The Rock! His work is perfect, For all His ways are just; A God of faithfulness and without injustice, Righteous and upright is He.
Deuteronomy 32:4 (NIVUS)
He is the Rock, his works are perfect, and all his ways are just. A faithful God who does no wrong, upright and just is he.
Deuteronomy 32:4 (NRSV)
The Rock, his work is perfect, and all his ways are just. A faithful God, without deceit, just and upright is he;
The Lord your God is called many things. Some of these are derivatives of His name and some describe His nature and character. All give you insight into the One who is your Creator. This knowledge increases your faith and trust in Him.
One of these descriptive terms is the Rock, given because He is solid, firm, and strong. He is an impenetrable wall that protects you from all onslaughts. When He lifts you with His hands, He is a cliff that no foe can scale or climb.
Everything that the Lord makes is perfect and complete. His works are wholesome and sound. Everything He does is in accord with His Truth. He always deals with integrity, acting from His uprightness.
Adonai is always just in His ways. He rectifies all wrongs, correcting and restoring what the evil one has tried to destroy. His is the seat of judgment and He always makes the final decision. He is the one who hands down the sentence and metes out punishment to those who oppose Him. He vindicates the innocent and pure.
Jehovah is a God, who is faithful and steadfast. He supports you as pillars support doors. He nourishes and cares for you like a nurse cares for her patients. Since you are made in His image and believe in His name, you are made firm, sure, and lasting, even as He is firm, sure, and lasting. He upholds you through His strength and power.
In Yahweh, there is no injustice or unrighteousness. He does nothing wrong. He never deviates from the Truth, for He is the Truth. All of His ways are pleasing and agreeable. He makes your path straight, smooth, and level. He leads you into what is proper and fitting.
He is Jehovah, the Rock of your salvation! All praise is due Him!
