“Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it.”
“Depart from evil, and do good; Seek peace, and pursue it. ”
“Depart from evil, and do good. seek peace, and pursue it.”
“Turn away from evil and do what is right! Strive for peace and promote it!”
“As a neighbour and as an own brother, so did I please: as one mourning and sorrowful so was I humbled.”
“Be turned from evil, and do good; make a search for peace, desiring it with all your heart.”
“Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it.”
Unfair witnesses have risen up, interrogating me about things of which I am ignorant.
They repaid me evil for good, to the deprivation of my soul.
But as for me, when they were harassing me, I was clothed with haircloth. I humbled my soul with fasting, and my prayer will become my sinews.
Like a neighbor, and like our brother, so did I please; like one mourning and contrite, so was I humbled.
And they have been joyful against me, and they joined together. Scourges have been gathered over me, and I was ignorant of it.
They have been scattered, yet they were unremorseful. They have tested me. They scoffed at me with scorn. They gnashed their teeth over me.
Lord, when will you look down upon me? Restore my soul from before their malice, my only one from before the lions.
