'Upright' in the Bible
Or what great nation has statutes and judgments so righteous (upright, just) as this whole law which I am placing before you today?
And do what is upright and good in the eyes of the Lord your God, so that it may be well for you and you may go in and take for your heritage that good land from which the Lord undertook by an oath to your fathers,
Not for your righteousness or because your hearts are upright are you going in to take their land; but because of the evil-doing of these nations the Lord your God is driving them out from before you, and to give effect to his oath to your fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
You are to make judges and overseers in all your towns which the Lord your God gives you, for every tribe: and they are to be upright men, judging the people in righteousness.
You are not to be moved in your judging by a man's position, you are not to take rewards; for rewards make the eyes of the wise man blind, and the decisions of the upright false.
You are to be upright in heart before the Lord your God.
Be upright in judging the cause of the man from a strange country and of him who has no father; do not take a widow's clothing on account of a debt:
If there is an argument between men and they go to law with one another, let the judges give their decision for the upright, and against the wrongdoer.
For all who do such things, and all whose ways are not upright, are disgusting to the Lord your God.
Flawless is the work of the Rock, because all his ways are just. A faithful God never unjust righteous and upright is he.
