GEN_20:4 But Abimelech had not come near her: and he said, Lord, wilt thou slay also a righteous nation?
GEN_20:5 Said he not unto me, She [is] my sister? and she, even she herself said, He [is] my brother: in the integrity of my heart and innocency of my hands have I done this.

GEN_20:11 And Abraham said, Because I thought, Surely the fear of God [is] not in this place; and they will slay me for my wife's sake.

MAT_6:14 For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:
MAT_6:15 But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
MAT_6:16 Moreover when ye fast, be not, as the hypocrites, of a sad countenance: for they disfigure their faces, that they may appear unto men to fast. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
MAT_6:17 But thou, when thou fastest, anoint thine head, and wash thy face;
MAT_6:18 That thou appear not unto men to fast, but unto thy Father which is in secret: and thy Father, which seeth in secret, shall reward thee openly.
MAT_6:19 Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal:

MAT_6:26 Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?
MAT_6:27 Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature?
MAT_6:28 And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin:
MAT_6:29 And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
MAT_6:30 Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, [shall he] not much more [clothe] you, O ye of little faith?
MAT_6:31 Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?
MAT_6:32 (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.
MAT_6:33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
MAT_6:34 Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day [is] the evil thereof.

PRO_1:20 Wisdom crieth without; she uttereth her voice in the streets:
PRO_1:21 She crieth in the chief place of concourse, in the openings of the gates: in the city she uttereth her words, [saying],
MATJ_5:34 But I say unto you, Swear not at all; neither by heaven; for it is God's throne:
MATJ_5:35 Nor by the earth; for it is his footstool: neither by Jerusalem; for it is the city of the great King.
MATJ_5:36 Neither shalt thou swear by thy head, because thou canst not make one hair white or black.

MATJ_5:38 Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth:
MATJ_5:39 But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.
