2 Peter 2 7-2 Peter 2 9
and if He rescued righteous Lot, distressed by the unrestrained behavior of the immoral( for as he lived among them, that righteous man tormented himself day by day with the lawless deeds he saw and heard)—then the Lord knows how to rescue the godly from trials and to keep the unrighteous under punishment until the day of judgment,

1 Corinthians 4 7
For who makes you so superior? What do you have that you didn’t receive? If, in fact, you did receive it, why do you boast as if you hadn’t received it?

2 Chronicles 33 12-2 Chronicles 33 24
When he was in distress, he sought the favor of Yahweh his God and earnestly humbled himself before the God of his ancestors.He prayed to Him, so He heard his petition and granted his request, and brought him back to Jerusalem, to his kingdom. So Manasseh came to know that Yahweh is God.After this, he built the outer wall of the city of David from west of Gihon in the valley to the entrance of the Fish Gate; he brought it around the Ophel, and he heightened it considerably. He also placed military commanders in all the fortified cities of Judah.He removed the foreign gods and the idol from the Lord’s temple, along with all the altars that he had built on the mountain of the Lord’s temple and in Jerusalem, and he threw them outside the city.He built the altar of the Lord and offered fellowship and thank offerings on it. Then he told Judah to serve Yahweh, the God of Israel.However, the people still sacrificed at the high places, but only to Yahweh their God.The rest of the events of Manasseh’s reign, along with his prayer to his God and the words of the seers who spoke to him in the name of Yahweh, the God of Israel, are written in the Records of Israel’s Kings.His prayer and how God granted his request, and all his sin and unfaithfulness and the sites where he built high places and set up Asherah poles and carved images before he humbled himself, they are written in the Records of Hozai.Manasseh rested with his fathers, and he was buried in his own house. His son Amon became king in his place.Amon was 22 years old when he became king and reigned two years in Jerusalem.He did what was evil in the Lord’s sight just as his father Manasseh had done. Amon sacrificed to all the carved images that his father Manasseh had made, and he served them.But he did not humble himself before the Lord like his father Manasseh humbled himself; instead, Amon increased his guilt.So his servants conspired against him and put him to death in his own house.

Luke 23:39-43
Then one of the criminals hanging there began to yell insults at Him:“ Aren’t You the Messiah? Save Yourself and us!”But the other answered, rebuking him:“ Don’t you even fear God, since you are undergoing the same punishment?We are punished justly, because we’re getting back what we deserve for the things we did, but this man has done nothing wrong.”Then he said,“ Jesus, remember me when You come into Your kingdom!”And He said to him,“ I assure you: Today you will be with Me in paradise.”
