Thematic Bible: Truthfulness


Thematic Bible





Here's what you must do: tell the truth to your neighbors, administer true and peaceful justice in your courtrooms,

The survivors of Israel will not practice lawlessness nor tell lies, nor will a deceitful message be found in their mouths, because they will eat and rest, with no one to cause fear."

A truthful saying is trusted forever, but the liar only for a moment.

True teachings were in his mouth, and falsehood was not found on his lips. He walked with me peacefully and righteously, and he turned many from sin.

However, if I did want to boast, I would not be a fool, because I would be telling the truth. But I am not going to do it in order to keep anyone from thinking more of me than what he sees and hears about me.
