P. 53

Injustice
      1 He that justifies the wicked and condemns the
      just; both are an abomination to the LORD. 2 He

      has  shown  you  what  is  good;  and  what  the
      LORD requires of you; do justly, to love mercy,
      and to walk humbly with your God.

      3 Judge me, O God, and plead my cause against

      an  ungodly  nation:  O  deliver  me  from  the
      deceitful and unjust man. For you are the God
      of my strength: why do you cast me off? Why
      do  I  mourn  because  of  the  oppression  of  the
      enemy?  4 So, open your mouth for those
      who  cannot  speak;  in  the  cause  of  all

      such  as  are  appointed  to  destruction.
      Open your mouth, judge righteously, and plead
      the cause of the poor and needy!


      5 And do not swear by my name falsely, neither
      shall  you  profane  the  name  of  God:  I  am  the
      LORD. You shall not defraud your neighbor nor
      rob him: the wages of him that you hire shall
      not be kept with you all night until the morning.

      You…  shall  do  no  unrighteousness  in
      judgment: you shall not respect the person of
                              52
