For the Lord is just,-- Ps11,7
He loves just deeds;
the upright shall see His face.
You are just O Lord,-- Ps119,137
and Your ordinance is right.
You have pronounced Your decrees in justice
and in perfect faithfulness.
The Lord secures justice-- Ps103,6
and the rights of all the oppressed.
Yes, affliction and distress-- Rm2,9
will come upon every human being who does evil,
Jew first and then Greek.
But there will be glory, honor and peace
for everyone who does good,
Jew first and then Greek.
There is no partiality with God.
He keeps faith for ever,
gives justice to the oppressed,
gives food to the hungry;
Yahweh set prisoners free.
Yahweh gives sight to the blind,
lifts up those who are bowed down.
Yahweh protects the stranger,
he sustains the orphan and the widow.
Yahweh loves the upright,-- Ps146,7-10
but he frustrates the wicked.
Yahweh reigns for ever,
your God, Zion, from age to age.
