Righteousness is conformity to a standard. The standard is God's moral law—His absolute truth which comes from His true and righteous character.
Looking ahead to the New Testament, we see that we must have the righteousness of Christ applied to our hearts in order to be saved and be on our way to heaven. We must be "justified" by faith in Christ alone.
The George Lawson (1749-1820) quote is from his "Exposition of Proverbs," pp. 245-256.
