Zechariah 3 (KJV)

1 And he shewed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of the Lord, and Satan standing at his right hand to resist him.
2 And the Lord said unto Satan, The Lord rebuke (indict) thee, O Satan; even the Lord that hath chosen Jerusalem rebuke (indict) thee: is not this a brand plucked out of the fire?






3 Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments, and stood before the angel.
4 And he answered and spake unto those that stood before him, saying, Take away the filthy garments from him. And unto him he said, Behold, I have caused thine iniquity (wickedness) to pass from thee, and I will clothe thee with change of raiment (clothes).
5 And I said, Let them set a fair mitre (clean turban) upon his head. So they set a fair mitre (clean turban) upon his head, and clothed him with garments. And the angel of the Lord stood by.







6 And the angel of the Lord protested (testified) unto Joshua, saying,
7 Thus saith the Lord of hosts; If thou wilt walk in my ways, and if thou wilt keep my charge (requirements), then thou shalt also judge my house, and shalt also keep my courts, and I will give thee places to walk among these that stand by.

1 Peter 5 (KJV)

2 Feed the flock of God which is among you, taking the oversight thereof, not by constraint (a limitation or restriction.), but willingly; not for filthy lucre (money, esp. when regarded as sordid or distasteful or gained in a dishonorable way.), but of a ready mind;
3 Neither as being lords over God's heritage, but being examples to the flock.
4 And when the chief Shepherd shall appear, ye shall receive a crown of glory that fadeth not away.




5 Likewise, ye younger, submit yourselves unto the elder. Yea, all of you be subject (concerned) one to another, and be clothed with humility: for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble.




8 Be sober, be vigilant (attentive); because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:

James 4 (KJV)


3 Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss (not quite right; inappropriate or out of place), that ye may consume it upon your lusts.








4 Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity (venom, violence, competition) with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God.
5 Do ye think that the scripture saith in vain, The spirit that dwelleth in us lusteth to envy?








6 But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble.










 7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.









8 Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded.
9 Be afflicted, and mourn, and weep: let your laughter be turned to mourning, and your joy to heaviness.
10 Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.





11 Speak not evil one of another, brethren. He that speaketh evil of his brother, and judgeth his brother, speaketh evil of the law, and judgeth the law: but if thou judge the law, thou art not a doer of the law, but a judge.
12 There is one lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy: who art thou that judgest another?








13 Go to now, ye that say, To day or to morrow we will go into such a city, and continue there a year, and buy and sell, and get gain:
14 Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.
15 For that ye ought to say, If the Lord will, we shall live, and do this, or that.
16 But now ye rejoice in your boastings: all such rejoicing is evil.




 17 Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin.
