የሐዋርያት ሥራ 25 : 1 - 13
ፊስጦስም ወደ አውራጃው ገብቶ ከሦስት ቀን በኋላ ከቂሣርያ ወደ ኢየሩሳሌም ወጣ። የካህናቱ አለቆችና የአይሁድም ታላላቆች በጳውሎስ ላይ አመለከቱ፥ ጳውሎስንም ሲቃወም እንዲያደላላቸው እየለመኑ፥ በመንገድ ሸምቀው ይገድሉት ዘንድ አስበው ወደ ኢየሩሳሌም እንዲያስመጣው ማለዱት። ፊስጦስ ግን ጳውሎስ በቂሳርያ እንዲጠበቅ እርሱም ራሱ ወደዚያ ፈጥኖ ይሄድ ዘንድ እንዳለው መለሰላቸው፤ እንግዲህ በዚህ ሰው ክፋት ቢሆን ከእናንተ ዘንድ ያሉት ባለ ስልጣኖች ከእኔ ጋር ወርደው ይክሰሱት፡ አላቸው። በእነርሱም ዘንድ ከስምንት ወይም ከአስር የማይበልጥ ቀን ተቀምጦ ወደ ቂሳርያ ወረደ፤ በነገውም በፍርድ ወንበር ተቀምጦ ጳውሎስን ያመጡት ዘንድ አዘዘ። በቀረበም ጊዜ ከኢየሩሳሌም የወረዱት አይሁድ ከበውት ቆሙ፥ ይረቱበትም ዘንድ የማይችሉትን ብዙና ከባድ ክስ አነሱበት፤ ጳውሎስም ሲምዋገት፡— የአይሁድን ህግ ቢሆን መቅደስንም ቢሆን ቄሳርንም ቢሆን አንዳች ስንኳ አልበደልሁም፡ አለ። ፊስጦስ ግን አይሁድን ደስ ያሰኝ ዘንድ ወዶ ጳውሎስን፡— ወደ ኢየሩሳሌም ወጥተህ ስለዚህ ነገር ከዚያው በፊቴ ትፋረድ ዘንድ ትወዳለህን? ብሎ መለሰለት። ጳውሎስ ግን፡— እፋረድበት ዘንድ በሚገባኝ በቄሳር ፍርድ ወንበር ፊት ቆሜአለሁ። አንተው ደግሞ ፈጽመህ እንደምታውቅ አይሁድን ምንም አልበደልሁም። እንግዲህ በድዬ ወይም ሞት የሚገባውን ነገር አድርጌ እንደ ሆነ ከሞት ልዳን አልልም፤ እነዚህ የሚከሱኝ ክስ ከንቱ እንደሆነ ግን ለእነርሱ አሳልፎ ይሰጠኝ ዘንድ ማንም አይችልም፤ ወደ ቄሳር ይግባኝ ብዬአለሁ፡ አለ። በዚያን ጊዜ ፊስጦስ ከአማካሪዎቹ ጋር ተማክሮ፡— ወደ ቄሳር ይግባኝ ብለሃል፤ ወደ ቄሳር ትሄዳለህ ብሎ መለሰለት። ከጥቂት ቀንም በኋላ ንጉሡ አግሪጳ በርኒቄም ለፊስጦስ ሰላምታ እንዲያቀርቡ ወደ ቂሳርያ ወረዱ።
መዝሙረ ዳዊት 88 : 14 - 14
የዙፋንህ መሠረት ጽድቅና ፍርድ ነው፤ ምሕረትና እውነት በፊትህ ይሄዳሉ።
የማቴዎስ ወንጌል 13 : 44 - 51
ደግሞ መንግሥተ ሰማያት በእርሻ ውስጥ የተሰወረውን መዝገብ ትመስላለች፤ ሰውም አግኝቶ ሰወረው፥ ከደስታውም የተነሣ ሄዶ ያለውን ሁሉ ሸጠና ያን እርሻ ገዛ። ደግሞ መንግሥተ ሰማያት መልካምን ዕንቁ የሚሻ ነጋዴን ትመስላለች፤ ዋጋዋም እጅግ የበዛ አንዲት ዕንቁ በአገኘ ጊዜ ሄዶ ያለውን ሁሉ ሸጠና ገዛት። ደግሞ መንግሥተ ሰማያት ወደ ባሕር የተጣለች ከሁሉም ዓይነት የሰበሰበች መረብን ትመስላለች፤ በሞላችም ጊዜ ወደ ወደቡ አወጡአት፥ ተቀምጠውም መልካሙን ለቅመው በዕቃዎች ውስጥ አከማቹ ክፉውን ግን ወደ ውጭ ጣሉት። በዓለም መጨረሻ እንዲሁ ይሆናል፤ መላእክት መጥተው ኃጢአተኞችን ከጻድቃን መካከል ይለዩአቸዋል፥ ወደ እቶነ እሳትም ይጥሉአቸዋል፤ በዚያ ልቅሶና ጥርስ ማፋጨት ይሆናል። ኢየሱስም፡— ይህን ሁሉ አስተዋላችሁን? አላቸው አዎን፡ አሉት።

Acts 25 : 1 - 13
1 Now when Festus was come into the province, after three days he ascended from Caesarea to Jerusalem. 2 Then the high priest and the chief of the Jews informed him against Paul, and besought him, 3 And desired favour against him, that he would send for him to Jerusalem, laying wait in the way to kill him. 4 But Festus answered, that Paul should be kept at Caesarea, and that he himself would depart shortly thither. 5 Let them therefore, said he, which among you are able, go down with me, and accuse this man, if there be any wickedness in him. 6 And when he had tarried among them more than ten days, he went down unto Caesarea; and the next day sitting on the judgment seat commanded Paul to be brought. 7 And when he was come, the Jews which came down from Jerusalem stood round about, and laid many and grievous complaints against Paul, which they could not prove. 8 While he answered for himself, Neither against the law of the Jews, neither against the temple, nor yet against Caesar, have I offended any thing at all. 9 But Festus, willing to do the Jews a pleasure, answered Paul, and said, Wilt thou go up to Jerusalem, and there be judged of these things before me? 10 Then said Paul, I stand at Caesar’s judgment seat, where I ought to be judged: to the Jews have I done no wrong, as thou very well knowest. 11 For if I be an offender, or have committed any thing worthy of death, I refuse not to die: but if there be none of these things whereof these accuse me, no man may deliver me unto them. I appeal unto Caesar. 12 Then Festus, when he had conferred with the council, answered, Hast thou appealed unto Caesar? unto Caesar shalt thou go. 13 And after certain days king Agrippa and Bernice came unto Caesarea to salute Festus.
Psalms 88 : 14 - 14
14 Justice and judgment are the habitation of thy throne: mercy and truth shall go before thy face.
Matthew 13 : 44 - 51
44 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto treasure hid in a field; the which when a man hath found, he hideth, and for joy thereof goeth and selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field. 45 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a merchant man, seeking goodly pearls: 46 Who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had, and bought it. 47 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a net, that was cast into the sea, and gathered of every kind: 48 Which, when it was full, they drew to shore, and sat down, and gathered the good into vessels, but cast the bad away. 49 So shall it be at the end of the world: the angels shall come forth, and sever the wicked from among the just, 50 And shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth. 51 Jesus saith unto them, Have ye understood all these things? They say unto him, Yea, Lord.
