SL # Verse Reference
1 All Scripture is God‐breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and 2 Timothy 3:16‐17
training in righteousness, so that the servant of God[a] may be thoroughly equipped
for every good work.
2 In the past God spoke to our ancestors through the prophets at many times and in Hebrews 1:1‐2
various ways, 2 but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he
appointed heir of all things, and through whom also he made the universe.
3 For everything that was written in the past was written to teach us, so that through the Romans 15:4
endurance taught in the Scriptures and the encouragement they provide we might
have hope.
4 “Every word of God is flawless; he is a shield to those who take refuge in him. Proverbs 30:5
5 Above all, you must understand that no prophecy of Scripture came about by the 2 Peter 1:20‐21
prophet’s own interpretation of things. For prophecy never had its origin in the human
will, but prophets, though human, spoke from God as they were carried along by the
Holy Spirit.
6 But let justice roll on like a river, righteousness like a never‐failing stream! Amos 5:24
7 But on Mount Zion will be deliverance; it will be holy, and Jacob will possess his Obadiah v17
inheritance.
8 When God saw what they did and how they turned from their evil ways, he relented Jonah 3:10
and did not bring on them the destruction he had threatened.
9 He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To Micah 6:8
act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.
10 The Lord is good, a refuge in times of trouble. He cares for those who trust in him, Nahum 1:7
11 For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord as the waters Habakkuk 2:14
cover the sea.
12 Seek the Lord, all you humble of the land, you who do what he commands. Seek Zephaniah 2:3
righteousness, seek humility; perhaps you will be sheltered on the day of the Lord’s
anger.
13 This is what the Lord Almighty says: “Give careful thought to your ways. Go up into the Haggai 1:7‐8
mountains and bring down timber and build my house, so that I may take pleasure in it
and be honoured,” says the Lord.
14 “This is what the Lord Almighty said: ‘Administer true justice; show mercy and Zechariah 7:9‐10
compassion to one another. Do not oppress the widow or the fatherless, the foreigner
or the poor. Do not plot evil against each other
15 Ever since the time of your ancestors you have turned away from my decrees and have Malachi 3:7
not kept them. Return to me, and I will return to you,” says the Lord Almighty.
16 Do everything without grumbling or arguing, so that you may become blameless and Philippians 2:14‐15
pure, “children of God without fault in a warped and crooked generation.” Then you
will shine among them like stars in the sky
17 Do not conform to the pattern of this world but be transformed by the renewing of Romans 12:2
your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good,
pleasing and perfect will.
18 For, "Whoever would love life and see good days must keep their tongue from evil and 1 Peter 3:10‐11
their lips from deceitful speech. 11 They must turn from evil and do good; they must
seek peace and pursue it.

weakness." Therefore, I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that
Christ's power may rest on me.
20 The tongue also is a fire, a world of evil among the parts of the body. It corrupts the James 3:6
whole body, sets the whole course of one’s life on fire, and is itself set on fire by hell.
21 but let the one who boasts boast about this: that they have the understanding to Jeremiah 9:24
know me, that I am the Lord, who exercises kindness, justice, and righteousness on
earth, for in these I delight," declares the Lord.
22 I love you, Lord, my strength. The Lord is my rock, my fortress, and my deliverer; my Psalm 18:1‐2
God is my rock, in whom I take refuge. He is my shield and the horn of my salvation, my
stronghold.
23 The commandments, “You shall not commit adultery,” “You shall not murder,” “You Romans 13:9
shall not steal,” “You shall not covet,” and whatever other command there may be, are
summed up in this one command: “Love your neighbour as yourself.”
24 See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of 1 John 3:1
God! And that is what we are! The reason the world does not know us is that it did not
know him.

knowledge; and to knowledge, self‐control; and to self‐control, perseverance; and to
perseverance, godliness; and to godliness, mutual affection; and to mutual affection,
love.
26 "I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. He cuts off every branch in me that John 15:1‐2
bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes so that it will be even
more fruitful".
27 But Ruth replied, “Don’t urge me to leave you or to turn back from you. Where you go I Ruth 1:16
will go, and where you stay I will stay. Your people will be my people and your God my
God.
28 I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I Galatians 2:20
live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for
me.
29 But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all the truth. He will not John 16: 13
speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to
come.
30 Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with Philippians 4:6‐7
thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends
all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
