What does the Bible say about injustice?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible speaks against injustice and emphasizes the need for righteousness, as seen in Proverbs 21:15.

Injustice is condemned throughout Scripture, where God calls His people to love righteousness and justice. Proverbs 21:15 states, "It is joy to the just to do judgment: but destruction shall be to the workers of iniquity." This verse emphasizes that justice is aligned with God’s character, and it brings joy to those who uphold it. The arrest and trial of Jesus exemplify profound injustice, as He was wrongfully accused and mistreated—even though He was entirely innocent. Christians are called to reflect God's justice and address injustices in their communities by promoting truth and righteousness.
