4As for the works of men, by the words of thy lips I have guarded myself from hard ways.
5Direct my steps in thy paths, that my steps slip not.
6I have cried, for thou heardest me, O God: incline thine ear to me, and hearken to my words.
7Shew the marvels of thy mercies, thou that savest them that hope in thee.
Psalms 16
