¹⁰ Kindness and truth have met, Righteousness and peace have kissed,

¹⁴ Righteousness and judgment `Are' the fixed place of Thy throne, Kindness and truth go before Thy face.

³ The mountains bear peace to the people, And the heights by righteousness.

¹⁶ And dwelt in the wilderness hath judgment, And righteousness in the fruitful field remaineth.

¹⁷ And a work of the righteousness hath been peace, And a service of the righteousness -- Keeping quiet and confidence unto the age.

¹⁸ And dwelt hath My people in a peaceful habitation, And in stedfast tabernacles, And in quiet resting-places.

³ Let not kindness and truth forsake thee, Bind them on thy neck, Write them on the tablet of thy heart,

⁵ For good `is' Jehovah, to the age His kindness, And to generation and generation His faithfulness!

⁶ and Jehovah passeth over before his face, and calleth: `Jehovah, Jehovah God, merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abundant in kindness and truth,

⁷ keeping kindness for thousands, taking away iniquity, and transgression, and sin, and not entirely acquitting, charging iniquity of fathers on children, and on children's children, on a third `generation', and on a fourth.'

⁵⁴ He received again Israel His servant, To remember kindness,

⁵⁵ As He spake unto our fathers, To Abraham and to his seed -- to the age.'

²⁴ Only in Jehovah, said hath one, Have I righteousness and strength, Unto Him he cometh in, And ashamed are all those displeased with Him.

² to whom also a tenth of all did Abraham divide, (first, indeed, being interpreted, `King of righteousness,' and then also, King of Salem, which is, King of Peace,)

²¹ that even as the sin did reign in the death, so also the grace may reign, through righteousness, to life age-during, through Jesus Christ our Lord.

¹ Having been declared righteous, then, by faith, we have peace toward God through our Lord Jesus Christ,

²⁵ whom God did set forth a mercy seat, through the faith in his blood, for the shewing forth of His righteousness, because of the passing over of the bygone sins in the forbearance of God --

²⁶ for the shewing forth of His righteousness in the present time, for His being righteous, and declaring him righteous who `is' of the faith of Jesus.

¹⁷ for the law through Moses was given, the grace and the truth through Jesus Christ did come;

¹⁴ `Glory in the highest to God, and upon earth peace, among men -- good will.'

²⁰ Thou givest truth to Jacob, kindness to Abraham, That thou hast sworn to our fathers, from the days of antiquity!

⁵ Lo, days are coming -- an affirmation of Jehovah, And I have raised to David a righteous shoot, And a king hath reigned and acted wisely, And done judgment and righteousness in the earth.

⁶ In his days is Judah saved, and Israel dwelleth confidently, And this his name that Jehovah proclaimeth him, `Our Righteousness.'
