Bible Verses About Integrity

if I have lifted up my hand against the fatherless because I saw that I had support in the gate,

then may my arm fall from my shoulder and be torn from its socket.

For calamity from God terrifies me, and His splendor I cannot overpower.

If I have put my trust in gold or called pure gold my security,

if I have rejoiced in my great wealth because my hand had gained so much,

if I have beheld the sun in its radiance or the moon moving in splendor,

so that my heart was secretly enticed and my hand threw a kiss from my mouth,

this would also be an iniquity to be judged, for I would have denied God on high.

If I have rejoiced in my enemy’s ruin, or exulted when evil befell him—

I have not allowed my mouth to sin by asking for his life with a curse—

but no stranger had to lodge on the street, for my door has been open to the traveler—

if I have covered my transgressions like Adam by hiding my guilt in my heart,

because I greatly feared the crowds and the contempt of the clans terrified me, so that I kept silent and would not go outside—

(Oh, that I had one to hear me! Here is my signature. Let the Almighty answer me; let my accuser compose an indictment.

O LORD my God, if I have done this, if injustice is on my hands,

if I have rewarded my ally with evil, if I have plundered my foe without cause,

then may my enemy pursue me and overtake me; may he trample me to the ground and leave my honor in the dust. Selah

O LORD, who may abide in Your tent? Who may dwell on Your holy mountain?

He who walks with integrity and practices righteousness, who speaks the truth from his heart,
