You would never kill godly people along with those who are evil, would you? Would you treat them all alike? You would never do anything like that! Won’t the Judge of the whole earth do what is right?”

将义人与恶人同杀，将义人与恶人一样看待，这断不是你所行的。审判全地的主岂不行公义吗？”

你绝不会做这样的事，把义人与恶人一同杀了，使义人与恶人一样。你绝不会这样！审判全地的主岂不做公平的事吗？”

你绝不会黑白不分，把义人和恶人一同毁灭。你是普天下的审判者，难道不秉公行事吗？”

善惡倂誅、臧否同待、此斷非爾所為、鞫天下者、豈不行義乎、

並誅善惡不可、待善惡相等亦不可、鞫天下者、豈不行義乎。

不分善惡俱誅、待善惡相均、此固非主所為、鞫天下者豈不行公義乎、

Far be it from you to do such a thing— to kill the righteous with the wicked, treating the righteous and the wicked alike. Far be it from you! Will not the Judge of all the earth do right?”

Far be it from you to do such a thing, to put the righteous to death with the wicked, so that the righteous fare as the wicked! Far be that from you! Shall not the Judge of all the earth do what is just?”

Surely you wouldn’t do such a thing, destroying the righteous along with the wicked. Why, you would be treating the righteous and the wicked exactly the same! Surely you wouldn’t do that! Should not the Judge of all the earth do what is right?”

You could not possibly do such a thing: to kill the righteous with the wicked, treating the righteous and the wicked alike. You could not possibly do that! Won’t the Judge of the whole earth do what is just?”

Far be it from You to do such a thing, to kill the righteous with the wicked, so that the righteous and the wicked are treated alike. Far be it from You! Shall not the Judge of all the earth deal justly?”

Far be it from You to do such a thing as this, to slay the righteous with the wicked, so that the righteous should be as the wicked; far be it from You! Shall not the Judge of all the earth do right?”

That be far from thee to do after this manner, to slay the righteous with the wicked, that so the righteous should be as the wicked; that be far from thee: shall not the Judge of all the earth do right?

You could not possibly do such a thing: to kill the righteous with the wicked, treating the righteous and the wicked alike. You could not possibly do that! Won’t the Judge of all the earth do what is just?”

That be far from thee to do after this manner, to slay the righteous with the wicked: and that the righteous should be as the wicked, that be far from thee: Shall not the Judge of all the earth do right?

Far be it from you to do such a thing– to kill the godly with the wicked, treating the godly and the wicked alike! Far be it from you! Will not the judge of the whole earth do what is right?”

May it be far from you to do things like that, to kill the righteous with the wicked, so that the righteous should be like the wicked. May that be far from you. Shouldn’t the Judge of all the earth do right?”

“ I’m sure God doesn’t turn his back on anyone who is honest. And he doesn’t help those who do what is evil.

Does God ever treat people unfairly? Does the Mighty One make what is wrong appear to be right?

Then people will say,“ The godly will get their reward. There really is a God who judges the earth.”

He is the Rock. His works are perfect. All his ways are right. He is faithful. He doesn’t do anything wrong. He is honest and fair.

Tell those who do what is right that things will go well with them. They will enjoy the results of the good things they’ve done.But how terrible it will be for those who do what is evil! Trouble is about to fall on them. They will be paid back for the evil things they’ve done.

Judge of the earth, rise up. Pay back proud people for what they have done.

Doesn’t the fact that we are wrong prove more clearly that God is right? Then what can we say? Can we say that God is not fair when he brings his anger down on us? As you can tell, I am just using human ways of thinking.God is certainly fair! If he weren’t, how could he judge the world?

Let them sing to the Lord, because he is coming to judge the earth. He will judge the nations of the world in keeping with what is right and fair.

We must all stand in front of Christ to be judged. Each one of us will be judged for what we do while in our bodies. We’ll be judged for the good things and the bad things. Then each of us will receive what we are supposed to get.

In my meaningless life here’s what I’ve seen. I’ve seen godly people dying even though they are godly. And I’ve seen sinful people living a long time even though they are sinful.

Those who are right with God die. And no one really cares about it. People who are faithful to the Lord are swept away by trouble. And no one understands why that happens to those who do what is right.Those who lead honest lives will enjoy peace and rest when they die.

Then once again you will see the difference between godly people and sinful people. And you will see the difference between those who serve me and those who do not.

Also, the Father does not judge anyone. He has given the Son the task of judging.Then all people will honor the Son just as they honor the Father. Whoever does not honor the Son does not honor the Father, who sent him.“ What I’m about to tell you is true. Anyone who hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life. They will not be judged. They have crossed over from death to life.What I’m about to tell you is true. A time is coming for me to give life. In fact, it has already begun. The dead will hear the voice of the Son of God. Those who hear it will live.The Father has life in himself. He has allowed the Son also to have life in himself.And the Father has given him the authority to judge. This is because he is the Son of Man.

It all amounts to the same thing. That’s why I say,‘ God destroys honest people and sinful people alike.’Suppose a plague brings sudden death. Then he laughs when those who haven’t sinned lose hope.

Lord, when I bring a matter to you, you always do what is right. But now I would like to speak with you about whether you are being fair. Why are sinful people successful? Why do those who can’t be trusted have an easy life?

An evil person may be guilty of a hundred crimes. Yet they may still live a long time. But I know that things will go better with those who have great respect for God.Sinful people don’t respect God. So things won’t go well with them. Like a shadow, they won’t be around very long.

The Lord watches over those who do what is right. But he really hates sinful people and those who love to hurt others.He will pour out flaming coals and burning sulfur on those who do what is wrong. A hot and dry wind will destroy them.The Lord always does what is right. So he loves it when people do what is fair. Those who are honest will enjoy his blessing.

Can someone who hates to be fair govern? Will you bring charges against the holy and mighty God?He says to kings,‘ You are worthless.’ He says to nobles,‘ You are evil.’He doesn’t favor princes. He treats rich people and poor people the same. His hands created all of them.
