Righteousness (3/5)

  • Better is a little that the righteous person has
    than the abundance of many wicked.
    For the arms of the wicked shall be broken,
    but the Lord upholds the righteous.
  • In you, O Lord, I seek refuge;
    do not let me ever be put to shame;
    in your righteousness deliver me.
  • For God is not unjust; he will not overlook your work and the love that you showed for his sake in serving the saints, as you still do.
  • The lips of the righteous know what is acceptable,
    but the mouth of the wicked what is perverse.
  • Go and learn what this means, ‘I desire mercy, not sacrifice.’ For I have come to call not the righteous but sinners.
  • I will greatly rejoice in the Lord,
    my whole being 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 with a garland,
    and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.
  • Do not envy the violent
    and do not choose any of their ways;
    for the perverse are an abomination to the Lord,
    but the upright are in his confidence.
  • Thus says the Lord of hosts: Render true judgments, show kindness and mercy to one another; do not oppress the widow, the orphan, the alien, or the poor; and do not devise evil in your hearts against one another.
  • He himself bore our sins in his body on the cross, so that, free from sins, we might live for righteousness; by his wounds you have been healed.
  • The Lord is just in all his ways,
    and kind in all his doings.
  • “All things are lawful for me,” but not all things are beneficial. “All things are lawful for me,” but I will not be dominated by anything.
  • Hear my prayer, O Lord;
    give ear to my supplications in your faithfulness;
    answer me in your righteousness.
  • Give justice to the weak and the orphan;
    maintain the right of the lowly and the destitute.
  • Therefore, since we are justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.
  • Therefore the Lord waits to be gracious to you;
    therefore he will rise up to show mercy to you.
    For the Lord is a God of justice;
    blessed are all those who wait for him.
  • You are the light of the world. A city built on a hill cannot be hid.
  • But for you who revere my name the sun of righteousness shall rise, with healing in its wings. You shall go out leaping like calves from the stall.
  • Everyone who commits sin is guilty of lawlessness; sin is lawlessness.
  • For just 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.
  • 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.
  • If we diligently observe this entire commandment before the Lord our God, as he has commanded us, we will be in the right.
  • I do not nullify the grace of God; for if justification comes through the law, then Christ died for nothing.
  • 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.
  • But the one who did not know and did what deserved a beating will receive a light beating. From everyone to whom much has been given, much will be required; and from the one to whom much has been entrusted, even more will be demanded.
  • He stores up sound wisdom for the upright;
    he is a shield to those who walk blamelessly.

Those who are wise understand these things;
those who are discerning know them.
For the ways of the Lord are right,
and the upright walk in them,
but transgressors stumble in them.

Random Bible Verse

Though the fig tree does not blossom,
and no fruit is on the vines;
though the produce of the olive fails
and the fields yield no food;
though the flock is cut off from the fold
and there is no herd in the stalls,
yet I will rejoice in the Lord;
I will exult in the God of my salvation.
