'Justice' in the Bible

Does God pervert justice?Does the Almighty pervert what is right?

If it is a matter of strength, look, He is the Mighty One!If it is a matter of justice, who can summon Him?

As God lives, who has deprived me of justice,and the Almighty who has made me bitter,

For Job has declared, “I am righteous,yet God has deprived me of justice.

Indeed, it is true that God does not act wickedlyand the Almighty does not pervert justice.

Could one who hates justice govern the world?Will you condemn the mighty Righteous One,

He does not keep the wicked alive,but He gives justice to the afflicted.

Yet now you are obsessed with the judgment due the wicked;judgment and justice have seized you.

The Almighty—we cannot reach Him—He is exalted in power!He will not oppress justice and abundant righteousness,

Would you really challenge My justice?Would you declare Me guilty to justify yourself?
