Lexicon :: Strong's H6666 - ṣᵊḏāqâ

This ^H3541 is ^H3541 what ^H3541 the LORD ^H3068 says ^H559:

“Guard ^H8104 justice ^H4941 and do ^H6213 righteousness ^H6666,

For My salvation ^H3444 is about ^H7138 to come ^H935

And My righteousness ^H6666 to be revealed ^H1540.

“I will declare ^H5046 your righteousness ^H6666 and your deeds ^H4639,

And they will not benefit ^H3276 you.

“Yet they seek ^H1875 Me day ^H3117 by day ^H3117 and delight ^H2654 to know ^H1847 My ways ^H1870,

As a nation ^H1471 that has done ^H6213 righteousness ^H6666

And has not forsaken ^H5800 the ordinance ^H4941 of their God ^H430.

They ask ^H7592 Me for just ^H6664 decisions ^H4941,

They delight ^H2654 in the nearness ^H7132 of God ^H430.

Therefore ^H5921 H3651 justice ^H4941 is ^H7368 far ^H7368 from us,

And righteousness ^H6666 does not reach ^H5381 us;

We hope ^H6960 for light ^H216, but there ^H2009 is darkness ^H2822,

For brightness ^H5054, but we walk ^H1980 in gloom ^H653.

Justice ^H4941 is turned ^H5472 back ^H268,

And righteousness ^H6666 stands ^H5975 far ^H7350 away ^H4480;

For truth ^H571 has stumbled ^H3782 in the street ^H7339,

And uprightness ^H5228 cannot ^H3201 H3808 enter ^H935.

And He saw ^H7200 that there ^H369 was ^H369 no ^H369 one ^H376,

And was amazed ^H8074 that there ^H369 was ^H369 not ^H369 one ^H369 to intercede ^H6293;

Then His own arm ^H2220 brought ^H3467 salvation ^H3467 to Him,

And His righteousness ^H6666 upheld ^H5564 Him.

“Instead ^H8478 of ^H8478 bronze ^H5178 I will bring ^H935 gold ^H2091,

And instead ^H8478 of ^H8478 iron ^H1270 I will bring ^H935 silver ^H3701,

And instead ^H8478 of ^H8478 wood ^H6086, bronze ^H5178,

And instead ^H8478 of ^H8478 stones ^H68, iron ^H1270.

And I will make ^H7760 peace ^H7965 your administrators ^H6486,

And righteousness ^H6666 your overseers ^H5065.

I will rejoice ^H7797 greatly ^H7797 in the LORD ^H3068,

My soul ^H5315 will be ^H1523 joyful ^H1523 in my God ^H430;

For He has clothed ^H3847 me with garments ^H899 of salvation ^H3468,

He has wrapped ^H5844 me with a robe ^H4598 of righteousness ^H6666,

As a groom ^H2860 puts ^H3547 on ^H3547 a turban ^H6287,

And as a bride ^H3618 adorns ^H5710 herself with her jewels ^H3627.

Who ^H4310 is this ^H2088 who comes ^H935 from Edom ^H123,

With garments ^H899 of [fn]glowing ^H2556 colors ^H2556 from Bozrah ^H1224,

This ^H2088 One ^H2088 who is majestic ^H1921 in His apparel ^H3830,

[fn]Marching ^H6805 in the greatness ^H7230 of His strength ^H3581?

“It is I, the One who speaks ^H1696 in righteousness ^H6666, mighty ^H7227 to save ^H3467.”

For all ^H3605 of us have become ^H1961 like one who is unclean ^H2931,

And all ^H3605 our righteous ^H6666 deeds ^H6666 are like a filthy ^H5708 garment ^H899;

And all ^H3605 of us wither ^H5034 like a leaf ^H5929,

And our wrongdoings ^H5771, like the wind ^H7307, take ^H5375 us away.

And if you will swear ^H7650, ‘As the LORD ^H3068 lives ^H2416,’

In truth ^H571, in justice ^H4941, and in righteousness ^H6666;

Then the nations ^H1471 will bless ^H1288 themselves in Him,

And in Him they will boast ^H1984.”

“Do you become ^H4427 a ^H4427 king ^H4427 because ^H3588 you are competing ^H2734 in cedar ^H730?

Did your father ^H1 not eat ^H398 and drink ^H8354

And do ^H6213 justice ^H4941 and righteousness ^H6666?

Then ^H227 it was well ^H2895 for him.

“Behold ^H2009, the days ^H3117 are coming ^H935,” declares ^H5002 the LORD ^H3068,

“When I will raise ^H6965 up ^H6965 for David ^H1732 a righteous ^H6662 [fn]Branch ^H6780;

And He will reign ^H4427 as king ^H4428 and [fn]act ^H7919 wisely ^H7919

And do ^H6213 justice ^H4941 and righteousness ^H6666 in the land ^H776.

