Pure


The words and promises of the Lord are pure words, like silver refined in an earthen furnace, purified seven times over.

Reverence for the Lord is pure, lasting forever. The laws of the Lord are true; each one is fair.

Who can climb Mount God? Who can scale the holy north-face? Only the clean-handed, only the pure-hearted; Men who won't cheat, women who won't seduce.

Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me.

"Oh, dear people, will you listen to me now? Israel, will you follow my map? I'll make short work of your enemies, give your foes the back of my hand. I'll send the God-haters cringing like dogs, never to be heard from again. You'll feast on my fresh-baked bread spread with butter and rock-pure honey."

So rejoice in the Lord and be glad, all you who obey him! Shout for joy, all you whose hearts are pure!

Psalm 12:6 Psalm 19:9 Psalm 24:3 Psalm 51:10 Psalm 81:13 Psalm 32:11

Choose my instruction rather than silver, and knowledge rather than pure gold. Proverbs 8:10
