is no bondman nor freeman, there is no male and female, for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. And if ye are Christ's, then ye are Abraham's seed and heirs according to promise.

As Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities around them, the same kind of way with these who indulged in fornication, and who went rear of queer flesh, are set forth an example, undergoing the punishment of eternal fire. Nevertheless in the same way also these men who dream, indeed defile flesh, and reject lordship, and speak evil of dignities.

But these men indeed revile whatever they have not seen. But whatever they understand naturally, as the irrational beasts, in these things they are corrupted. Woe to them! Because they went in the way of Cain, and rushed to the error of Balaam's reward, and perished in the rebellion of Korah. These are reefs in your love-feasts, feasting together, fearlessly tending to themselves, waterless clouds carried along by winds, autumn trees without fruit, who died twice having being uprooted, wild waves of the sea foaming out their own shame, wandering stars for whom the gloom of darkness has been reserved into an age. And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied about these men, saying, Behold, Lord came with his holy myriads, to execute judgment against all, and to convict all the irreverent of them about all the works of their own irreverence that they have done irreverently, and about all the harsh things that irreverent sinners spoke against him. These are grumblers, fault-finders, going according to their lusts, and their mouth speaks overblown things, marveling personages for the sake of advantage.

Simon Peter, a bondman and apostle of Jesus Christ, to those who have received an equally precious faith with us in the righteousness of our God and Savior Jesus Christ: Grace to you and peace be multiplied in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord, as all things of his divine power to us, things toward life and piety, which were granted through the knowledge of him who called us through glory and virtue. read more.
Because of which, the precious and greatest promises have been given to us, so that through these ye might become companions of the divine nature, having escaped from the corruption in the world in lust. Now this same thing also, having applied all eagerness, furnish in your faith, virtue, and in virtue, knowledge, and in knowledge, self-control, and in self-control, perseverance, and in perseverance, piety, and in piety, brotherly affection, and in brotherly affection, love. For these things existing in you and abounding, it leads to not being idle nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. For he in whom these things are not present is blind, being near-sighted, having deliberately forgotten the purification of his former sins.

and I beheld among the simple ones, I discerned among the youths, a young man void of understanding passing through the street near her corner. And he went the way to her house, in the twilight, in the evening of the day, in the middle of the night and in the darkness. And, behold, there met him a woman attired like a harlot, and wily of heart. She is loud and headstrong. Her feet abide not in her house. Now she is in the streets, now in the broad places, and lays in wait at every corner. So she caught him, and kissed him. With an impudent face she said to him, Sacrifices of peace-offerings are with me. I have paid my vows this day. Therefore I came forth to meet thee, diligently to seek thy face, and I have found thee. I have spread my couch with carpets of tapestry, with striped cloths of the yarn of Egypt. I have perfumed my bed With myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon. Come, let us take our fill of love until the morning. Let us solace ourselves with love. For the man is not at home. He has gone a long journey. He has taken a bag of money with him. He will come home at the full moon. With her much fair speech she causes him to yield. With the flattering of her lips she forces him along. He goes after her straightaway, as an ox goes to the slaughter, or as a fool to the correction of the stocks, till an arrow strikes through his liver, as a bird hastens to the snare. And he does not know that it is for his life.