The LORD ^H3068 has brought ^H3318 [fn]about ^H3318 our vindication ^H6666;

Come ^H935 and let’s recount ^H5608 in Zion ^H6726

The work ^H4639 of the LORD ^H3068 our God ^H430!

“But if ^H3588 a man ^H376 is righteous ^H6662 and practices ^H6213 justice ^H4941 and righteousness ^H6666,

“Yet you say ^H559, ‘Why ^H4069 should the son ^H1121 not suffer ^H5375 the punishment for the father’s ^H1 guilt ^H5771?’ When the son ^H1121 has practiced ^H6213 justice ^H4941 and righteousness ^H6666 and has kept ^H8104 all ^H3605 My statutes ^H2708 and done ^H6213 them, he shall certainly ^H2421 live ^H2421.

“But when a righteous ^H6662 person ^H6662 turns ^H7725 away ^H7725 from his righteousness ^H6666, commits ^H6213 injustice ^H5766 and does ^H6213 according to all ^H3605 the abominations ^H8441 that the wicked ^H7563 person ^H7563 does ^H6213, will he live ^H2421? All ^H3605 his righteous ^H6666 deeds ^H6666 which ^H834 he has done ^H6213 will not be remembered ^H2142 for his treachery ^H4603 H4604 which ^H834 he has committed ^H4603 and his sin ^H2403 which ^H834 he has committed ^H2398; for them he will die ^H4191.

‘This ^H3541 is ^H3541 what ^H3541 the Lord ^H136 [fn]GOD ^H3068 says ^H559: “Enough ^H7227, you princes ^H5387 of Israel ^H3478; get ^H5493 rid ^H5493 of violence ^H2555 and destruction ^H7701, and practice ^H6213 justice ^H4941 and righteousness ^H6666. Revoke ^H7311 your evictions ^H1646 of My people ^H5971,” declares ^H5002 the Lord ^H136 GOD ^H3068.

“Righteousness ^H6666 belongs to You, Lord ^H136, but to us [fn]open ^H6440 shame ^H1322, as it is this ^H2088 day ^H3117—to the men ^H376 of Judah ^H3063, the inhabitants ^H3427 of Jerusalem ^H3389, and all ^H3605 Israel ^H3478, those who are nearby ^H7138 and those who are far ^H7350 away in all ^H3605 the countries ^H776 to which ^H834 You have driven ^H5080 them, because of their unfaithful ^H4603 H4604 deeds ^H4604 which ^H834 they have committed ^H4603 against You.

Sow ^H2232 for yourselves, with a view to righteousness ^H6666;

Harvest ^H7114 in accordance ^H6310 with [fn]kindness ^H2617.

Break ^H5214 up your uncultivated ^H5215 ground ^H5215,

For it is time ^H6256 to seek ^H1875 the LORD ^H3068

Until ^H5704 He comes ^H935 and rains ^H3384 righteousness ^H6664 on you.

So shout ^H1523 for ^H1523 joy ^H1523, you sons ^H1121 of Zion ^H6726,

And rejoice ^H8055 in the LORD ^H3068 your God ^H430;

For He has given ^H5414 you [fn]the early ^H4175 rain ^H4175 for your vindication ^H6666.

And He has brought ^H3381 down ^H3381 for you the rain ^H1653,

The [fn]early ^H4175 and [fn]latter ^H4456 rain ^H4456 [fn]as before ^H7223.

For those who turn ^H2015 justice ^H4941 into wormwood ^H3939,

And [fn]throw ^H5117 righteousness ^H6666 to the earth ^H776.”

“But let justice ^H4941 roll ^H1556 out ^H1556 like waters ^H4325,

And righteousness ^H6666 like an ever-flowing ^H386 stream ^H5158.

Do horses ^H5483 run ^H7323 on rocks ^H5553?

Or ^H518 does one [fn]plow ^H2790 them with oxen ^H1241?

Yet ^H3588 you have turned ^H2015 justice ^H4941 into poison ^H7219,

And the fruit ^H6529 of righteousness ^H6666 into [fn]wormwood ^H3939,

“My people ^H5971, remember ^H2142 now ^H4994

What ^H4100 Balak ^H1111 king ^H4428 of Moab ^H4124 planned ^H3289

And what ^H4100 Balaam ^H1109 son ^H1121 of Beor ^H1160 answered ^H6030 him,

And what happened from Shittim ^H7851 to Gilgal ^H1537,

[fn]So ^H4616 that ^H4616 you might know ^H3045 the righteous ^H6666 acts ^H6666 of the LORD ^H3068.”

I will endure ^H5375 the rage ^H2197 of the LORD ^H3068

Because ^H3588 I have sinned ^H2398 against Him,

Until ^H5704 H834 He pleads ^H7378 my case ^H7379 and executes ^H6213 justice ^H4941 for me.

He will bring ^H3318 me out ^H3318 to the light ^H216,

And I will look ^H7200 at His [fn]righteousness ^H6666.
