''Whoever would love life and see good days must, keep his tongue from evil and his lips from deceitful speech, turn from evil and do good, seek peace and pursue it. For the eyes of the Lord are on the RIGHTEOUS and his ears attentive to their prayer''.
from the above scripture, the righteous is he who keeps his lips from deceitful speech, does good, and pursue peace.
isa.1:17
learn to do right (be righteous)! seek justice, encourage the oppressed, defend the cause of the fatherless, plead the case of the widow.
here also we notice that learning to do right entails seeking justice, encouraging the oppressed, defending the cause of the fatherless, pleading the case of the widow
isa.26:10
''Though grace is shown to the wicked they do not learn righteousness; even in the land of uprightness they go on doing evil and regard not the majesty of the Lord''
here the unrighteous one is the wicked, they do not learn righteousness even in the land of the upright, they go on doing evil and disregard the majesty of the Lord (HIM)
