And He shall bring forth your righteousness as the light, and your judgment as the noonday.

Light has sprung up for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart.

And your prayer [shall be] as the morning star, and life shall arise to you as from the noonday.

Who is among you that fears the Lord? Let him hearken to the voice of His servant; you that walk in darkness, and have no light, trust in the name of the Lord, and stay upon God.

and [if] you give bread to the hungry from your heart, and satisfy the afflicted soul; then shall your light spring up in darkness, and your darkness [shall be] as noon day;

Rejoice not against me, mine enemy; for I have fallen yet shall arise; for though I should sit in darkness, the Lord shall be a light to me.

I will bear the indignation of the Lord, because I have sinned against Him, until He make good my cause: He also shall maintain my right, and shall bring me out to the light, and I shall behold His righteousness.

But to you that fear My name shall the Sun of righteousness arise, and healing [shall be] in His wings: and you shall go forth, and bound as young calves let loose from bonds.

I have come as a light into the world, so that whoever believes in Me may not abide in darkness.

Alleluia. Give thanks to the Lord; for He is good; for His mercy [endures] forever.

Therefore be compassionate, just as your Father also is compassionate.

I speak not by a command, but I am testing the genuineness of your love by means of the diligence of others.

For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though He was rich, yet on account of you He became poor, that you through His poverty might become rich.

And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, just as also God in Christ forgave us.

Therefore be imitators of God as beloved children.

And walk in love, just as Christ also loved us and gave Himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a fragrant aroma.

for the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness, righteousness, and truth,

See then that you walk carefully, not as unwise, but as wise,

Therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, put on hearts of compassion, kindness, humility, meekness, patience;

forbearing one another and forgiving yourselves, if anyone should have a complaint against any; just as Christ forgave you, so you also [do].

For the saving grace of God has appeared to all men,

teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly in the present age,

If you know that He is righteous, you know that everyone who practices righteousness has been born of Him.

Little children, let no one deceive you. The [one] who practices righteousness is righteous, just as He is righteous.

By this the children of God and the children of the devil are manifest: Everyone who does not practice righteousness is not of God, nor is he who does not love his brother.
