⁶ I the Lord have called thee in righteousness, and will hold thine hand, and will keep thee, and give thee for a covenant of the people, for a light of the Gentiles;

¹⁶ I will go in the strength of the Lord God: I will make mention of thy righteousness, even of thine only.

¹⁹ Thy righteousness also, O God, is very high, who hast done great things: O God, who is like unto thee!

¹⁷ Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.

³ For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.
