¹⁹ For I know him, that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall keep the way of the Lord, to do justice and judgment; that the Lord may bring upon Abraham that which he hath spoken of him.

³⁸ And it shall be, if thou wilt hearken unto all that I command thee, and wilt walk in my ways, and do that is right in my sight, to keep my statutes and my commandments, as David my servant did; that I will be with thee, and build thee a sure house, as I built for David, and will give Israel unto thee.

⁸ And rent the kingdom away from the house of David, and gave it thee: and yet thou hast not been as my servant David, who kept my commandments, and who followed me with all his heart, to do that only which was right in mine eyes;

¹¹ And Asa did that which was right in the eyes of the Lord, as did David his father.

⁴³ And he walked in all the ways of Asa his father; he turned not aside from it, doing that which was right in the eyes of the Lord: nevertheless the high places were not taken away; for the people offered and burnt incense yet in the high places.

² And Jehoash did that which was right in the sight of the Lord all his days wherein Jehoiada the priest instructed him.

¹⁴ I put on righteousness, and it clothed me: my judgment was as a robe and a diadem.

¹² For thou, Lord, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield.

¹²¹ I have done judgment and justice: leave me not to mine oppressors.

³³ Who through faith subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions.
