Righteousness

And he believed in the LORD; and he counted it to him for righteousness.

So shall my righteousness answer for me in time to come, when it shall come for my hire before thy face: every one that is not speckled and spotted among the goats, and brown among the sheep, that shall be counted stolen with me.

Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment: thou shalt not respect the person of the poor, nor honour the person of the mighty: but in righteousness shalt thou judge thy neighbour.

And it shall be our righteousness, if we observe to do all these commandments before the LORD our God, as he hath commanded us.

Speak not thou in thine heart, after that the LORD thy God hath cast them out from before thee, saying, For my righteousness the LORD hath brought me in to possess this land: but for the wickedness of these nations the LORD doth drive them out from before thee.

Not for thy righteousness, or for the uprightness of thine heart, dost thou go to possess their land: but for the wickedness of these nations the LORD thy God doth drive them out from before thee, and that he may perform the word which the LORD sware unto thy fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

Understand therefore, that the LORD thy God giveth thee not this good land to possess it for thy righteousness; for thou art a stiffnecked people.

In any case thou shalt deliver him the pledge again when the sun goeth down, that he may sleep in his own raiment, and bless thee: and it shall be righteousness unto thee before the LORD thy God.

They shall call the people unto the mountain; there they shall offer sacrifices of righteousness: for they shall suck of the abundance of the seas, and of treasures hid in the sand.

The LORD render to every man his righteousness and his faithfulness: for the LORD delivered thee into my hand to day, but I would not stretch forth mine hand against the LORD's anointed.

The LORD rewarded me according to my righteousness: according to the cleanness of my hands hath he recompensed me.

Therefore the LORD hath recompensed me according to my righteousness; according to my cleanness in his eye sight.

And Solomon said, Thou hast shewed unto thy servant David my father great mercy, according as he walked before thee in truth, and in righteousness, and in uprightness of heart with thee; and thou hast kept for him this great kindness, that thou hast given him a son to sit on his throne, as it is this day.

Then hear thou in heaven, and do, and judge thy servants, condemning the wicked, to bring his way upon his head; and justifying the righteous, to give him according to his righteousness.

Then hear thou from heaven, and do, and judge thy servants, by requiting the wicked, by recompensing his way upon his own head; and by justifying the righteous, by giving him according to his righteousness.

Return, I pray you, let it not be iniquity; yea, return again, my righteousness is in it.

If thou wert pure and upright; surely now he would awake for thee, and make the habitation of thy righteousness prosperous.

My righteousness I hold fast, and will not let it go: my heart shall not reproach me so long as I live.

I put on righteousness, and it clothed me: my judgment was as a robe and a diadem.

He shall pray unto God, and he will be favourable unto him: and he shall see his face with joy: for he will render unto man his righteousness.

Thinkest thou this to be right, that thou saidst, My righteousness is more than God's?

Thy wickedness may hurt a man as thou art; and thy righteousness may profit the son of man.

I will fetch my knowledge from afar, and will ascribe righteousness to my Maker.

<<To the chief Musician on Neginoth, A Psalm of David.>> Hear me when I call, O God of my righteousness: thou hast enlarged me when I was in distress; have mercy upon me, and hear my prayer.

Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, and put your trust in the LORD.
