The LORD shall judge the people: judge me, O LORD, according to my righteousness, and according to mine integrity that is in me. Oh let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end; but establish the just: for the righteous God trieth the hearts and reins.

TEKEL; Thou art weighed in the balances, and art found wanting.

Let my sentence come forth from thy presence; let thine eyes behold the things that are equal. Thou hast proved mine heart; thou hast visited me in the night; thou hast tried me, and shalt find nothing; I am purposed that my mouth shall not transgress.

Talk no more so exceeding proudly; let not arrogancy come out of your mouth: for the LORD is a God of knowledge, and by him actions are weighed.

And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

Shall I count them pure with the wicked balances, and with the bag of deceitful weights?

The LORD God of gods, the LORD God of gods, he knoweth, and Israel he shall know; if it be in rebellion, or if in transgression against the LORD, (save us not this day,)

God forbid that I should justify you: till I die I will not remove mine integrity from me. My righteousness I hold fast, and will not let it go: my heart shall not reproach me so long as I live.

Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts:

For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.

{A Psalm of David.} Judge me, O LORD; for I have walked in mine integrity: I have trusted also in the LORD; therefore I shall not slide.

A just weight and balance are the LORD'S: all the weights of the bag are his work.

Oh that my grief were throughly weighed, and my calamity laid in the balances together!

Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity.

The way of the just is uprightness: thou, most upright, dost weigh the path of the just.
