I have chosen him. He must direct his children to live in the way that pleases me. And he must direct the members of his family after him to do the same. So he must guide all of them in doing what is right and fair. Then I, the Lord, will do for Abraham what I have promised him.”

Tell the older men that in anything they do, they must not go too far. They must be worthy of respect. They must control themselves. They must have true faith. They must love others. They must not give up.

Do what is good. Set an example for them in everything. When you teach, be honest and serious.

Cornelius and all his family were faithful and worshiped God. He gave freely to people who were in need. He prayed to God regularly.

But suppose you don’t want to serve him. Then choose for yourselves right now whom you will serve. You can choose the gods your people served east of the Euphrates River. Or you can serve the gods of the Amorites. After all, you are living in their land. But as for me and my family, we will serve the Lord.”

I will be careful to lead a life that is without blame. When will you come and help me? In my own home I will lead a life that is without blame.I won’t look at anything that is evil and call it good. I hate the acts of people who aren’t faithful to you. I won’t have anything to do with those things.I will stay away from those whose hearts are twisted. I won’t have anything to do with what is evil.I will get rid of anyone who tells lies about their neighbor in secret. I won’t put up with anyone whose eyes and heart are proud.I will look with favor on the faithful people in the land. They will live with me. Those whose lives are without blame will serve me.No one who lies and cheats will live in my house. No one who tells lies will serve me.Every morning I will get rid of all the sinful people in the land. I will remove from the city of the Lord everyone who does what is evil.

Finally, my brothers and sisters, always think about what is true. Think about what is noble, right and pure. Think about what is lovely and worthy of respect. If anything is excellent or worthy of praise, think about those kinds of things.
