Ephesians 5:12

τὰ γὰρ κρυφῇ γινόμενα ὑπ' αὐτῶν αἰσχρόν ἐστιν καὶ λέγειν

For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret.

Ephesians 5:3

πορνεία δὲ καὶ πᾶσα ἀκαθαρσία ἢ πλεονεξία μηδὲ ὀνομαζέσθω ἐν ὑμῖν καθὼς πρέπει ἁγίοις

But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints;

Romans 2:16

ἐν ἡμέρᾳ ὅτε κρίνει ὁ θεὸς τὰ κρυπτὰ τῶν ἀνθρώπων κατὰ τὸ εὐαγγέλιόν μου διὰ Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ

In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel.

Jeremiah 23:24

אִם-יִסָּתֵר אִישׁ בַּמִּסְתָּרִים וַאֲנִי לֹֽא-אֶרְאֶנּוּ נְאֻם-יְהוָה הֲלוֹא אֶת-הַשָּׁמַיִם וְאֶת-הָאָרֶץ אֲנִי מָלֵא נְאֻם-יְהוָֽה׃

Can any hide himself in secret places that I shall not see him? saith the LORD. Do not I fill heaven and earth? saith the LORD.

Ecclesiastes 12:14

כִּי אֶת-כָּל-מַֽעֲשֶׂה הָאֱלֹהִים יָבִא בְמִשְׁפָּט עַל כָּל-נֶעְלָם אִם-טוֹב וְאִם-רָֽע׃

For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil.

2 Samuel 12:12

כִּי אַתָּה עָשִׂיתָ בַסָּתֶר וַֽאֲנִי אֶֽעֱשֶׂה אֶת-הַדָּבָר הַזֶּה נֶגֶד כָּל-יִשְׂרָאֵל וְנֶגֶד הַשָּֽׁמֶשׁ׃

For thou didst it secretly: but I will do this thing before all Israel, and before the sun.

Romans 1:24

Διὸ καὶ παρέδωκεν αὐτοὺς ὁ θεὸς ἐν ταῖς ἐπιθυμίαις τῶν καρδιῶν αὐτῶν εἰς ἀκαθαρσίαν τοῦ ἀτιμάζεσθαι τὰ σώματα αὐτῶν ἐν ἑαυτοῖς

Wherefore God also gave up them to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:

Proverbs 9:17

מַֽיִם-גְּנוּבִים יִמְתָּקוּ וְלֶחֶם סְתָרִים יִנְעָֽם׃

Stolen waters are sweet, and bread eaten in secret is pleasant.

Revelation 20:12

καὶ εἶδον τοὺς νεκρούς μικρούς καὶ μεγάλους ἑστῶτας ἐνώπιον τοῦ θεοῦ καὶ βιβλία ἠνεῳχθησαν· καὶ βιβλίον ἄλλο ἠνεῳχθη ὅ ἐστιν τῆς ζωῆς καὶ ἐκρίθησαν οἱ νεκροὶ ἐκ τῶν γεγραμμένων ἐν τοῖς βιβλίοις κατὰ τὰ ἔργα αὐτῶν

And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.

1 Peter 4:3

ἀρκετὸς γὰρ ἡμῖν ὁ παρεληλυθὼς χρόνος τοῦ βίου τὸ θέλημα τῶν ἐθνῶν κατεργάσασθαι πεπορευμένους ἐν ἀσελγείαις ἐπιθυμίαις οἰνοφλυγίαις κώμοις πότοις καὶ ἀθεμίτοις εἰδωλολατρείαις·

For the time past of our life may suffice us to have wrought the will of the Gentiles, when we walked in lasciviousness, lusts, excess of wine, revellings, banquetings, and abominable idolatries:

Luke 12:1

Ἐν οἷς ἐπισυναχθεισῶν τῶν μυριάδων τοῦ ὄχλου ὥστε καταπατεῖν ἀλλήλους ἤρξατο λέγειν πρὸς τοὺς μαθητὰς αὐτοῦ πρῶτον Προσέχετε ἑαυτοῖς ἀπὸ τῆς ζύμης τῶν Φαρισαίων ἥτις ἐστὶν ὑπόκρισις

In the mean time, when there were gathered together an innumerable multitude of people, insomuch that they trode one upon another, he began to say unto his disciples first of all, Beware ye of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.
