"A
righteous man who walks in his integrity -- How blessed are his sons
after him."
Proverbs
20:7
"To
do righteousness and justice is desired by the Lord rather than
sacrifice."
Proverbs
21:3
"Vindicate
me, O Lord, for I have walked in my integrity, and I have trusted in the
Lord without wavering. Examine me, O Lord, and try me; Test my mind and
my heart. For Your loving kindness is before my eyes, and I have walked
in Your truth."
Psalm
26:1-3
"The
integrity of the upright will guide them, but the falseness of the
treacherous will destroy them. Riches do not profit in the day of wrath,
but righteousness delivers from death. The righteousness of the
blameless will smooth his way, but the wicked will fall by his own
wickedness."
Proverbs
11:3-5
"O
Lord, who may abide in Your tent? Who may dwell on Your holy hill? He
who walks with integrity, and works righteousness, and speaks truth in
his heart. He does not slander with his tongue, nor does evil to his
neighbor, nor takes up a reproach against his friend; In whose eyes a
reprobate is despised, but who honors those who fear the Lord; He swears
to his own hurt and does not change; He does not put out his money at
interest, nor does he take a bribe against the innocent. He who does
these things will never be shaken."
Psalm
15:1-5
"He
who is faithful in a very little thing is faithful also in much; and he
who is unrighteous in a very little thing is unrighteous also in
much."
Luke
16:10
"Do
not let kindness and truth leave you; bind them around your neck, write
them on the tablet of your heart. So you will find favor and good repute
in the sight of God and man."
Proverbs
3:3-4
"Though
He slay me, I will hope in Him. Nevertheless I will argue my ways before
Him. Behold now, I have prepared my case; I know that I will be
vindicated."
Job
13:15, 18
"Let
your eyes look directly ahead and let your gaze be fixed straight in
front of you. Watch the path of your feet and all your ways will be
established. Do not turn to the right nor to the left; Turn your foot
from evil."
Proverbs
4:25-27
"Lying
lips are an abomination to the Lord, but those who deal faithfully are
His delight."
Proverbs
12:22
"A
man's discretion makes him slow to anger, and it is his glory to
overlook a transgression."
Proverbs
19:11
"Zacchaeus
stopped and said to the Lord, "Behold, Lord, half of my possessions
I will give to the poor, and if I have defrauded anyone of anything, I
will give back four times as much.' And Jesus said to him, 'Today
salvation has come to this house, because he, too, is a son of
Abraham.'"
Luke
19:8-10
"Do
not judge so that you will not be judged. For in the way you judge, you
will be judged; and by your standard of measure, it will be measured to
you. Why do you look at the speck that is in your brother's eye, but do
not notice the log that is in your own eye? Or how can you say to your
brother, 'Let me take the speck out of your eye,' and behold, the log is
in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye,
and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother's
eye."
Matthew
7:1-5
"But
the path of the righteous is like the light of dawn, that shines
brighter and brighter until the full day."
Proverbs
4:18
"My
lips certainly will not speak unjustly, nor will my tongue mutter
deceit. Far be it from me that I should declare you right; Till I die I
will not put away my integrity from me. I hold fast my righteousness and
will not let it go. My heart does not reproach any of my days."
Job
27:4-6
"He
who walks righteously and speaks with sincerity; He who rejects unjust
gain and shakes his hands so that they hold no bribe; He who stops his
ears from hearing about bloodshed and shuts his eyes from looking upon
evil; He will dwell on the heights, His refuge will be the impregnable
rock; His bread will be given him, His water will be sure."
Isaiah
33:15-16
"Listen
to me, you who pursue righteousness, who seek the Lord: Look to the rock
from which you were hewn and to the quarry from which you were
dug."
Isaiah
51:1
"My
son, if you will receive my sayings and treasure my commandments within
you, make your ear attentive to wisdom, incline your heart to
understanding; For if you cry for discernment, lift your voice for
understanding; If you seek her as silver and search for her as for
hidden treasures; Then you will discern the fear of the Lord and
discover the knowledge of God. For the Lord gives wisdom; From his mouth
come knowledge and understanding. He stores up sound wisdom for the
upright; He is a shield to those who walk in integrity, Guarding the
paths of justice, And he preserves the way of His godly ones. Then you
will discern righteousness and justice and equity and every good
course."
Proverbs
2:1-9
