³ Does God give wrong decisions? or is the Ruler of all not upright in his judging?

⁷ For the Lord is upright; he is a lover of righteousness: the upright will see his face.

¹⁷ The Lord is upright in all his ways, and kind in all his works.

¹² Are you not eternal, O Lord my God, my Holy One? for you there is no death. O Lord, he has been ordered by you for our punishment; and by you, O Rock, he has been marked out to put us right.

¹³ Before your holy eyes sin may not be seen, and you are unable to put up with wrong; why, then, are your eyes on the false? why do you say nothing when the evil-doer puts an end to one who is more upright than himself?
