⁷Wherefore now, let the feare of the LORD be vpon you, take heed and doe it: for there is no ^*iniquitie with the LORD our God, nor respect of persons, nor taking of gifts.

¹⁷The Lord is righteous in all his ways, and holy in all his works.

^17‖The LORD is righteous in all his wayes: and holy in all his works.

⁴He is the Rock, his work is perfect: for all his ways are judgment: a God of truth and without iniquity, just and right is he.

⁴ He is the rocke, his worke is perfect: for all his wayes are Iudgement: A God of trueth, and without iniquity, iust and right is he.

¹⁰Therefore hearken unto me, ye men of understanding: far be it from God, that he should do wickedness; and from the Almighty, that he should commit iniquity.

¹¹For the work of a man shall he render unto him, and cause every man to find according to his ways.

¹²Yea, surely God will not do wickedly, neither will the Almighty pervert judgment.

¹⁰Therefore hearken vnto me, ye ^†men of vnderstanding: ^*farre bee it from God, that he should doe wickednes, and from the Almighty, that hee should commit iniquitie.

¹²Yea surely God will not doe wickedly, neither will the Almighty peruert iudgement.

¹⁵To shew that the Lord is upright: he is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.

¹⁵To shew that the LORD is vpright: hee is my rocke, and there is no vnrighteousnesse in him.

⁷And I heard another out of the altar say, Even so, Lord God Almighty, true and righteous are thy judgments.

⁷And I heard another out of the altar say, Euen so, Lord God Almightie, true and righteous are thy iudgements.

³Doth God pervert judgment? or doth the Almighty pervert justice?

^3*Doth God peruert iudgement? or doth the Almightie peruert iustice?

²⁵That be far from thee to do after this manner, to slay the righteous with the wicked: and that the righteous should be as the wicked, that be far from thee: Shall not the Judge of all the earth do right?

²⁵That be farre from thee, to do after this maner, to slay the righteous with the wicked, and that the righteous should be as the wicked, that be farre from thee: Shall not the Iudge of all the earth doe right?

¹RIGHTEOUS art thou, O Lord, when I plead with thee: yet let me talk with thee of thy judgments: Wherefore doth the way of the wicked prosper? wherefore are all they happy that deal very treacherously?

¹¶ ^‖*Righteous art thou, O LORD, when I pleade with thee: yet let mee talke with thee of thy iudgements: Wherefore doeth the way of the wicked prosper? Wherefore are all they happie that deale very treacherously?

¹⁸Is it fit to say to a king, Thou art wicked? and to princes, Ye are ungodly?

¹⁹How much less to him that accepteth not the persons of princes, nor regardeth the rich more than the poor? for they all are the work of his hands.

¹⁸ Is it fit to say to a King, Thou art wicked? and to Princes, Ye are vngodly?

^19*How much lesse to him that accepteth not the persons of Princes, nor regardeth the rich more then the poore? for they all are the woorke of his hands.

²Thinkest thou this to be right, that thou saidst, My righteousness is more than God’s?

²Thinkest thou this to bee right, that thou saydest, My righteousnesse is more then Gods?

³And they sing the song of Moses the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvellous are thy works, Lord God Almighty; just and true are thy ways, thou King of saints.

⁴Who shall not fear thee, O Lord, and glorify thy name? for thou only art holy: for all nations shall come and worship before thee; for thy judgments are made manifest.

^3*And they sing the song of Moses the seruant of God, and the song of the Lambe, saying, Great and marueilous are thy workes, Lord God Almightie, ^*iust and true are thy wayes, thou king of saints.

⁵But after thy hardness and impenitent heart treasurest up unto thyself wrath against the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God;

⁵But after thy hardnesse, and impenitent heart, ^*treasurest vp vnto thy selfe wrath, against the day of wrath, and reuelation of the righteous iudgement of God:

¹WHAT advantage then hath the Jew? or what profit is there of circumcision?

¹¶ What aduantage then hath the Iew? or what profit is there of Circumcision?

⁵But if our unrighteousness commend the righteousness of God, what shall we say? Is God unrighteous who taketh vengeance? (I speak as a man)

⁶God forbid: for then how shall God judge the world?

⁵But if our vnrighteousnesse commend the righteousnesse of God, what shall we say? is God vnrighteous who taketh vengeance? (I speake as a man)

⁶God forbid: for then how shall God iudge the world?

¹⁹And he said, I will make all my goodness pass before thee, and I will proclaim the name of the Lord before thee; and will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will shew mercy on whom I will shew mercy.

¹⁶So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy.

¹⁶So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy.

¹⁸Who is a God like unto thee, that pardoneth iniquity, and passeth by the transgression of the remnant of his heritage? he retaineth not his anger for ever, because he delighteth in mercy.

^18*Who is a God like vnto thee, that pardoneth iniquitie, and passeth by the transgression of the remnant of his heritage? hee retaineth not his anger for euer, because he delighteth in mercy.

¹⁸Therefore hath he mercy on whom he will have mercy, and whom he will he hardeneth.
