My foot has held fast to His steps; I have kept His way and have not turned aside.
Our heart has not turned back, nor have our steps departed from Your way;
To those who by patiently doing good seek for glory and honor and immortality will be eternal life.
As for those who turn aside to their crooked ways, the Lord will lead them away with the workers of iniquity. Peace be upon Israel!
Keep my steps in Your paths, that my footsteps may not slip.
The righteous also will hold to his way, and he who has clean hands will be stronger and stronger.
For our rejoicing is this: The testimony of our conscience is that we conducted ourselves in the world, and more abundantly toward you, in simplicity and godly sincerity, not with fleshly wisdom, but by the grace of God.
those who have turned back from following the Lord, who have not sought the Lord nor inquired of Him.
The words of his mouth are wickedness and deceit; he has ceased to be wise and to do good.
You and God are witnesses of how pure, upright, and blameless we ourselves behaved among you who believe.
Then I would still have comfort; I would revel in pain; it will not subside, for I have not concealed the words of the Holy One.
If my step has turned out of the path, and my heart has gone after my eyes, and if any spot has clung to my hands,
The proud have me in utter derision, yet I do not forsake Your law.
You know that I am not wicked, and there is none who can deliver out of Your hand.
Yet You have broken us in the place of jackals and covered us with the shadow of death.
Get wisdom; get understanding; do not forget or turn away from the words of my mouth.
