Therefore, listen to me, you men of heart: far be it from Ěl to do wrong, and from the Almighty to commit unrighteousness.
Who has appointed Him His way, or who has said, ‘You have worked unrighteousness’?
Does Ěl twist right-ruling? Or does the Almighty twist what is right?
For יהוה is righteous, He has loved righteousness; The upright shall see His face.
יהוה is righteous in all His ways, And lovingly-committed in all His works.
