Righteousness (3/5)

There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way to death.There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.
For God is not unjust so as to overlook your work and the love that you have shown for his name in serving the saints, as you still do.For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister.
In you, O Lord, do I take refuge; let me never be put to shame; in your righteousness deliver me!In thee, O Lord, do I put my trust; let me never be ashamed: deliver me in thy righteousness.
The lips of the righteous know what is acceptable, but the mouth of the wicked, what is perverse.The lips of the righteous know what is acceptable: but the mouth of the wicked speaketh frowardness.
Go and learn what this means: ‘I desire mercy, and not sacrifice.’ For I came not to call the righteous, but sinners.But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
I will greatly rejoice in the Lord; my soul shall exult in my God, for he has clothed me with the garments of salvation; he has covered me with the robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom decks himself like a priest with a beautiful headdress, and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.I will greatly rejoice in the Lord, my soul shall be joyful in my God; for he hath clothed me with the garments of salvation, he hath covered me with the robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom decketh himself with ornaments, and as a bride adorneth herself with her jewels.
Do not envy a man of violence and do not choose any of his ways, for the devious person is an abomination to the Lord, but the upright are in his confidence.Envy thou not the oppressor, and choose none of his ways. For the froward is abomination to the Lord: but his secret is with the righteous.
He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness. By his wounds you have been healed.Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.
Thus says the Lord of hosts, Render true judgments, show kindness and mercy to one another, do not oppress the widow, the fatherless, the sojourner, or the poor, and let none of you devise evil against another in your heart.Thus speaketh the Lord of hosts, saying, Execute true judgment, and shew mercy and compassions every man to his brother: And oppress not the widow, nor the fatherless, the stranger, nor the poor; and let none of you imagine evil against his brother in your heart.
“All things are lawful for me,” but not all things are helpful. “All things are lawful for me,” but I will not be dominated by anything.All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.
Therefore, since we have been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.
You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden.Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.
The Lord is righteous in all his ways and kind in all his works.The Lord is righteous in all his ways, and holy in all his works.
Hear my prayer, O Lord; give ear to my pleas for mercy! In your faithfulness answer me, in your righteousness!Hear my prayer, O Lord, give ear to my supplications: in thy faithfulness answer me, and in thy righteousness.
For as by the one man's disobedience the many were made sinners, so by the one man's obedience the many will be made righteous.For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous.
Give justice to the weak and the fatherless; maintain the right of the afflicted and the destitute.Defend the poor and fatherless: do justice to the afflicted and needy.
Therefore the Lord waits to be gracious to you, and therefore he exalts himself to show mercy to you. For the Lord is a God of justice; blessed are all those who wait for him.And therefore will the Lord wait, that he may be gracious unto you, and therefore will he be exalted, that he may have mercy upon you: for the Lord is a God of judgment: blessed are all they that wait for him.
My soul yearns for you in the night; my spirit within me earnestly seeks you. For when your judgments are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world learn righteousness.With my soul have I desired thee in the night; yea, with my spirit within me will I seek thee early: for when thy judgments are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world will learn righteousness.
But the one who did not know, and did what deserved a beating, will receive a light beating. Everyone to whom much was given, of him much will be required, and from him to whom they entrusted much, they will demand the more.But he that knew not, and did commit things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few stripes. For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required: and to whom men have committed much, of him they will ask the more.
Everyone who makes a practice of sinning also practices lawlessness; sin is lawlessness.Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law.
But for you who fear my name, the sun of righteousness shall rise with healing in its wings. You shall go out leaping like calves from the stall.But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings; and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall.
We ourselves are Jews by birth and not Gentile sinners; yet we know that a person is not justified by works of the law but through faith in Jesus Christ, so we also have believed in Christ Jesus, in order to be justified by faith in Christ and not by works of the law, because by works of the law no one will be justified.We who are Jews by nature, and not sinners of the Gentiles, Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.
Good and upright is the Lord; therefore he instructs sinners in the way. He leads the humble in what is right, and teaches the humble his way.Good and upright is the Lord: therefore will he teach sinners in the way. The meek will he guide in judgment: and the meek will he teach his way.
Blessings are on the head of the righteous, but the mouth of the wicked conceals violence.Blessings are upon the head of the just: but violence covereth the mouth of the wicked.
Blessed are those whose way is blameless, who walk in the law of the Lord!Blessed are the undefiled in the way, who walk in the law of the Lord.

The tongue of the righteous is choice silver; the heart of the wicked is of little worth.The tongue of the just is as choice silver: the heart of the wicked is little worth.
