'Pursuing' in the Bible

Rightly is righteousness for life, And whoso is pursuing evil -- for his own death.

Whoso is tilling the ground is satisfied with bread, And whoso is pursuing vanities is lacking heart,

An abomination to Jehovah is the way of the wicked, And whoso is pursuing righteousness He loveth.

All the brethren of the poor have hated him, Surely also his friends have been far from him, He is pursuing words -- they are not!

Whoso is pursuing righteousness and kindness, Findeth life, righteousness, and honour.

Whoso is tilling his ground is satisfied with bread, And whoso is pursuing vanity, Is filled with poverty.
