And I know, my God, that You try the heart and are pleased with uprightness; I, in the uprightness of my heart, have offered willingly all these things; and now I have watched with joy Your people who are present here offering willingly to You.
And therefore Jehovah waits to be gracious to you. And for this He is exalted to have mercy on you; for Jehovah is a God of judgment. Blessed are all who wait for Him.
And there shall be a highway, even a way, and The Way of Holiness shall be called to it. Unclean ones shall not pass over it. And it is for them, the poor ones going in the way; even foolish ones shall not go astray.
And I will make blind ones go by a way that they did not know. I will make them go down into paths they never knew. I will put darkness into light before them, and crooked places a level place. I do these things to them and do not forsake them;
Who is wise and discerns these things? Who is discerning and knows them? For the ways of Jehovah are right, and the righteous one shall walk in them; but those transgressing shall stumble in them.
Jehovah, the righteous One is in her midst; He will not do injustice. Morning by morning He gives His judgment to the light; He does not fail, but the unjust one knows no shame.
So then do not judge anything before the time, until the Lord comes, who will both shed light on the hidden things of darkness and will reveal the purposes of the hearts. And then praise will be to each one from God.
For our glorying is this, the testimony of our conscience, that we had our conduct in the world in simplicity and sincerity of God, not in fleshly wisdom, but in the grace of God, and especially toward you.
By this the children of God and the children of the devil are made known: Everyone not practicing righteousness is not of God; also the one not loving his brother.
