-
The Lord loves righteousness and justice; the earth is full of his unfailing love.
-
The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and his ears are attentive to their cry;
-
The righteous cry out, and the Lord hears them; he delivers them from all their troubles.
-
The righteous person may have many troubles, but the Lord delivers him from them all;
-
Evil will slay the wicked; the foes of the righteous will be condemned.
-
Vindicate me in your righteousness, Lord my God; do not let them gloat over me.
-
My tongue will proclaim your righteousness, your praises all day long.
-
Your righteousness is like the highest mountains, your justice like the great deep. You, Lord, preserve both people and animals.
-
Continue your love to those who know you, your righteousness to the upright in heart.
-
He will make your righteous reward shine like the dawn, your vindication like the noonday sun.
-
The wicked plot against the righteous and gnash their teeth at them;
-
Better the little that the righteous have than the wealth of many wicked;
-
for the power of the wicked will be broken, but the Lord upholds the righteous.
-
The wicked borrow and do not repay, but the righteous give generously;
-
I was young and now I am old, yet I have never seen the righteous forsaken or their children begging bread.
-
The righteous will inherit the land and dwell in it forever.
-
The mouths of the righteous utter wisdom, and their tongues speak what is just.
-
The wicked lie in wait for the righteous, intent on putting them to death;
-
The salvation of the righteous comes from the Lord; he is their stronghold in time of trouble.
-
I do not hide your righteousness in my heart; I speak of your faithfulness and your saving help. I do not conceal your love and your faithfulness from the great assembly.
-
You love righteousness and hate wickedness; therefore God, your God, has set you above your companions by anointing you with the oil of joy.
-
Like your name, O God, your praise reaches to the ends of the earth; your right hand is filled with righteousness.
-
And the heavens proclaim his righteousness, for he is a God of justice.
-
Deliver me from the guilt of bloodshed, O God, you who are God my Savior, and my tongue will sing of your righteousness.
-
Then you will delight in the sacrifices of the righteous, in burnt offerings offered whole; then bulls will be offered on your altar.
