5:13 For this reason whoever is smart keeps quiet in such a time,
for it is an evil time.
5:14 Seek good and not evil so you can live!
Then the Lord, the God who commands armies, just might be with you,
as you claim he is.
5:15 Hate what is wrong, love what is right!
Promote justice at the city gate!
Maybe the Lord, the God who commands armies, will have mercy on those who are left from Joseph.
5:24 Justice must flow like torrents of water,
righteous actions like a stream that never dries up.
