“But if a man is just,
    and does that which is lawful and right,
and has not eaten on the mountains,
    hasn’t lifted up his eyes to the idols of the house of Israel,
hasn’t defiled his neighbor’s wife,
    hasn’t come near a woman in her impurity,
and has not wronged any,
    but has restored to the debtor his pledge,
has taken nothing by robbery,
    has given his bread to the hungry,
    and has covered the naked with a garment;
he who hasn’t lent to them with interest,
    hasn’t taken any increase from them,
who has withdrawn his hand from iniquity,
    has executed true justice between man and man,
has walked in my statutes,
    and has kept my ordinances,
    to deal truly;
he is just,
    he shall surely live,” says the Lord Yahweh.
