Far be it from You to act in this way, to put to death the righteous one with the wicked one. Far be it from You. The Judge of all the earth, shall He not do justice?
Righteous are You, O Jehovah, when I might contend with You, yet let me speak with You of Your judgments. Why does the way of the wicked ones prosper? Why are all at ease, those who act deceitfully, with deceit.
