'Act' in the Bible

if you are clean and upright, surely then, he'll act on your behalf and restore your rightful place.

“Will you show partiality for Him [and be unjust to me so that you may gain favor with Him]?Will you contend and plead for God?

“Behold, all of you have seen it;Why then do you act foolishly?

For I would have committed a shameful act, an iniquity to be judged.

what will I do when God stands up to act? When he asks the questions, how will I answer him?

Therefore listen to me, you men of understanding.It is impossible for God to do wrong,and for the Almighty to act unjustly.

Indeed, it is true that God does not act wickedlyand the Almighty does not pervert justice.

Suppose someone says to God,“I have endured my punishment;I will no longer act wickedly.
