fist.

every land where they have been put to shame.

hire for man, nor any
hire for beast; neither was there any peace to him that went out or came in because of the
affliction: for I set all men
every one against his neighbour.

every man the truth to his neighbour;
execute the judgment of truth and peace in your gates:
These are the things you must do: Speak truth to one another, render true and sound judgments in your gates,

even you, O poor of the flock. And I took unto me two
staves; the one I called Beauty, and the other I called Bands; and I fed the flock.

Whereas
Edom saith, We are
impoverished, but we will return and build the
desolate places; thus saith the LORD of hosts, They shall build, but I will throw down; and they shall call them, The border of wickedness, and, The people against whom the LORD hath
indignation for
ever.

devastated, but we will rebuild the ruins,” this is what the LORD of Hosts says: “They may build, but I will
demolish. They will be called the Land of Wickedness, and a people with whom the LORD is
indignant forever.

magnified from the border of Israel.

yourselves will say, ‘The LORD is great—
even beyond the borders of Israel.’”

listen, and if you do not take it to heart to honor My name,” says the LORD of Hosts, “I will send a
curse among you, and I will

wearied the LORD with your words; yet you ask, “How have we
wearied Him?” By saying, “All who do evil are good in the sight of the LORD, and in them He delights,” or, “Where is the God of justice?”

yea, they that work wickedness are set up;
yea, they that
tempt God are
even delivered.

oven; and all the proud,
yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be
stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the LORD of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch.

stubble; the day is coming when I will set them
ablaze,” says the LORD of Hosts. “Not a root or branch will be left to them.”

For
verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one
jot or one
tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.

jot, not a stroke of a pen, will disappear from the Law until
everything is accomplished.
For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same?
If you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Do not even tax collectors do the same?
And if ye
salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not
even the publicans so?
And if you
greet only your brothers, what are you doing more than others? Do not
even Gentiles do the same?
Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.
Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.

Therefore all things

Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
Likewise, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit.
Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is
hewn down, and cast into the fire.
Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.
Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
Not
everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of My Father in heaven.
