1 Corinthians 13:13

Walk with the wise and become wise,
    for a companion of fools suffers harm.

Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven.

And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.

Know therefore that the Lord your God is God; he is the faithful God, keeping his covenant of love to a thousand generations of those who love him and keep his commandments.

But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.

If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing.

Make sure that nobody pays back wrong for wrong, but always strive to do what is good for each other and for everyone else.

But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.

“He himself bore our sins” in his body on the cross, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; “by his wounds you have been healed.”

Like the crackling of thorns under the pot, so is the laughter of fools. This too is meaningless.

If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you.

Like the crackling of thorns under the pot, so is the laughter of fools. This too is meaningless.

Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.

I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us.

This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him.

Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; 

The righteous lead blameless lives; blessed are their children after them.

If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you. 6 But when you ask, you must believe and not doubt, because the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind.

Taste and see that the Lord is good;
    blessed is the one who takes refuge in him.

Blessed is the one who does not walk in step with the wicked or stand in the way that sinners take or sit in the company of mockers,

Love does no harm to a neighbor. Therefore love is the fulfillment of the law.

For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened.

See, I am doing a new thing!
    Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?
I am making a way in the wilderness
    and streams in the wasteland.

“He himself bore our sins” in his body on the cross, so that we might die to sinsand live for righteousness; “by his wounds you have been healed.”

And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.

 I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.

For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—

 For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword,it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.

For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous
    and his ears are attentive to their prayer,
but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.

But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.

No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.

for it is God who works in you to will and to act in order to fulfill his good purpose.
