³ Doth God pervert judgment? or doth the Almighty pervert justice?

¹⁷ Shall even he that hateth right govern? and wilt thou condemn him that is most just?

⁸ Wilt thou also disannul my judgment? wilt thou condemn me, that thou mayest be righteous?

⁴ He is the Rock, his work is perfect: for all his ways are judgment: a God of truth and without iniquity, just and right is he.

¹⁴ Therefore hath the Lord watched upon the evil, and brought it upon us: for the Lord our God is righteous in all his works which he doeth: for we obeyed not his voice.

¹⁹ I have not spoken in secret, in a dark place of the earth: I said not unto the seed of Jacob, Seek ye me in vain: I the Lord speak righteousness, I declare things that are right.

²¹ Tell ye, and bring them near; yea, let them take counsel together: who hath declared this from ancient time? who hath told it from that time? have not I the Lord? and there is no God else beside me; a just God and a Saviour; there is none beside me.

⁷ The way of the just is uprightness: thou, most upright, dost weigh the path of the just.

²⁵ O righteous Father, the world hath not known thee: but I have known thee, and these have known that thou hast sent me.

¹⁷ The Lord is righteous in all his ways, and holy in all his works.
