                                 Forgiving Debt

                                   a
            After settling a bitter dispute
            Some resentment remains
            How can this be good?

                                                    a
            The righteous man upholds his half of the bargain
            But does not demand anything from the other

            The righteous fulfill their obligations
                                         a
            But the unrighteous demand compensation

                                           b
            Though our Heavenly God is impartial,
                                         c
            He gives to those who serve others
