14
Over every nation he set a ruler.
15
And Israel was made the manifest portion of God.
16
And all their works are as the sun in the sight of God: and his eyes are continually upon their ways.
17
Their covenants were not hid by their iniquity, and all their iniquities are in the sight of God.
18
The alms of a man is as a signet with him, and shall preserve the grace of a man as the apple of the eye:
19
And afterward he shall rise up, and shall render them their reward, to every one upon their own head, and shall turn them down into the bowels of the earth.
20
But to the penitent he hath given the way of justice, and he hath strengthened them that were fainting in patience, and hath appointed to them the lot of truth.
21
Turn to the Lord, and forsake thy sins:
22
Make thy prayer before the face of the Lord, and offend less.
23
Return to the Lord, and turn away from thy injustice, and greatly hate abomination.
24
And know the justices and judgments of God, and stand firm in the lot set before thee, and in prayer to the most high God.
