You have set our iniquities before you, our secret sins in the light of your presence.Ĭall to me and I will answer you, and will tell you great and hidden things that you have not known. Your eyes saw my unformed substance in your book were written, every one of them, the days that were formed for me, when as yet there was none of them. My frame was not hidden from you, when I was being made in secret, intricately woven in the depths of the earth. Wonderful are your works my soul knows it very well. I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. The secret things belong to the Lord our God, but the things that are revealed belong to us and to our children forever, that we may do all the words of this law.įor you formed my inward parts you knitted me together in my mother's womb. It is the glory of God to conceal things, but the glory of kings is to search things out. If he listens to you, you have gained your brother.įor the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart. If your brother sins against you, go and tell him his fault, between you and him alone. Then each one will receive his commendation from God. Therefore do not pronounce judgment before the time, before the Lord comes, who will bring to light the things now hidden in darkness and will disclose the purposes of the heart. On that day when, according to my gospel, God judges the secrets of men by Christ Jesus. Would not God discover this? For he knows the secrets of the heart.Īrgue your case with your neighbor himself, and do not reveal another's secret,Īnd no creature is hidden from his sight, but all are naked and exposed to the eyes of him to whom we must give account. Therefore whatever you have said in the dark shall be heard in the light, and what you have whispered in private rooms shall be proclaimed on the housetops.įor God will bring every deed into judgment, with every secret thing, whether good or evil.įor nothing is hidden except to be made manifest nor is anything secret except to come to light. For nothing is hidden that will not be made manifest, nor is anything secret that will not be known and come to light.
