Now when Abramwas ninety-nineyearsold,the LORDappearedto Abramand saidto him, "I am GodAlmighty;WalkbeforeMe, and be blameless.
"Lo,Godwill not reject[a man of] integrity,Norwill He supportthe evildoers.
EventhoughI walkthrough the valleyof the shadowof death,I fearnoevil,for You are with me; Your rodand Your staff,they comfortme.
Let integrityand uprightnesspreserveme, For I waitfor You.
For the LORDGodis a sunand shield;The LORDgivesgraceand glory;Nogoodthingdoes He withholdfrom those who walkuprightly.
He whohasa crookedmindfindsnogood,And he who is pervertedin his languagefallsinto evil.
[Though his] hatredcoversitself with guile,His wickednesswill be revealedbefore the assembly.
The wickedfleewhen nooneis pursuing,But the righteousare boldas a lion.
He who walksblamelesslywill be delivered,But he who is crookedwill fallallat once.
Thenyou will walkin your waysecurelyAnd your footwill not stumble.
"Thereforedo not fearthem, for there is nothingconcealedthat will not be revealed,orhiddenthat will not be known.

Likewisealso,deedsthat are goodare quite evident,and thosewhich are otherwisecannotbe concealed.
