“The Ěl – His way is perfect; The Word of יהוה is proven; He is a shield to all who take refuge in Him.
“And now, let the fear of יהוה be upon you. Guard and do it, for there is no unrighteousness with יהוה our Elohim, nor partiality, nor taking of bribes.”
The truth is, Ěl does not do wrong, and the Almighty does not twist right-ruling.
Who has appointed Him His way, or who has said, ‘You have worked unrighteousness’?
The Almighty, we have not found Him out, He is exalted in power and right-ruling and great in righteousness – He does not oppress.
Does Ěl twist right-ruling? Or does the Almighty twist what is right?
יהוה is righteous in all His ways, And lovingly-committed in all His works.
To declare that יהוה is straight, My rock, and in Him is no unrighteousness.
He who ignores discipline hates himself, But he who listens to reproof gets understanding.
He who commits adultery with a woman lacks heart; He who does it destroys his own life.
Righteous are You, O יהוה, when I plead with You. Indeed, let me speak with You about right-rulings. Why has the way of the wrong prospered? All the workers of treachery are at ease?
יהוה is righteous in her midst, He does no unrighteousness. Morning by morning He brings His right-ruling to light, it has not been lacking, yet the unrighteous one knows no shame.
What, then, shall we say? Is there unrighteousness with Elohim? Let it not be!
“The Rock! His work is perfect, For all His ways are right-ruling, An Ěl of truth and without unrighteousness, Righteous and straight is He.
Let no one say when he is enticed, “I am enticed by Elohim,” for Elohim is not enticed by evil matters, and He entices no one.
