And the nations will see your righteousness, and all kings your glory: and you will have a new name, given by the mouth of the Lord.

It was the Lord's pleasure, because of his righteousness, to make the teaching great and give it honour.

I have not given my word in secret, in a place in the underworld; I did not say to the seed of Jacob, Go into a waste land to make request of me: I the Lord say what is true, my word is righteousness.

My righteousness is near, it is not far off; salvation will come quickly; and I will make Zion free, and give Israel my glory.

If only you had given ear to my orders, then your peace would have been like a river, and your righteousness as the waves of the sea:

But if any man has pride, let it be in this, that he has the wisdom to have knowledge of me, that I am the Lord, working mercy, giving true decisions, and doing righteousness in the earth: for in these things I have delight, says the Lord.

But, O Lord of armies, judging in righteousness, testing the thoughts and the heart, let me see your punishment come on them: for I have put my cause before you.

Will you not have mercy on him who takes pleasure in doing righteousness, even on those who keep in mind your ways? Truly you were angry, and we went on doing evil, and sinning against you in the past.

Are you to be a king because you make more use of cedar than your father? did not your father take food and drink and do right, judging in righteousness, and then it was well for him?

In his days Judah will have salvation and Israel will be living without fear: and this is the name by which he will be named, The Lord is our righteousness.

So the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said, Again will these words be used in the land of Judah and in its towns, when I have let their fate be changed: May the blessing of the Lord be on you, O resting-place of righteousness, O holy mountain.

In those days, Judah will have salvation and Jerusalem will be safe: and this is the name which will be given to her: The Lord is our righteousness.

Let not your decisions be based on what you see, but on righteousness.

They have been attacked by all those who came across them: and their attackers said, We are doing no wrong, because they have done evil against the Lord in whom is righteousness, against the Lord, the hope of their fathers.

The Lord has made clear our righteousness: come, and let us give an account in Zion of the work of the Lord our God.

Again, when an upright man, turning away from his righteousness, does evil, and I put a cause of falling in his way, death will overtake him: because you have given him no word of his danger, death will overtake him in his evil-doing, and there will be no memory of the upright acts which he has done; but I will make you responsible for his blood.

Even if these three men, Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in it, only themselves would they keep safe by their righteousness, says the Lord.

Even if Noah, Daniel, and Job were in it, by my life, says the Lord, they would not keep son or daughter safe; only themselves would they keep safe through their righteousness.

But if a man is upright, living rightly and doing righteousness,

And he, when he comes, will make the world conscious of sin, and of righteousness, and of being judged:

Of righteousness, because I go to the Father and you will see me no more;

Father of righteousness, I have knowledge of you, though the world has not; and to these it is clear that you sent me;

The soul which does sin will be put to death: the son will not be made responsible for the evil-doing of the father, or the father for the evil-doing of the son; the righteousness of the upright will be on himself, and the evil-doing of the evil-doer on himself.

Not one of the sins which he has done will be kept in memory against him: in the righteousness which he has done he will have life.

But when the upright man, turning away from his righteousness, does evil, like all the disgusting things which the evil man does, will he have life? Not one of his upright acts will be kept in memory: in the wrong which he has done and in his sin death will overtake him.

When the upright man, turning away from his righteousness, does evil, death will overtake him; in the evil which he has done death will overtake him.

When the upright man, turning away from his righteousness, does evil, death will overtake him in it.

For this cause, O King, let my suggestion be pleasing to you, and let your sins be covered by righteousness and your evil-doing by mercy to the poor, so that the time of your well-being may be longer.

O Lord, righteousness is yours, but shame is on us, even to this day; and on the men of Judah and the people of Jerusalem, and on all Israel, those who are near and those who are far off, in all the countries where you have sent them because of the sin which they have done against you.

O Lord, because of your righteousness, let your wrath and your passion be turned away from your town Jerusalem, your holy mountain: because, through our sins and the evil-doing of our fathers, Jerusalem and your people have become a cause of shame to all who are round about us.

O my God, let your ear be turned and give hearing; let your eyes be open and see how we have been made waste and the town which is named by your name: for we are not offering our prayers before you because of our righteousness, but because of your great mercies.

Seventy weeks have been fixed for your people and your holy town, to let wrongdoing be complete and sin come to its full limit, and for the clearing away of evil-doing and the coming in of eternal righteousness: so that the vision and the word of the prophet may be stamped as true, and to put the holy oil on a most holy place.

But in every nation, the man who has fear of him and does righteousness is pleasing to him.

O you, who are full of false tricks and evil ways, a son of the Evil One, hating all righteousness, will you for ever be turning people from the right ways of the Lord?

And those who are wise will be shining like the light of the outstretched sky; and those by whom numbers have been turned to righteousness will be like the stars for ever and ever.

And I will take you as my bride for ever; truly, I will take you as my bride in righteousness and in right judging, in love and in mercies.

You who make the work of judging a bitter thing, crushing down righteousness to the earth;

But let the right go rolling on like waters, and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream.

Because a day has been fixed in which all the world will be judged in righteousness by the man who has been marked out by him for this work; of which he has given a sign to all men by giving him back from the dead.

Is it possible for horses to go running on the rock? may the sea be ploughed with oxen? for the right to be turned by you into poison, and the fruit of righteousness into a bitter plant?

I will undergo the wrath of the Lord, because of my sin against him; till he takes up my cause and does what is right for me: when he makes me come out into the light, I will see his righteousness;

Make search for the Lord, all you quiet ones of the earth, who have done what is right in his eyes; make search for righteousness and a quiet heart: it may be that you will be safely covered in the day of the Lord's wrath.

