American Standard Version of 1901
Versliste
That thou mayest walk in the way of good men,And keep the paths of the righteous.
For the upright shall dwell in the {Or, earth}land,And the perfect shall remain in it.
But the wicked shall be cut off from the {Or, earth}land,And the treacherous shall be rooted out of it.
Howbeit the firm foundation of God standeth, having this seal, {Numbers 16:5?}The Lord knoweth them that are his: and, {Isaiah 26:13?}Let every one that nameth the name of the Lord depart from unrighteousness.
Now in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some unto honor, and some unto dishonor.
If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honor, sanctified, meet for the master's use, prepared unto every good work.
But flee youthful lusts, and follow after righteousness, faith, love, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.
