Psalm 58


 I like how the New Living Translation says verse 1, “Justice- do you know the meaning of the word?. The truth is in ourselves, we don’t. Every step towards justice and equity in the world finds injustice and inequity being lived out. Does this mean we shouldn’t strive for it-No? No. What it does mean is that as humans, we can’t get it right. We think we know what justice is, but we often fall far short. This is why we need God. We need him to show us when we are wrong and what we can try to do to make it right. As is said in proverbs, a righteous person falls seven times and gets up, so when we find we have done wrong,g get up and try again.