The Lord in her is upright; he will not do evil; every morning he lets his righteousness be seen, he is unchanging; but the evil-doer has no sense of shame.

And while he was talking about righteousness and self-control and the judging which was to come, Felix had great fear and said, Go away for the present, and when the right time comes I will send for you.

True teaching was in his mouth, and no evil was seen on his lips: he was walking with me in peace and righteousness, turning numbers of people away from evil-doing.

He will take his seat, testing and cleaning the sons of Levi, burning away the evil from them as from gold and silver; so that they may make offerings to the Lord in righteousness.

But to you who give worship to my name, the sun of righteousness will come up with new life in its wings; and you will go out, playing like young oxen full of food.

But Jesus made answer, saying to him, Let it be so now: because so it is right for us to make righteousness complete. Then he gave him baptism.

Happy are those whose heart's desire is for righteousness: for they will have their desire.

Happy are those who are attacked on account of righteousness: for the kingdom of heaven will be theirs.

But by your hard and unchanged heart you are storing up wrath for yourself in the day of the revelation of God's judging in righteousness;

For it is not the hearers of the law who will be judged as having righteousness before God, but only the doers:

But if the righteousness of God is supported by our wrongdoing what is to be said? is it wrong for God to be angry (as men may say)?

As it is said in the holy Writings, There is not one who does righteousness;

Because by the works of the law no man is able to have righteousness in his eyes, for through the law comes the knowledge of sin.

But now without the law there is a revelation of the righteousness of God, to which witness is given by the law and the prophets;

And they may have righteousness put to their credit, freely, by his grace, through the salvation which is in Christ Jesus:

For if Abraham got righteousness by works, he has reason for pride; but not before God.

As David says that there is a blessing on the man to whose account God puts righteousness without works, saying,

For which reason it was put to his account as righteousness.

Who was put to death for our evil-doing, and came to life again so that we might have righteousness.

Much more, if we now have righteousness by his blood, will salvation from the wrath of God come to us through him.

Be then complete in righteousness, even as your Father in heaven is complete.

But let your first care be for his kingdom and his righteousness; and all these other things will be given to you in addition.

The crushed stem will not be broken by him; and the feebly burning light will he not put out, till he has made righteousness overcome all.

For by your words will your righteousness be seen, and by your words you will be judged.

And the free giving has not the same effect as the sin of one: for the effect of one man's sin was punishment by the decision of God, but the free giving had power to give righteousness to wrongdoers in great number.

For, if by the wrongdoing of one, death was ruling through the one, much more will those to whom has come the wealth of grace and the giving of righteousness, be ruling in life through the one, even Jesus Christ.

Because, as numbers of men became sinners through the wrongdoing of one man, even so will great numbers get righteousness through the keeping of the word of God by one man.

That, as sin had power in death, so grace might have power through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

And do not give your bodies to sin as the instruments of wrongdoing, but give yourselves to God, as those who are living from the dead, and your bodies as instruments of righteousness to God.

Are you not conscious that you are the servants of him to whom you give yourselves to do his desire? if to sin, the end being death, or if to do the desire of God, the end being righteousness.

And being made free from sin you have been made the servants of righteousness.

I am using words in the way of men, because your flesh is feeble: as you gave your bodies as servants to what is unclean, and to evil to do evil, so now give them as servants to righteousness to do what is holy.

When you were servants of sin you were free from righteousness.

And if Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.

But Israel, going after a law of righteousness, did not get it.

For Moses says that the man who does the righteousness which is of the law will get life by it.

In you, O Lord, have I put my hope; let me never be shamed; keep me safe in your righteousness.

Be glad in the Lord, O doers of righteousness; for praise is beautiful for the upright.

His delight is in righteousness and wisdom; the earth is full of the mercy of the Lord.

Evil will put an end to the sinner, and those who are haters of righteousness will come to destruction.

Be my judge, O Lord my God, in your righteousness; do not let them be glad over me.

And my tongue will be talking of your righteousness and of your praise all the day.

Your righteousness is like the mountains of God; your judging is like the great deep; O Lord, you give life to man and beast.

O let there be no end to your loving mercy to those who have knowledge of you, or of your righteousness to the upright in heart.

And he will make your righteousness be seen like the light, and your cause like the shining of the sun.

For the Lord is a lover of righteousness, and takes care of his saints; they will be kept safe for ever; but the seed of the evil-doers will be cut off.

The mouth of the good man says words of wisdom; the talk of his tongue is of righteousness.

For the Lord is upright; he is a lover of righteousness: the upright will see his face.

The Lord gives me the reward of my righteousness, because my hands are clean before him.

Because of this the Lord has given me the reward of my righteousness, because my hands are clean in his eyes.

The fear of the Lord is clean, and has no end; the decisions of the Lord are true and full of righteousness.

They will come and make his righteousness clear to a people of the future because he has done this.

Do not keep in mind my sins when I was young, or my wrongdoing: let your memory of me be full of mercy, O Lord, because of your righteousness.

For your mercy is great, stretching up to the heavens, and your righteousness goes up to the clouds.

Is there righteousness in your mouths, O you gods? are you upright judges, O you sons of men?

So that men will say, Truly there is a reward for righteousness; truly there is a God who is judge on the earth.

May the seat of his authority be before God for ever; may mercy and righteousness keep him safe.

The upright will be glad in the Lord and have hope in him; and all the lovers of righteousness will give him glory.
