It is required of us that we be tender of the good name of our brethren; where we cannot speak well, we had better say nothing than speak evil; we must not take pleasure in making known the faults of others, divulging things that are secret, merely to expose them, nor in making more of their known faults than really they deserve, and, least of all, in making false stories, and spreading things concerning them of which they are altogether innocent. What is this but to raise the hatred and encourage the persecutions of the world, against those who are engaged in the same interests with ourselves, and therefore with whom we ourselves must stand or fall?
Matthew Henry

Bible – Finnish 1938 Psalms Chapter 99:1-9.

99:1 Herra on kuningas, vaviskoot kansat – hän, jonka valtaistuinta kerubit kannattavat – huojukoon maa.

99:2 Suuri on Herra Siionissa, hän on korkea yli kaikkien kansojen.

99:3 He ylistävät sinun suurta ja peljättävää nimeäsi. Hän on pyhä.

99:4 Se on kuninkaan voima, että hän rakastaa oikeutta. Sinä olet saattanut oikeuden voimaan, sinä toimitat oikeuden ja vanhurskauden Jaakobissa.

99:5 Ylistäkää Herraa, meidän Jumalaamme, kumartukaa hänen jalkainsa astinlaudan eteen. Hän on pyhä.

99:6 Mooses ja Aaron hänen pappiensa joukossa ja Samuel niiden joukossa, jotka avuksi huusivat hänen nimeänsä, he huusivat Herraa, ja hän vastasi heille.

99:7 Hän puhui heille pilvenpatsaasta; he noudattivat hänen todistuksiansa ja käskyjä, jotka hän oli heille antanut.

99:8 Herra, meidän Jumalamme, sinä vastasit heille, olit heille anteeksiantava Jumala, vaikka sinä heidän pahat tekonsa kostit.

99:9 Ylistäkää Herraa, meidän Jumalaamme, rukoilkaa kumartuneina hänen pyhää vuortansa kohti; sillä Herra, meidän Jumalamme, on pyhä.
