WHAT A NATION NEEDS
34 Righteousness exalteth a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people.
11 By the blessing of the upright the city is exalted: but it is overthrown by the mouth of the wicked.
10 Let favour be shewed to the wicked, yet will he not learn righteousness: in the land of uprightness will he deal unjustly, and will not behold the majesty of the Lord.
5 Take away the wicked from before the king, and his throne shall be established in righteousness.
12 It is an abomination to kings to commit wickedness: for the throne is established by righteousness.
7 For my mouth shall speak truth; and wickedness is an abomination to my lips.
27 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:
14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
