  • Proverbs 15:8
    The Lord detests the sacrifice of the wicked, but he delights in the prayers of the upright.
  • Job 31:1-40
    “ I made a covenant with my eyes not to look with lust at a young woman.For what has God above chosen for us? What is our inheritance from the Almighty on high?Isn’t it calamity for the wicked and misfortune for those who do evil?Doesn’t he see everything I do and every step I take?“ Have I lied to anyone or deceived anyone?Let God weigh me on the scales of justice, for he knows my integrity.If I have strayed from his pathway, or if my heart has lusted for what my eyes have seen, or if I am guilty of any other sin,then let someone else eat the crops I have planted. Let all that I have planted be uprooted.“ If my heart has been seduced by a woman, or if I have lusted for my neighbor’s wife,then let my wife serve another man; let other men sleep with her.For lust is a shameful sin, a crime that should be punished.It is a fire that burns all the way to hell. It would wipe out everything I own.“ If I have been unfair to my male or female servants when they brought their complaints to me,how could I face God? What could I say when he questioned me?For God created both me and my servants. He created us both in the womb.“ Have I refused to help the poor, or crushed the hopes of widows?Have I been stingy with my food and refused to share it with orphans?No, from childhood I have cared for orphans like a father, and all my life I have cared for widows.Whenever I saw the homeless without clothes and the needy with nothing to wear,did they not praise me for providing wool clothing to keep them warm?“ If I raised my hand against an orphan, knowing the judges would take my side,then let my shoulder be wrenched out of place! Let my arm be torn from its socket!That would be better than facing God’s judgment. For if the majesty of God opposes me, what hope is there?“ Have I put my trust in money or felt secure because of my gold?Have I gloated about my wealth and all that I own?“ Have I looked at the sun shining in the skies, or the moon walking down its silver pathway,and been secretly enticed in my heart to throw kisses at them in worship?If so, I should be punished by the judges, for it would mean I had denied the God of heaven.“ Have I ever rejoiced when disaster struck my enemies, or become excited when harm came their way?No, I have never sinned by cursing anyone or by asking for revenge.“ My servants have never said,‘ He let others go hungry.’I have never turned away a stranger but have opened my doors to everyone.“ Have I tried to hide my sins like other people do, concealing my guilt in my heart?Have I feared the crowd or the contempt of the masses, so that I kept quiet and stayed indoors?“ If only someone would listen to me! Look, I will sign my name to my defense. Let the Almighty answer me. Let my accuser write out the charges against me.I would face the accusation proudly. I would wear it like a crown.For I would tell him exactly what I have done. I would come before him like a prince.“ If my land accuses me and all its furrows cry out together,or if I have stolen its crops or murdered its owners,then let thistles grow on that land instead of wheat, and weeds instead of barley.” Job’s words are ended.

  • Psalms 44:17-21
    All this has happened though we have not forgotten you. We have not violated your covenant.Our hearts have not deserted you. We have not strayed from your path.Yet you have crushed us in the jackal’s desert home. You have covered us with darkness and death.If we had forgotten the name of our God or spread our hands in prayer to foreign gods,God would surely have known it, for he knows the secrets of every heart.

    For I assisted the poor in their need and the orphans who required help.I helped those without hope, and they blessed me. And I caused the widows’ hearts to sing for joy.Everything I did was honest. Righteousness covered me like a robe, and I wore justice like a turban.I served as eyes for the blind and feet for the lame.I was a father to the poor and assisted strangers who needed help.I broke the jaws of godless oppressors and plucked their victims from their teeth.
  • Job 27:6-7

  • Job 22:5-9
    No, it’s because of your wickedness! There’s no limit to your sins.“ For example, you must have lent money to your friend and demanded clothing as security. Yes, you stripped him to the bone.You must have refused water for the thirsty and food for the hungry.You probably think the land belongs to the powerful and only the privileged have a right to it!You must have sent widows away empty handed and crushed the hopes of orphans.
