Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not fitting: but rather giving of thanks.

And said, Naked came I out of my mother’s womb, and naked shall I return there: the LORD gave, and the LORD has taken away; blessed be the name of the LORD.

A Psalm of David when he pretended madness before Abimelech, who drove him away, and he departed. I will bless the LORD at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth.

I will mention the lovingkindnesses of the LORD, and the praises of the LORD, according to all that the LORD has bestowed on us, and the great goodness toward the house of Israel, which he has bestowed on them according to his mercies, and according to the multitude of his lovingkindnesses.

And they departed from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer shame for his name.

I thank my God always on your behalf, for the grace of God which is given you by Jesus Christ;

I thank my God upon every remembrance of you,

Be anxious for nothing; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.

Strengthened with all might, according to his glorious power, unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness;

Giving thanks unto the Father, who has made us fit to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light:

And whatsoever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father by him.

For what thanks can we render to God again for you, for all the joy with which we joy for your sakes before our God;

In everything give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.

We are bound to thank God always for you, brethren, as it is fitting, because your faith grows exceedingly, and the love of every one of you all toward each other abounds;

But we are bound to give thanks always to God for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, because God has from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth:

And whatsoever you shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

If you shall ask anything in my name, I will do it.

You have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that you should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever you shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it to you.

And in that day you shall ask me nothing. Verily, verily, I say unto you, whatsoever you shall ask the Father in my name, he will give it to you.

These things have I spoken unto you in proverbs: but the time comes, when I shall no more speak unto you in proverbs, but I shall show you plainly of the Father.

And whatsoever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father by him.

By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name.

You also, as living stones, are built up into a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.

If any man speaks, let him speak as the oracles of God; if any man ministers, let him do it as of the ability which God gives: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion forever and ever. Amen.
