- "Butª ifª ourª unrighteousnessª commendª° the righteousnessª of God,ª whatª shall we say?ª°² [Is] Godª unrighteousª who takethª° vengeance?² (I¹ speakª° asª a man)ª ... Forª ifª the¹ truthª of Godª hath more aboundedª° throughª myª lieª untoª his²¹ glory;ª whyª yetª am²° I alsoª judgedª° asª a sinner?ª" {Rom 3:5-7} + "But as for you,¹ ye thoughtª° evilª against¹ me; [but] Godª meant¹ it²° unto good,ª toª bring to pass,ª° as [it is] this¹ day,ª to save²° much² people² alive.ª°¹¹" {Gen 50:20} + "And said,ª° O LORDª Godª of our fathers,ª [art] not¹ thou¹ Godª in heaven?ª and rulestª° [not] thou¹ over all¹ the kingdomsª of the heathen?ª and in thine handª [is there not] powerª and might,ª so that none¹ is able to withstandª°¹ thee?" {2Ch 20:6} + "Behold,¹ he taketh away,ª° who¹ can hinderª° him? who¹ will sayª° unto¹ him, What¹ doestª° thou? ... Whom,¹ though¹ I were righteous,ª° [yet] would I not¹ answer,ª° [but] I would make supplicationª° to my judge.ª°" {Job 9:12-15} + "If¹ [I speak] of strength,ª lo,¹ [he is] strong:ª and if¹ of judgment,ª who¹ shall set²° me a time¹ [to plead]?" {Job 9:19} + "But he¹ [is] in oneª [mind], and who¹ can turnª° him? and [what] his soulª desireth,ª° even [that] he doeth.ª° ...

Howbeit he¹ meanethª° not¹ so,¹ neither¹ doth his heartª thinkª° so;¹ but¹ [it is] in his heartª to destroyª° and cut offª° nationsª not¹ a few.ª" {Isa 10:6-7} + "Declaringª° the endª from the beginning,ª¹ and from ancient timesª¹ [the things] that¹ are not¹ [yet] done,ª° saying,ª° My counselª shall stand,ª° and I will doª° all¹ my pleasure:ª ...
