²⁰ and Noah, Daniel, and Job, in its midst: I live -- an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah -- neither son nor daughter do they deliver; they, by their righteousness, deliver their own soul.

¹⁴ and these three men have been in its midst, Noah, Daniel, and Job -- they by their righteousness deliver their own soul -- an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.

¹⁰ In this manifest are the children of God, and the children of the devil; every one who is not doing righteousness, is not of God, and he who is not loving his brother,

⁷ Little children, let no one lead you astray; he who is doing the righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous,

²⁹ if ye know that he is righteous, know ye that every one doing the righteousness, of him hath been begotten.

³⁵ but in every nation he who is fearing Him, and is working righteousness, is acceptable to Him;

³ Seek Jehovah, all ye humble of the land, Who His judgment have done, Seek ye righteousness, seek humility, It may be ye are hidden in a day of the anger of Jehovah.

¹² Sow for yourselves in righteousness, Reap according to loving-kindness, Till for yourselves tillage of knowledge, To seek Jehovah, Till he come and shew righteousness to you.

²² All his transgressions that he hath done Are not remembered to him, In his righteousness that he hath done he liveth.

²⁰ The soul that doth sin -- it doth die. A son doth not bear of the iniquity of the father, And a father doth not bear of the iniquity of the son, The righteousness of the righteous is on him, And the wickedness of the wicked is on him.

¹⁶ these three men in its midst: I live -- an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah -- neither sons nor daughters do they deliver; they alone are delivered, and the land is a desolation.

¹⁰ Say ye to the righteous, that `it is' good, Because the fruit of their doings they eat.

¹⁸ Lo, the eye of Jehovah `is' to those fearing Him, To those waiting for His kindness,

¹⁹ To deliver from death their soul, And to keep them alive in famine.

¹⁹ In six distresses He delivereth thee, And in seven evil striketh not on thee.

²⁰ In famine He hath redeemed thee from death, And in battle from the hands of the sword.

²¹ When the tongue scourgeth thou art hid, And thou art not afraid of destruction, When it cometh.

²² At destruction and at hunger thou mockest, And of the beast of the earth, Thou art not afraid.

²³ (For with sons of the field `is' thy covenant, And the beast of the field Hath been at peace with thee.)

²⁴ And thou hast known that thy tent `is' peace, And inspected thy habitation, and errest not,
