32:4 As for the Rock, 1 his work is perfect,
for all his ways are just.
He is a reliable God who is never unjust,
he is fair 2 and upright.
32:6 Is this how you repay 3 the Lord,
you foolish, unwise people?
Is he not your father, your creator?
He has made you and established you.

2 tn Or “just” (KJV, NAB, NRSV, NLT) or “righteous” (NASB).
3 tn Or “treat” (TEV).
