Righteousness (5/5)

  • Riches will be of no avail on the day of wrath,
    but righteousness delivers from death.
  • As we proceed in the path of your judgments,
    we wait for you, O Lord;
    your name and your renown
    are all that our heart desires.
  • But the Almighty we cannot find;
    he is unequaled in power and judgment,
    and in his righteousness he will not violate justice.
  • Those of you who seek to be justified by the Law have cut yourselves off from Christ and have fallen away from grace.
  • Therefore, now I, Nebuchadnezzar,
    praise and exalt and glorify
    the King of heaven.
    For all of his works are right,
    and all of his ways are just.
    Also, he is able to humble
    all those who follow the path of pride.
  • Not because of any righteous deeds on our part
    but because of his mercy,
    he saved us through the bath of rebirth
    and renewal by the Holy Spirit.
  • There is only one Lawgiver and Judge, the one who is able to save or to destroy. Who then are you to pass judgment on a neighbor?
  • The wicked man borrows but neglects to repay,
    whereas the righteous man is generous in giving.
  • And opens the eyes of those who cannot see.
    The Lord lifts up those who are bowed down;
    the Lord loves the righteous.
  • Do not swerve either to the right or to the left;
    keep your foot far from evil.
  • Let the wicked abandon their ways
    and those who are evil their thoughts.
    Let them return to the Lord
    so that he may have mercy upon them;
    and to our God,
    for he is rich in forgiveness.
  • Rejoice with all your heart, O daughter Zion.
    Shout for joy, O daughter Jerusalem.
    See, your king is coming to you,
    triumphant and victorious,
    humble and riding on a donkey,
    on a colt, the foal of a donkey.
  • Now let the fear of the Lord be upon you. Be careful in your judgments, for the Lord, our God, will not tolerate the perversion of justice, or partiality, or the taking of bribes.
  • And when he comes,
    he will prove the world wrong
    about sin and righteousness and judgment.
  • Seek the Lord,
    all you humble of the land
    who obey his commands.
    Seek righteousness, seek humility;
    then perhaps you may find shelter
    on the day of the Lord’s anger.
  • Turn away from youthful passions and pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace, together with those who call on the Lord with a pure heart.
  • Stand firm, then, with the belt of truth fastened around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness clothing you, and with your feet shod in zeal to proclaim the gospel of peace. In all circumstances, hold in your hand the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the flaming arrows of the evil one.
  • There is no one on earth who is so righteous
    that he does nothing but good and never sins.
