-
For I, the LORD, love justice; I hate robbery and iniquity; in My faithfulness I will give them their recompense and make an everlasting covenant with them.He has shown you, O man, what is good. And what does the LORD require of you but to act justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God?And over all these virtues put on love, which is the bond of perfect unity.And now these three remain: faith, hope, and love; but the greatest of these is love.So too, faith by itself, if it does not result in action, is dead.
