I-John

The transgression of the wicked saith within my heart, that there is no fear of God before his eyes.

Let not thine heart envy sinners: but be thou in the fear of the Lord all the day long.

How he met thee by the way, and smote the hindmost of thee, even all that were feeble behind thee, when thou wast faint and weary; and he feared not God.

By mercy and truth iniquity is purged: and by the fear of the Lord men depart from evil.

Thine own wickedness shall correct thee, and thy backslidings shall reprove thee: know therefore and see that it is an evil thing and bitter, that thou hast forsaken the Lord thy God, and that my fear is not in thee, saith the Lord God of hosts.
