| He that trusteth in his own heart is a fool: but whoso walketh wisely, he shall be delivered.1 |
| Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man: but every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed.2 – Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you.3 |
| Lot lifted up his eyes, and beheld all the plain of Jordan, that it was well watered every where, … even as the garden of the Lord. … Then Lot chose him all the plain of Jordan. … But the men of Sodom were wicked and sinners before the Lord exceedingly.4 – [God] delivered just Lot, vexed with the filthy conversation of the wicked. … The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations.5 – Yea, he shall be holden up: for God is able to make him stand.6 |
