What is right? Surely, right is First, The Law, Secondly, that which is done according to Law. The statutes of God are right, rejoicing the heart (Psal: 19.8.) The word of God is right, and the rule of right, yea it is a ruling right. To pervert that which is right, or to pervert the law of righteousness, is to act against the ⟨p. 449⟩light and convictions of conscience which will be our Judge. One of the latin interpreters useth a harsh and course word to press this by; yet full and proper to the scope;1 I have t•rtified (or writhed and bended) that which was right. Another renders it, I have prevaricated from that which was right. Our word gives the sense fully enough, I have sinned, and perverted that which was right.
