Luke 12:47-48
And that slave who knew his master’s will and didn’t prepare himself or do it will be severely beaten.But the one who did not know and did things deserving of blows will be beaten lightly. Much will be required of everyone who has been given much. And even more will be expected of the one who has been entrusted with more.

Matthew 12:36
I tell you that on the day of judgment people will have to account for every careless word they speak.

Amos 1:9-10

Ezekiel 29:18
“ Son of man, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon made his army labor strenuously against Tyre. Every head was made bald and every shoulder chafed, but he and his army received no compensation from Tyre for the labor he expended against it.
-
Hebrews 10:26-31
For if we deliberately sin after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins,but a terrifying expectation of judgment and the fury of a fire about to consume the adversaries.If anyone disregards Moses’ law, he dies without mercy, based on the testimony of two or three witnesses.How much worse punishment do you think one will deserve who has trampled on the Son of God, regarded as profane the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified, and insulted the Spirit of grace?For we know the One who has said, Vengeance belongs to Me, I will repay, and again, The Lord will judge His people.It is a terrifying thing to fall into the hands of the living God!

Isaiah 23:1-18
An oracle against Tyre: Wail, ships of Tarshish, for your haven has been destroyed. Word has reached them from the land of Cyprus.Mourn, inhabitants of the coastland, you merchants of Sidon; your agents have crossed the seaon many waters. Tyre’s revenue was the grain from Shihor— the harvest of the Nile. She was the merchant among the nations.Be ashamed Sidon, the stronghold of the sea, for the sea has spoken:“ I have not been in labor or given birth. I have not raised young men or brought up young women.”When the news reaches Egypt, they will be in anguish over the news about Tyre.Cross over to Tarshish; wail, inhabitants of the coastland!Is this your jubilant city, whose origin was in ancient times, whose feet have taken her to settle far away?Who planned this against Tyre, the bestower of crowns, whose traders are princes, whose merchants are the honored ones of the earth?The Lord of Hosts planned it, to desecrate all its glorious beauty, to disgrace all the honored ones of the earth.Overflow your land like the Nile, daughter of Tarshish; there is no longer anything to restrain you.He stretched out His hand over the sea; He made kingdoms tremble. The Lord has commanded that the Canaanite fortresses be destroyed.He said,“ You will not rejoice anymore, ravished young woman, daughter of Sidon. Get up and cross over to Cyprus— even there you will have no rest!”Look at the land of the Chaldeans— a people who no longer exist. Assyria destined it for desert creatures. They set up their siege towers and stripped its palaces. They made it a ruin.Wail, ships of Tarshish, because your fortress is destroyed!On that day Tyre will be forgotten for 70 years— the life span of one king. At the end of 70 years, what the song says about the prostitute will happen to Tyre:Pick up your lyre, stroll through the city, prostitute forgotten by men. Play skillfully, sing many a song, and you will be thought of again.And at the end of the 70 years, the Lord will restore Tyre and she will go back into business, prostituting herself with all the kingdoms of the world on the face of the earth.But her profits and wages will be dedicated to the Lord. They will not be stored or saved, for her profit will go to those who live in the Lord’s presence, to provide them with ample food and sacred clothing.

Ezekiel 26:1-21
In the eleventh year, on the first day of the month, the word of the Lord came to me:“ Son of man, because Tyre said about Jerusalem,‘ Good! The gateway to the peoples is shattered. She has been turned over to me. I will be filled now that she lies in ruins,’therefore this is what the Lord God says: See, I am against you, Tyre! I will raise up many nations against you, just as the sea raises its waves.They will destroy the walls of Tyre and demolish her towers. I will scrape the soil from her and turn her into a bare rock.She will become a place in the sea to spread nets, for I have spoken.” This is the declaration of the Lord God.“ She will become plunder for the nations,and her villages on the mainland will be slaughtered by the sword. Then they will know that I am Yahweh.”For this is what the Lord God says:“ See, I am about to bring King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon, king of kings, against Tyre from the north with horses, chariots, cavalry, and a vast company of troops.He will slaughter your villages on the mainland with the sword. He will set up siege works against you, and will build a ramp and raise a wall of shields against you.He will direct the blows of his battering rams against your walls and tear down your towers with his iron tools.His horses will be so numerous that their dust will cover you. When he enters your gates as an army entering a breached city, your walls will shake from the noise of cavalry, wagons, and chariots.He will trample all your streets with the hooves of his horses. He will slaughter your people with the sword, and your mighty pillars will fall to the ground.They will take your wealth as spoil and plunder your merchandise. They will also demolish your walls and tear down your beautiful homes. Then they will throw your stones, timber, and soil into the water.I will put an end to the noise of your songs, and the sound of your lyres will no longer be heard.I will turn you into a bare rock, and you will be a place to spread nets. You will never be rebuilt, for I, Yahweh, have spoken.” This is the declaration of the Lord God.This is what the Lord God says to Tyre:“ Won’t the coasts and islands quake at the sound of your downfall, when the wounded groan and slaughter occurs within you?All the princes of the sea will descend from their thrones, remove their robes, and strip off their embroidered garments. They will clothe themselves with trembling; they will sit on the ground, tremble continually, and be appalled at you.Then they will lament for you and say of you: How you have perished, city of renown, you who were populated from the seas! She who was powerful on the sea, she and all of her inhabitants inflicted their terror.Now the coastlands tremble on the day of your downfall; the islands in the sea are alarmed by your demise.”For this is what the Lord God says:“ When I make you a ruined city like other deserted cities, when I raise up the deep against you so that the mighty waters cover you,then I will bring you down to be with those who descend to the Pit, to the people of antiquity. I will make you dwell in the underworld like the ancient ruins, with those who descend to the Pit, so that you will no longer be inhabited or display your splendor in the land of the living.I will make you an object of horror, and you will no longer exist. You will be sought but will never be found again.” This is the declaration of the Lord God.

Hebrews 6:4-8
For it is impossible to renew to repentance those who were once enlightened, who tasted the heavenly gift, became companions with the Holy Spirit,tasted God’s good word and the powers of the coming age,and who have fallen away, because, to their own harm, they are recrucifying the Son of God and holding Him up to contempt.For ground that has drunk the rain that has often fallen on it and that produces vegetation useful to those it is cultivated for receives a blessing from God.But if it produces thorns and thistles, it is worthless and about to be cursed, and will be burned at the end.
