What will you do on the day of reckoning, when disaster comes from afar? To whom will you run for help? Where will you leave your riches?

Stop doing wrong, learn to do right! Seek justice, encourage the oppressed. Defend the cause of the fatherless, plead the case of the widow.

Those who walk uprightly enter into peace; they find rest as they lie in death.

Do not be afraid, for I am with you. Do not turn away, for I am your God. I have strengthened you, and I have assisted you, and the right hand of my just one has upheld you.

Woe to the wicked! Disaster is upon them! They will be paid back for what their hands have done.

Why spend money on what is not bread, and your labor on what does not satisfy? Listen, listen to me, and eat what is good, and your soul will delight in the richest of fare.

Tell the righteous it will be well with them, for they will enjoy the fruit of their deeds.
