¹² Yea, surely God will not do wickedly, neither will the Almighty pervert judgment.

⁷ For the righteous Lord loveth righteousness; his countenance doth behold the upright.

¹² Art thou not from everlasting, O Lord my God, mine Holy One? we shall not die. O Lord, thou hast ordained them for judgment; and, O mighty God, thou hast established them for correction.

¹³ Thou art of purer eyes than to behold evil, and canst not look on iniquity: wherefore lookest thou upon them that deal treacherously, and holdest thy tongue when the wicked devoureth the man that is more righteous than he?
