Isaiah33:15
15. He that walketh righteously , and speaketh uprightly , he that despiseth the gains of oppressions, that shaketh his hands from holding of bribes, that stoppeth his ears from hearing of blood , and shutteth his eyes from seeing evil .
Who is just in all His dealings with Men, of which the following Clauses explain it: Which is not spoken exclusively, as if Piety towards God were not as necessary, as Righteousness towards Men; but comprehensively, this being one Evidence, and a constant companion of Piety.
Who speaks truly and sincerely, what He really intends.
That refuseth it, not for politick Reasons, as Men sometimes may do, but from a contempt and abhorrency of injustice.
Or, from taking or receiving; as this Verb signifies, Prov. 4. 4. & 5. 5. & 28▪ 17. That will not receive, much less retain, Bribes.
Who will not hearken or assent to any Counsels or Courses, tending to shed innocent Blood.
That abhorreth the very sight of Sin, committed by others, and guardeth his Eyes from beholding occasions of Sin, of which, see on Iob. 31. 1.
