- Good and upright is the Lord;
Therefore He teaches sinners in the way.
The humble He guides in justice,
And the humble He teaches His way. - For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness, righteousness, and truth.

And works righteousness,
And speaks the truth in his heart;

Nor does evil to his neighbor,
Nor does he take up a reproach against his friend. - Then you will understand righteousness and justice,
Equity and every good path. - And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart.
- A man has joy by the answer of his mouth,
And a word spoken in due season, how good it is! - Defend the poor and fatherless;
Do justice to the afflicted and needy. - Awake to righteousness, and do not sin; for some do not have the knowledge of God. I speak this to your shame.
- Train up a child in the way he should go,
And when he is old he will not depart from it. - Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, praise and extol and honor the King of heaven, all of whose works are truth, and His ways justice. And those who walk in pride He is able to put down.

- He is the Rock, His work is perfect;
For all His ways are justice,
A God of truth and without injustice;
Righteous and upright is He. - To him who overcomes I will grant to sit with Me on My throne, as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne.

- Better is a little with righteousness,
Than vast revenues without justice. - Behold the proud,
His soul is not upright in him;
But the just shall live by his faith. - He has shown you, O man, what is good;
And what does the Lord require of you
But to do justly,
To love mercy,
And to walk humbly with your God? - Learn to do good;
Seek justice,
Rebuke the oppressor;
Defend the fatherless,
Plead for the widow.
