No one cares about being fair and honest. The people’s lawsuits are based on lies. They conceive evil deeds and then give birth to sin.

Those who plant injustice will harvest disaster, and their reign of terror will come to an end.

The poor, deluded fool feeds on ashes. He trusts something that can’t help him at all. Yet he cannot bring himself to ask,“ Is this idol that I’m holding in my hand a lie?”

Don’t make your living by extortion or put your hope in stealing. And if your wealth increases, don’t make it the center of your life.

“ They have planted the wind and will harvest the whirlwind. The stalks of grain wither and produce nothing to eat. And even if there is any grain, foreigners will eat it.

If you think you are too important to help someone, you are only fooling yourself. You are not that important.

Don’t be misled— you cannot mock the justice of God. You will always harvest what you plant.Those who live only to satisfy their own sinful nature will harvest decay and death from that sinful nature. But those who live to please the Spirit will harvest everlasting life from the Spirit.

Those who worship false gods turn their backs on all God’s mercies.

Don’t be fooled by those who try to excuse these sins, for the anger of God will fall on all who disobey him.

Why? Because you have turned from the God who can save you. You have forgotten the Rock who can hide you. So you may plant the finest grapevines and import the most expensive seedlings.They may sprout on the day you set them out; yes, they may blossom on the very morning you plant them, but you will never pick any grapes from them. Your only harvest will be a load of grief and unrelieved pain.

Yes, strength and wisdom are his; deceivers and deceived are both in his power.

My experience shows that those who plant trouble and cultivate evil will harvest the same.
