⁶ In no way: because if it is so, how is God able to be the judge of all the world?

²⁵ Let such a thing be far from you, to put the upright to death with the sinner: will not the judge of all the earth do right?

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

¹⁶ In the day when God will be a judge of the secrets of men, as it says in the good news of which I am a preacher, through Jesus Christ.

³¹ Because a day has been fixed in which all the world will be judged in righteousness by the man who has been marked out by him for this work; of which he has given a sign to all men by giving him back from the dead.

⁹ Before the Lord, for he has come as judge of the earth; judging the world in righteousness, and giving true decisions for the peoples.

¹³ Before the Lord, for he is come; he is come to be the judge of the earth; the earth will be judged in righteousness, and the peoples with unchanging faith.

⁶ And let the heavens make clear his righteousness; for God himself is the judge. (Selah.)

⁵ The Lord puts the upright and the sinner to the test, but he has hate in his soul for the lover of violent acts.

⁶ On the evil-doer he will send down fire and flames, and a burning wind; with these will their cup be full.

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

⁸ And he will be the judge of the world in righteousness, giving true decisions for the peoples.

¹⁷ How may a hater of right be a ruler? and will you say that the upright Ruler of all is evil?

¹⁸ He who says to a king, You are an evil-doer; and to rulers, You are sinners;

¹⁹ Who has no respect for rulers, and who gives no more attention to those who have wealth than to the poor, for they are all the work of his hands.
