Even a millstone will float in the river for a righteous man. — Righteousness

"A righteous man regardeth the life of his beast; but the tender mercies of the wicked are cruel."

"I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread."

"The anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him. And now, little children, abide in him; that, when he shall appear, we may have confidence, and not be ashamed before him at his coming. If ye know that he is righteous, ye know that every one that doeth righteousness is born of him."

"To our constant prayers for the welfare of our country, and of the whole human race, we shall esteem it our duty and happiness to unite our most earnest endeavors to promote the pure and undefiled religion of Christ; for as this secures eternal felicity to men in a future state, so we are persuaded that good Christians will always be good citizens, and that where righteousness prevails among individuals the Nation will be great and happy. Thus while just government protects all in their religious rights, true religion affords to government its surest support."

"When righteousness is cut off, injustice is increased."

"The righteous shall flourish like the palm-tree: he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon."
