I am no preacher, but, am a prime sinner and living in this world in HIS mercy. For a sinner like me too, when I read “The Holy Bible” KJV,  the following verses were given in the context of “uprightness” surprisingly found ONLY in the Old Testament .

Deu 9:5 Not for thy righteousness,
or for the uprightness of thine heart,
dost thou go to possess their land:
but for the wickedness of these nations
the LORD thy God doth drive them out from before thee,
and that he may perform the word
which the LORD sware unto thy fathers,
Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

1Ki 3:6 And Solomon said, Thou hast shewed unto thy servant David
my father great mercy,
according as he walked before thee in truth,
and in righteousness,
and in uprightness of heart with thee;
and thou hast kept for him this great kindness,
that thou hast given him a son to sit on his throne,
as it is this day.

1Ki 9:4 And if thou wilt walk before me, as David thy father walked,
in integrity of heart,
and in uprightness,
to do according to all that I have commanded thee,
and wilt keep my statutes and my judgments:

1Ch 29:17 I know also, my God, that thou triest the heart,
and hast pleasure in uprightness. As for me,
in the uprightness of mine heart
I have willingly offered all these things:
and now have I seen with joy thy people,
which are present here,
to offer willingly unto thee.

thy confidence,
thy hope,
and the uprightness of thy ways?

for thou art my God:
thy spirit is good;
lead me into the land of uprightness.

to walk in the ways of darkness;

Pro 14:2 He that walketh in his uprightness feareth the LORD:
but he that is perverse in his ways despiseth him.

Pro 28:6 Better is the poor that walketh in his uprightness,
than he that is perverse in his ways,
though he be rich.

thou, most upright,
dost weigh the path of the just.

yet will he not learn righteousness:

and will not behold the majesty of the LORD.

they shall rest in their beds,
each one walking in his uprightness.

About David Mathi Raj Samuel
I was engaged in the computer field since 1977, particularly in Documentation, Desktop Publishing & Training field since 1986. The design work provided me creative satisfaction and motivated me to look for more challenging activities. I was having a taste for Technical Writing. Presently, My SME (Subject-Matter Expert) is "The Holy Bible (KJV)" and publishing the "Subject" from the Holy Bible only. I am 69 years old now and in HIS mercy. 2022, I was admitted in the hospital due to nervous attack and bed-ridden. In the Hospital they did all the tests and gave up and said it can't be cured. Due to circumstances I was in a Home for Elders in Gurugram, India for 18 months with a 24X7 attendent. I prayed to God YeHoVaH to give me death or life to live to HIS glory. My prayers were heard, I was given life. I came out walking from the Home and witnessing the work of God every day. I am able to move alone now, Weakness and the pain in the body remains. From June 2024 onwards I returned to my routine and reading Holy Bible, Preparing daily Bible understanding , as I did earlier but with two fingers in Android and Notebook. Watering the plants, making kitchen compost, repotting the plants with fertilizer, manures, cow dung; bathing and dressing myself but buttoning is not possible. Pray for everyone that lives in my physical condition to be strengthened. YeHoVaH be pleased.
