'Righteousness' in the Bible
for if the ministration of the condemnation is glory, much more doth the ministration of the righteousness abound in glory;
for him who did not know sin, in our behalf He did make sin, that we may become the righteousness of God in him.
in the word of truth, in the power of God, through the armour of the righteousness, on the right and on the left,
Become not yoked with others -- unbelievers, for what partaking is there to righteousness and lawlessness?
(according as it hath been written, 'He dispersed abroad, he gave to the poor, his righteousness doth remain to the age,')
and may He who is supplying seed to the sower, and bread for food, supply and multiply your seed sown, and increase the fruits of your righteousness,
no great thing, then, if also his ministrants do transform themselves as ministrants of righteousness -- whose end shall be according to their works.
