⁴ For thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness: Evil shall not sojourn with thee.

¹⁷ I know also, my God, that thou triest the heart, and hast pleasure in uprightness. As for me, in the uprightness of my heart I have willingly offered all these things: and now have I seen with joy thy people, that are present here, offer willingly unto thee.

²³ And the city hath no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine upon it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the lamp thereof `is' the Lamb.

¹³ But, according to his promise, we look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.

¹⁴ Follow after peace with all men, and the sanctification without which no man shall see the Lord:

²³ Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my word: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.

¹⁷ Ye have wearied Jehovah with your words. Yet ye say, Wherein have we wearied him? In that ye say, Every one that doeth evil is good in the sight of Jehovah, and he delighteth in them; or where is the God of justice?

¹³ Surely the righteous shall give thanks unto thy name: The upright shall dwell in thy presence. Psalm 141 A Psalm of David.

⁷ He that worketh deceit shall not dwell within my house: He that speaketh falsehood shall not be established before mine eyes.

²⁰ Shall the throne of wickedness have fellowship with thee, Which frameth mischief by statute?

¹⁵ To show that Jehovah is upright; He is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.

²¹ These things hast thou done, and I kept silence; Thou thoughtest that I was altogether such a one as thyself: `But' I will reprove thee, and set `them' in order before thine eyes.

⁵ Jehovah trieth the righteous; But the wicked and him that loveth violence his soul hateth.

²⁷ and there shall in no wise enter into it anything unclean, or he that maketh an abomination and a lie: but only they that are written in the Lamb's book of life.
