“Make a joyful noise unto God, all ye lands: Sing forth the honour of his name” (Ps. 66:1–2a). “O Lord my God, thou art very great; thou art clothed with honour and majesty” (Ps. 104:1b). “Honour thy father and thy mother” (Exod. 20:12a). “Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another” (Rom. 12:10). “Let the elders that rule well be counted worthy of double honour, especially they who labour in the word and doctrine” (I Tim. 5:17). “If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master’s use, and prepared unto every good work” (II Tim. 2:21). John wrote of the heavenly city, “And the nations of them which are saved shall walk in the light of it; and the kings of the earth do bring their glory and honour into it” (Rev. 21:24).
