He that despiseth his neighbour sinneth: but he that hath mercy on the poor, happy is he.

For I desired mercy, and not sacrifice; and the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings.

He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the LORD require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?

Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.

Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.

For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich.

May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height;

And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.

And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour.

But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man.

For both he that sanctifieth and they who are sanctified are all of one: for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren,

And again, I will put my trust in him. And again, Behold I and the children which God hath given me.

And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,

For if ye love them which love you, what thank have ye? for sinners also love those that love them.

And if ye lend to them of whom ye hope to receive, what thank have ye? for sinners also lend to sinners, to receive as much again.

Be ye therefore merciful, as your Father also is merciful.

For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you.

If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them.

For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps:

Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.

My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth.

Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.

Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another.
