Thematic Bible: A characteristic of the righteous


Thematic Bible




The righteous will flourish like the date palm [long-lived, upright and useful];
They will grow like a cedar in Lebanon [majestic and stable].



But the path of the just (righteous) is like the light of dawn,
That shines brighter and brighter until [it reaches its full strength and glory in] the perfect day.


“Nevertheless the righteous will hold to his ways,
And he who has clean hands will grow stronger and stronger.


They go from strength to strength [increasing in victorious power];
Each of them appears before God in Zion.

Practice and work hard on these things; be absorbed in them [completely occupied in your ministry], so that your progress will be evident to all.
