What eagerness to clear yourselves, what indignation, what fear, what longing, what zeal, what readiness to see justice done! At every point you have proved yourselves to be pure in this matter. 12 So even though I wrote to you, it was not for the sake of the one who did the wrong or for the sake of the one who was wronged, but to reveal to you, in the sight of God, your earnestness on our behalf. 13 Because of this, we have been comforted. And in addition to our own comfort, we rejoiced even more at the joy of Titus, because his spirit has been refreshed by all of you. 14 For if I have boasted to him about you, I was not put to shame. But just as everything we said to you was true, so our boasting about you to Titus has been found to be true as well. 15 And his affection for you is all the greater when he remembers your obedience, how you received him with fear and trembling. 16 I rejoice that I have complete confidence in you.

  • Josh 22:22-33 : 22 The Mighty One, God, the LORD—the Mighty One, God, the LORD! He knows, and let Israel also know! If it was in rebellion or treachery against the LORD, do not spare us today. 23 If we have built an altar to turn away from following the LORD, or to offer burnt offerings or grain offerings, or to offer fellowship sacrifices on it, may the LORD Himself call us to account. 24 We did this because we feared that someday your descendants might say to ours, ‘What do you have to do with the LORD, the God of Israel?’ 25 The LORD has made the Jordan a boundary between us and you—you Reubenites and Gadites! You have no share in the LORD.’ So your descendants might cause ours to stop worshiping the LORD. 26 That is why we said, ‘Let us build an altar—not for burnt offerings or sacrifices, 27 but as a witness between us and you and the generations that follow, that we will worship the LORD at His sanctuary with our burnt offerings, sacrifices, and fellowship offerings.’ Then in the future, your descendants will not be able to say to ours, ‘You have no share in the LORD.’ 28 And we said, ‘If they ever say this to us or to our descendants, we will answer: Look at the replica of the altar of the LORD, which our ancestors built—not for burnt offerings or sacrifices, but as a witness between us and you.’ 29 Far be it from us to rebel against the LORD and turn away from Him today by building an altar for burnt offerings, grain offerings, and sacrifices other than the altar of the LORD our God that stands in front of His tabernacle. 30 Phinehas the priest, the leaders of the congregation, and the heads of the clans of Israel who were with him heard the words spoken by the Reubenites, the Gadites, and the Manassites, and they were pleased. 31 Then Phinehas son of Eleazar, the priest, said to the Reubenites, the Gadites, and the Manassites, 'Today we know that the LORD is among us because you have not committed this act of treachery against Him. Instead, you have rescued the Israelites from the LORD's hand.' 32 Phinehas son of Eleazar the priest and the leaders returned from the Reubenites and the Gadites in the land of Gilead to the Israelites in the land of Canaan and brought back a report to them. 33 The Israelites were pleased with the report, and they praised God. They no longer talked about going to war against them to destroy the land where the Reubenites and the Gadites lived.
  • 1 Sam 23:19-21 : 19 The Ziphites went to Saul at Gibeah and said, 'Isn't David hiding among us in the strongholds in the woods, on the hill of Hachilah, south of Jeshimon?' 20 Now, O king, come down whenever you desire, and it will be our duty to surrender him into your hand. 21 Saul replied, 'May you be blessed by the LORD, for you have shown compassion on me.'
  • 2 Sam 4:10-12 : 10 When someone told me, 'Saul is dead,' thinking he was bringing me good news, I seized him and killed him in Ziklag. That was the reward I gave him for his news. 11 How much more, then, when wicked men have killed an innocent man in his own house and on his own bed! Should I not now demand his blood from your hand and remove you from the earth? 12 So David commanded his young men, and they killed them. They cut off their hands and feet and hung their bodies by the pool in Hebron. But they took the head of Ishbosheth and buried it in Abner's tomb in Hebron.
