They speak peace to their neighbor, but in their hearts, they set up an ambush. 8 Should I not punish them for these things? declares the Lord. Should I not avenge myself on such a nation as this? 9 I will raise weeping and wailing for the mountains and a dirge for the pastures in the wilderness, because they are burned up and desolate; no one passes through, and cattle cannot be heard anymore—birds of the sky and animals alike have fled and are gone.
  • Exod 23:1-9 : 1 Do not spread a false report, and do not join hands with a wicked person to be a malicious witness. 2 Do not follow the majority to do evil, and do not testify in a dispute to turn aside after the majority to pervert justice. 3 Do not show partiality to a poor person in his lawsuit. 4 If you come across your enemy's ox or donkey wandering off, you must certainly return it to him. 5 If you see the donkey of someone who hates you collapsing under its load, and you would refrain from helping, you must surely help with it. 6 Do not deny justice to your poor among you in their lawsuit. 7 Stay far from a false accusation; do not kill the innocent and the righteous, for I will not justify the wicked. 8 Do not accept a bribe, for a bribe blinds those who see and twists the words of the righteous. 9 Do not oppress a foreigner; you yourselves know how it feels to be foreigners, because you were foreigners in the land of Egypt. 10 For six years you are to sow your land and gather its produce. 11 But during the seventh year, you are to let it rest and leave it unplowed, so that the poor among your people may eat, and whatever they leave, the wild animals may eat. Do the same with your vineyard and olive grove. 12 For six days you shall do your work, but on the seventh day you shall rest, so that your ox and your donkey may have rest, and the son of your servant and the foreigner may be refreshed. 13 Be careful to do all that I have said to you. Do not invoke the names of other gods; they must not be heard on your lips. 14 Three times a year you are to celebrate a festival to me. 15 Observe the Festival of Unleavened Bread; for seven days eat unleavened bread, as I commanded you, at the appointed time in the month of Aviv, for in that month you came out of Egypt. Do not appear before me empty-handed. 16 Celebrate the Feast of Harvest with the firstfruits of your work, of what you sow in the field, and the Feast of Ingathering at the end of the year, when you gather in your produce from the field. 17 Three times a year all your males shall appear before the Sovereign Lord, the LORD. 18 Do not offer the blood of my sacrifice along with anything containing yeast, and do not leave the fat of my festival offering until morning. 19 Bring the best of the firstfruits of your land to the house of the LORD your God. Do not cook a young goat in its mother's milk. 20 See, I am sending an angel ahead of you to guard you along the way and to bring you to the place I have prepared. 21 Pay attention to him and listen to his voice. Do not rebel against him, for he will not forgive your rebellion, since my name is in him. 22 If you listen carefully to his voice and do everything I say, I will be an enemy to your enemies and oppose those who oppose you. 23 My angel will go ahead of you and bring you into the land of the Amorites, Hittites, Perizzites, Canaanites, Hivites, and Jebusites, and I will wipe them out. 24 Do not bow down to their gods or worship them or follow their practices. Instead, you must demolish them completely and shatter their sacred pillars. 25 Worship the LORD your God, and he will bless your food and water. I will take away sickness from among you. 26 None will miscarry or be barren in your land, and I will fulfill the number of your days. 27 I will send my terror ahead of you and throw into confusion every nation you encounter. I will make all your enemies turn their backs and run. 28 I will send the hornet ahead of you to drive out the Hivites, Canaanites, and Hittites from your path. 29 I will not drive them out before you in a single year, because the land would become desolate, and the wild animals would multiply against you. 30 Little by little I will drive them out before you, until you are fruitful and take possession of the land. 31 I will establish your borders from the Red Sea to the Mediterranean Sea, and from the wilderness to the Euphrates River. I will give into your hands the inhabitants of the land, and you will drive them out before you. 32 Do not make a covenant with them or with their gods. 33 They must not live in your land, or they will cause you to sin against me, because if you worship their gods, it will become a snare to you.
  • Titus 3:2 : 2 Speak evil of no one, avoid quarrels, be gentle, and show perfect courtesy to everyone.
