“ So listen to me, you men of understanding. Far be it from God to do evil, from the Almighty to do wrong.

“ So listen to me, you men who have understanding. God would never do what is evil. The Mighty One would never do what is wrong.

“ Therefore, hear me, you men of understanding: far be it from God that he should do wickedness, and from the Almighty that he should do wrong.

“ Listen to me, you who have understanding. Everyone knows that God doesn’t sin! The Almighty can do no wrong.

Therefore listen to me, you men of understanding. It is impossible for God to do wrong, and for the Almighty to act unjustly.

“ Therefore listen to me, you men of understanding: Far be it from God to do wickedness, And from the Almighty to commit iniquity.

Therefore 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.

Therefore listen to me, you men of understanding. It is impossible for God to do wrong, and for the Almighty to act unjustly.

Therefore 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.

“ Therefore, listen to me, you men of understanding. Far be it from God to do wickedness, from the Almighty to do evil.

“ Therefore listen to me, you men of understanding: far be it from God, that he should do wickedness, from the Almighty, that he should commit iniquity.

The Rock! His work is perfect, For all His ways are just; A God of faithfulness and without injustice, Righteous and just is He.

What shall we say then? There is no injustice with God, is there? Far from it!

Far be it from You to do such a thing, to kill the righteous with the wicked, so that the righteous and the wicked are treated alike. Far be it from You! Shall not the Judge of all the earth deal justly?”

Does God pervert justice? Or does the Almighty pervert what is right?

Far from it! Rather, God must prove to be true, though every person be found a liar, as it is written:“ So that You are justified in Your words, And prevail when You are judged.”But if our unrighteousness demonstrates the righteousness of God, what shall we say? The God who inflicts wrath is not unrighteous, is He?( I am speaking from a human viewpoint.)

Now then, let the fear of the Lord be upon you; be careful about what you do, for the Lord our God will have no part in injustice or partiality, or in the taking of a bribe.”

Who has appointed Him His way, And who has said,‘ You have done wrong’?

One who commits adultery with a woman is lacking sense; He who would destroy himself commits it.

To declare that the Lord is just; He is my rock, and there is no malice in Him.

Righteous are You, Lord, when I plead my case with You; Nevertheless I would discuss matters of justice with You: Why has the way of the wicked prospered? Why are all those who deal in treachery at ease?

The Almighty— we cannot find Him; He is exalted in power And He will not violate justice and abundant righteousness.

No one is to say when he is tempted,“ I am being tempted by God”; for God cannot be tempted by evil, and He Himself does not tempt anyone.

One who neglects discipline rejects himself, But one who listens to a rebuke acquires understanding.

Men of understanding will say to me, And a wise man who hears me,

“ Hear my words, you wise men, And listen to me, you who understand.For the ear tests words As the palate tastes food.
