My steps have kept to your paths; my feet have not faltered.
My foot has always walked in his steps; I have kept his way and not turned aside.
Steady my feet in accord with your promise; do not let iniquity lead me.
He will not allow your foot to slip; or your guardian to sleep.
The Lord will guard you from all evil; he will guard your soul.
You have given me your saving shield; your right hand has upheld me; your favor made me great.
You made room for my steps beneath me; my ankles never twisted.
Lord, it is for you that I wait; O Lord, my God, you respond.
All this has come upon us, though we have not forgotten you, nor been disloyal to your covenant.
When I say, “My foot is slipping,” your mercy, Lord, holds me up.
I know, Lord, that no one chooses their way, Nor determines their course nor directs their own step.
He guards the footsteps of his faithful ones, but the wicked shall perish in the darkness; for not by strength does one prevail.
