'Righteous' in the Bible

He guards the steps of his faithful ones, while the wicked are made silent in darkness. He grants the request of the one who prays. He blesses the year of the righteous. Indeed it's not by strength that a person prevails.

Now stand up and I'll pass judgment on you in light of the LORD's righteous acts that he did for you and your ancestors.

to David, "You are more righteous than I am, because you have treated me well even though I've treated you poorly.
