Fire goes before Him
and consumes His foes on every side.

His lightning illuminates the world;
the earth sees and trembles.

The mountains melt like wax
at the presence of the LORD,
before the Lord of all the earth.

The heavens proclaim His righteousness;
all the peoples see His glory.

All worshipers of images are put to shame—
those who boast in idols.
Worship Him, all you gods!

Zion hears and rejoices,
and the towns of Judah exult
because of Your judgments, O LORD.

For You, O LORD, are Most High over all the earth;
You are exalted far above all gods.

Hate evil, O you who love the LORD!
He preserves the souls of His saints;
He delivers them from the hand of the wicked.

Light shines on the righteous,
gladness on the upright in heart.

Rejoice in the LORD, you righteous ones,
and praise His holy name.

עַתָּה יָדַעְתִּי כִּי הוֹשִׁיעַ יְהוָה מְשִׁיחוֹ יַעֲנֵהוּ מִשְּׁמֵי קָדְשׁוֹ בִּגְבֻרוֹת יֵשַׁע יְמִינֽוֹ. אֵלֶּה בָרֶכֶב וְאֵלֶּה בַסּוּסִים וַאֲנַחְנוּ בְּשֵׁם־יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵינוּ נַזְכִּֽיר. הֵמָּה כָּרְעוּ וְנָפָלוּ וַאֲנַחְנוּ קַּמְנוּ וַנִּתְעוֹדָֽד. יְהוָה הוֹשִׁיעָה הַמֶּלֶךְ יַעֲנֵנוּ בְיוֹם־קָרְאֵֽנוּ


Now I know that the LORD saves his anointed; he will answer him from his holy heaven
with the saving might of his right hand.

Some trust in chariots and some in horses,
but we trust in the name of the LORD our God.

They collapse and fall,
but we rise and stand upright.

LORD, give victory to the king! Answer us when we call

He
who made the Pleiades and Orion,

who calls for the waters of the sea
    and pours them out over the face of the land—
    
the Lord is his name

For Elohim knows that when you eat from it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like Elohim, knowing good and evil.”

The woman was convinced. She saw that the tree was beautiful and its fruit looked delicious, and she wanted the wisdom it would give her. So she took some of the fruit and ate it. Then she gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it, too.

Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they realized they were naked; so they sewed fig leaves together and made coverings for themselves

Here is what God says:

Don’t let the wise boast in their wisdom, or the powerful boast in their power, or the rich boast in their riches

Because those who wish to boast
should boast in this alone:

That they truly know me
and by understanding
that I am God [YHVH], defined by
He who demonstrates unfailing love
and who brings justice
and righteousness to the earth,
and in these things I find delight.

With long life I will satisfy him
    and show him my salvation.”

What does RIGHTEOUSNESS really mean and where does it originate from?

Definitions:
צָדַק tsâdaq, tsaw-dak';
a primitive root; to be (causatively, make) right (in a moral or forensic sense):—cleanse, clear self, (be, do) just(-ice, -ify, -ify self), (be turn to) righteous(-ness).

Example:
מִדְּבַר־שֶׁקֶר תִּרְחָק וְנָקִי וְצַדִּיק אַֽל־תַּהֲרֹג כִּי לֹא־אַצְדִּיק רָשָֽׁע

Keep thee far from a false matter; and the innocent and righteous slay thou not: for I will not justify the wicked

#Exodus 23:7

https://t.me/torahtruth

יוֹדֵעַ צַדִּיק נֶפֶשׁ בְּהֶמְתּוֹ וְֽרַחֲמֵי רְשָׁעִים אַכְזָרִֽי. עֹבֵד אַדְמָתוֹ יִֽשְׂבַּֽע־לָחֶם וּמְרַדֵּף רֵיקִים חֲסַר־לֵֽב. חָמַד רָשָׁע מְצוֹד רָעִים וְשֹׁרֶשׁ צַדִּיקִים יִתֵּֽן. בְּפֶשַׁע שְׂפָתַיִם מוֹקֵשׁ רָע וַיֵּצֵא מִצָּרָה צַדִּֽיק. מִפְּרִי פִי־ אִישׁ יִשְׂבַּע־טוֹב וּגְמוּל יְדֵי־אָדָם ישוב לֽוֹ.

Righteous people take good care of their animals, but the wicked know only how to be cruel. Farmers who work their land have plenty of food, but those who waste their time on worthless projects are foolish. The wicked want a share of what an evil man might catch.

But like a plant with deep roots, a righteous man is the one who produces the most.

The wicked are trapped by their foolish words, but righteous people escape from such trouble. People get good things for the words they say, and they are rewarded for the work they do. Fools always think their own way is best, but wise people listen to what others tell them.


#Proverbs 12:10-15
