'Innocent' in the Bible
Call to mind now: Who, being innocent, ever perished? And where were upright people ever destroyed?
Although I am innocent, I could not answer him; I could only plead with my judge for mercy.
Although I am innocent, my mouth would condemn me; although I am blameless, it would declare me perverse.
If a scourge brings sudden death, he mocks at the despair of the innocent.
If I am guilty, woe to me, and if I am innocent, I cannot lift my head; I am full of shame, and satiated with my affliction.
Upright men are appalled at this; the innocent man is troubled with the godless.
The righteous see their destruction and rejoice; the innocent mock them scornfully, saying,
he will deliver even someone who is not innocent, who will escape through the cleanness of your hands."
what he stores up a righteous man will wear, and an innocent man will inherit his silver.
