Proverbs 12:21

¹³Now who will harm you if you become imitators of that which is good?

¹⁰no evil shall happen to you, neither shall any plague come near your dwelling.

²⁸We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, for those who are called according to his purpose.

¹²“Therefore you shall speak to them this word: ‘The LORD, the God of Israel says, “Every container should be filled with wine.”’ They will tell you, ‘Do we not certainly know that every container should be filled with wine?’ ¹³Then tell them, ‘The LORD says, “Behold, I will fill all the inhabitants of this land, even the kings who sit on David’s throne, the priests, the prophets, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, with drunkenness. ¹⁴I will dash them one against another, even the fathers and the sons together,” says the LORD: “I will not pity, spare, or have compassion, that I should not destroy them.”’”

³¹Therefore they will eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own schemes.

¹⁶You are filled with shame, and not glory. You will also drink and be exposed! The cup of the LORD’s right hand will come around to you, and disgrace will cover your glory.

⁶Return to her just as she returned, and repay her double as she did, and according to her works. In the cup which she mixed, mix to her double.

¹⁴The unfaithful will be repaid for his own ways; likewise a good man will be rewarded for his ways.

²²whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come. All are yours, ²³and you are Christ’s, and Christ is God’s.

¹⁷For our light affliction, which is for the moment, works for us more and more exceedingly an eternal weight of glory,
