19
Therefore all their works are as the sun before Him, and His eyes are continually upon their ways.
20
None of their unrighteous deeds are hid from Him, but all their sins are before the Lord.
21
But the Lord, being gracious and knowing His workmanship, neither left nor forsook them, but spared them.
22
The almsgiving of a man is as a signet with Him, and He will keep the good deeds of man as the apple of the eye, and give repentance to His sons and daughters.
23
Afterwards He will rise up and reward them, and render their recompense upon their heads.
24
But unto them that repent, He granted them return, and comforted those that failed in patience.
25
Return unto the Lord, and forsake thy sins; make thy prayer before His face, and offend less.
26
Turn again to the Most High, and turn away from iniquity; for He will lead thee out of darkness into the light of health, and hate thou abomination vehemently.
27
Who shall praise the Most High in the grave, instead of them that live and give thanks?
28
Thanksgiving perisheth from the dead, as from one that is no more; the living and sound in heart shall praise the Lord.
29
How great is the lovingkindness of the Lord our God, and His compassion unto such as turn unto Him in holiness!
