JMNT(i)
4 Certainly not! (May it not come to be!)
Now God must repeatedly come to be true (or: let God continually be birthed genuine and real),
though every man [
is]
a liar – even as it has been written: "So that You should be justified (seen as fair and equitable – in accord with the way pointed out)
within Your words (or: sayings),
and You will repeatedly overcome (conquer)
within the [
situation or time for]
You to be periodically judged and decided about (or: You will be wining the case when You are tried).
" [
Ps. 51:4 & 6]
5 However (or: But; Now)
if our injustice (disregard for what is right; behavior contrary to the Way pointed out)
continues to stand together with (is jointly establishing; habitually commends)
God’s solidarity in fair and equitable dealings ([covenantal] justice; Way pointed out; rightwised direction),
what shall we continue saying (or: declaring)
? God, the One continuously bringing the personal emotion (inherent fervor; impulse; or: wrath; anger; indignation), [
is]
not unjust! – after the manner of a man (down from [my] humanity)
I normally say, "Certainly not (May it not come to be)!
" (or: [Is] not God, the One repeatedly bringing on the personal emotion against mankind or anger in correspondence to humanity, unjust? I repeatedly say, "It can't happen!"; or: God [is] not unfair by being the one constantly bringing this inherent fervor and impulse against a person. I am now saying, "It could not occur!")
6 Else (or: Otherwise),
how is God constantly making decisions about and repeatedly judging (or, as a future: how will God separate, evaluate and be judging)
the ordered System (the controlling world of society, economy, government and religion; human aggregate)?
