¹⁰¹ I have refrained my feet from every evil way, That I might observe thy word.

¹⁵ My son, walk not thou in the way with them; Refrain thy foot from their path:

¹⁰ For, He that would love life, And see good days, Let him refrain his tongue from evil, And his lips that they speak no guile:

¹¹ And let him turn away from evil, and do good; Let him seek peace, and pursue it.

¹ Putting away therefore all wickedness, and all guile, and hypocrisies, and envies, and all evil speakings,

² as newborn babes, long for the spiritual milk which is without guile, that ye may grow thereby unto salvation;

¹¹ For the grace of God hath appeared, bringing salvation to all men,

¹² instructing us, to the intent that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly and righteously and godly in this present world;

³⁶ Why gaddest thou about so much to change thy way? thou shalt be ashamed of Egypt also, as thou wast ashamed of Assyria.

⁷ let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts; and let him return unto Jehovah, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.

⁶ All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and Jehovah hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.

¹²⁶ It is time for Jehovah to work; `For' they have made void thy law.

¹⁰⁴ Through thy precepts I get understanding: Therefore I hate every false way.

⁵⁹ I thought on my ways, And turned my feet unto thy testimonies.

⁶⁰ I made haste, and delayed not, To observe thy commandments.

²³ I was also perfect with him, And I kept myself from mine iniquity.
