Wealth brings many new friends, but a poor man is deserted by his friend. A false witness will not go unpunished, and he who breathes out lies will not escape.

highlighted Matthew 28:1-15 ESV
Then Jesus said to them, "Do not be afraid; go and tell my brothers to go to Galilee, and there they will see me."While they were going, behold, some of the guard went into the city and told the chief priests all that had taken place.And when they had assembled with the elders and taken counsel, they gave a sufficient sum of money to the soldiersand said, "Tell people, 'His disciples came by night and stole him away while we were asleep.'And if this comes to the governor's ears, we will satisfy him and keep you out of trouble."So they took the money and did as they were directed. And this story has been spread among the Jews to this day. Now after the Sabbath, toward the dawn of the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to see the tomb.And behold, there was a great earthquake, for an angel of the Lord descended from heaven and came and rolled back the stone and sat on it.His appearance was like lightning, and his clothing white as snow.And for fear of him the guards trembled and became like dead men.But the angel said to the women, "Do not be afraid, for I know that you seek Jesus who was crucified.He is not here, for he has risen, as he said. Come, see the place where he lay.Then go quickly and tell his disciples that he has risen from the dead, and behold, he is going before you to Galilee; there you will see him. See, I have told you."So they departed quickly from the tomb with fear and great joy, and ran to tell his disciples.And behold, Jesus met them and said, "Greetings!" And they came up and took hold of his feet and worshiped him.

And those who passed by derided him, wagging their headsand saying, "You who would destroy the temple and rebuild it in three days, save yourself! If you are the Son of God, come down from the cross."So also the chief priests, with the scribes and elders, mocked him, saying,"He saved others; he cannot save himself. He is the King of Israel; let him come down now from the cross, and we will believe in him.He trusts in God; let God deliver him now, if he desires him. For he said, 'I am the Son of God.'"And the robbers who were crucified with him also reviled him in the same way.Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land until the ninth hour.And about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, "Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani?" that is, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?"And some of the bystanders, hearing it, said, "This man is calling Elijah."And one of them at once ran and took a sponge, filled it with sour wine, and put it on a reed and gave it to him to drink.But the others said, "Wait, let us see whether Elijah will come to save him."And Jesus cried out again with a loud voice and yielded up his spirit.And behold, the curtain of the temple was torn in two, from top to bottom. And the earth shook, and the rocks were split.The tombs also were opened. And many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep were raised,and coming out of the tombs after his resurrection they went into the holy city and appeared to many.When the centurion and those who were with him, keeping watch over Jesus, saw the earthquake and what took place, they were filled with awe and said, "Truly this was the Son of God!"

Now at the feast the governor was accustomed to release for the crowd any one prisoner whom they wanted.And they had then a notorious prisoner called Barabbas.So when they had gathered, Pilate said to them, "Whom do you want me to release for you: Barabbas, or Jesus who is called Christ?"For he knew that it was out of envy that they had delivered him up.Besides, while he was sitting on the judgment seat, his wife sent word to him, "Have nothing to do with that righteous man, for I have suffered much because of him today in a dream."Now the chief priests and the elders persuaded the crowd to ask for Barabbas and destroy Jesus.The governor again said to them, "Which of the two do you want me to release for you?" And they said, "Barabbas."Pilate said to them, "Then what shall I do with Jesus who is called Christ?" They all said, "Let him be crucified!"And he said, "Why, what evil has he done?" But they shouted all the more, "Let him be crucified!"So when Pilate saw that he was gaining nothing, but rather that a riot was beginning, he took water and washed his hands before the crowd, saying, "I am innocent of this man's blood; see to it yourselves."And all the people answered, "His blood be on us and on our children!"Then he released for them Barabbas, and having scourged Jesus, delivered him to be crucified.Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the governor's headquarters, and they gathered the whole battalion before him.And they stripped him and put a scarlet robe on him,and twisting together a crown of thorns, they put it on his head and put a reed in his right hand. And kneeling before him, they mocked him, saying, "Hail, King of the Jews!"And they spit on him and took the reed and struck him on the head.And when they had mocked him, they stripped him of the robe and put his own clothes on him and led him away to crucify him.

They said, "What is that to us? See to it yourself."And throwing down the pieces of silver into the temple, he departed, and he went and hanged himself.

highlighted Proverbs 18:20-24 ESV
From the fruit of a man's mouth his stomach is satisfied; he is satisfied by the yield of his lips. Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruits. He who finds a wife finds a good thing and obtains favor from the Lord. The poor use entreaties, but the rich answer roughly. A man of many companions may come to ruin, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.

It is not good to be partial to the wicked or to deprive the righteous of justice. A fool's lips walk into a fight, and his mouth invites a beating. A fool's mouth is his ruin, and his lips are a snare to his soul.

for whoever has entered God's rest has also rested from his works as God did from his.Let us therefore strive to enter that rest, so that no one may fall by the same sort of disobedience.For 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.So then, there remains a Sabbath rest for the people of God,

Now Peter was sitting outside in the courtyard. And a servant girl came up to him and said, "You also were with Jesus the Galilean."But he denied it before them all, saying, "I do not know what you mean."And when he went out to the entrance, another servant girl saw him, and she said to the bystanders, "This man was with Jesus of Nazareth."And again he denied it with an oath: "I do not know the man."After a little while the bystanders came up and said to Peter, "Certainly you too are one of them, for your accent betrays you."Then he began to invoke a curse on himself and to swear, "I do not know the man." And immediately the rooster crowed.And Peter remembered the saying of Jesus, "Before the rooster crows, you will deny me three times." And he went out and wept bitterly.

Then those who had seized Jesus led him to Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and the elders had gathered.And Peter was following him at a distance, as far as the courtyard of the high priest, and going inside he sat with the guards to see the end.Now the chief priests and the whole council were seeking false testimony against Jesus that they might put him to death,but they found none, though many false witnesses came forward. At last two came forwardand said, "This man said, 'I am able to destroy the temple of God, and to rebuild it in three days.'"And the high priest stood up and said, "Have you no answer to make? What is it that these men testify against you?"But Jesus remained silent. And the high priest said to him, "I adjure you by the living God, tell us if you are the Christ, the Son of God."
