And foundest his heart faithful before thee, and madest a covenant with him to give the land of the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Jebusites, and the Girgashites, to give it, I say, to his seed, and hast performed thy words; for thou art righteous:

Howbeit thou art just in all that is brought upon us; for thou hast done right, but we have done wickedly:

I am as one mocked of his neighbour, who calleth upon God, and he answereth him: the just upright man is laughed to scorn.

The righteous also shall hold on his way, and he that hath clean hands shall be stronger and stronger.

The righteous see it, and are glad: and the innocent laugh them to scorn.

He may prepare it, but the just shall put it on, and the innocent shall divide the silver.

So these three men ceased to answer Job, because he was righteous in his own eyes.

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

He withdraweth not his eyes from the righteous: but with kings are they on the throne; yea, he doth establish them for ever, and they are exalted.

Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.

For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.

For thou, LORD, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield.

Oh let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end; but establish the just: for the righteous God trieth the hearts and reins.

God judgeth the righteous, and God is angry with the wicked every day.

If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?

The LORD trieth the righteous: but the wicked and him that loveth violence his soul hateth.

For the righteous LORD loveth righteousness; his countenance doth behold the upright.

There were they in great fear: for God is in the generation of the righteous.

Let the lying lips be put to silence; which speak grievous things proudly and contemptuously against the righteous.

Be glad in the LORD, and rejoice, ye righteous: and shout for joy, all ye that are upright in heart.

Rejoice in the LORD, O ye righteous: for praise is comely for the upright.

The eyes of the LORD are upon the righteous, and his ears are open unto their cry.

Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivereth him out of them all.

Evil shall slay the wicked: and they that hate the righteous shall be desolate.
