Man » The ways of man
O Jehovah, I know that humans are not able to govern their own lives. Humans cannot administer their own steps.
Every way of a man is right in his own eyes, but Jehovah measures the hearts.
All the ways of a man are pure (clean) in his own eyes. But Jehovah weighs the motives.
Let the wicked forsake his way and the evil man his thoughts. Let him turn to Jehovah, and he will have mercy on him, and to our God, for he will freely pardon. My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, declares Jehovah. As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.
But you say: Jehovah's way is unfair. Listen, nation of Israel, is my way fair? Is it your ways that are unfair? When a righteous person turns away from doing right and does evil things, he will die. He will die because of the evil things he has done. When a wicked person turns away from the wicked things that he has done and does what is fair and right, he will live. read more.
He realized what he was doing and turned away from all the rebellious things that he had done. He will certainly live. He will not die. But the nation of Israel says: Jehovah's way is unfair. Is my way not fair, nation of Israel? Is it not your ways that are unfair? That is why I will judge each of you by what you have done, people of Israel, declares the Lord Jehovah. Change the way you think and act. (Repent!) Turn away from all the rebellious things that you have done so that you will not fall into sin.

But your people say: 'Jehovah's way is not right.' Yet, their ways are not right. If the righteous person turns from the right things that he has done and does evil, he will die because of it. If the wicked person turns from his wickedness and does what is fair and right, he will live because of it. read more.

Man » The lord being greater than man
For the foolishness of God is wiser than men and the weakness of God is stronger than men.
You are of God, my little children. You have overcome them because he that is in you is greater than he that is in the world.
Let the wicked forsake his way and the evil man his thoughts. Let him turn to Jehovah, and he will have mercy on him, and to our God, for he will freely pardon. My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, declares Jehovah. As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.
But I tell you, Job, in this you are not right, for God is greater than man.
