Psalm 58, Do what is just

Psalm 58:1 Psalms of David in metre
Do ye, O congregation,
indeed speak righteousness?
O ye that are the sons of men,
judge ye with uprightness?

The psalmist is desiring true justice,
a justice which cannot be derailed, denied or mocked,
because it is God's justice.
The legal profession is a major industry.
Our courts of justice are fully active and at great cost.
Public awareness of the God of Justice is not so high.
Secularists would even remove God from our courts of justice
in the UK and in the USA.
But for the Christian believer
who is at one with the God of justice,
We must ourselves ;-
                               do what is right,
                               show constant love,
                               and live in humble fellowship
                               with our God.
                                                    (Micah 6:8  GNB)
Men will say,
                    "There is , then , a reward for the righteous;
                     there is, indeed, divine justice on earth."
