Rh  Yea, they do no unrighteousness; they walk in his ways.
 * Thou hast commanded us thy precepts, that we should observe them diligently.

Oh that my ways were established to observe thy statutes!
 * Then shall I not be put to shame.

Wherewith shall a young man cleanse his way?
 * By taking heed thereto according to thy word.

With my whole heart have I sought thee:
 * Oh let me not wander from thy commandments.

Thy word have I laid up in my heart, that I might not sin against thee.
 * Blessed art thou, O Lord: Teach me thy statutes.

With my lips have I declared all the ordinances of thy mouth.
 * I have rejoiced in the way of thy testimonies, as much as in all riches.

I will meditate on thy precepts, and have respect unto thy ways.
 * I will delight myself in thy statutes: I will not forget thy word.

Ezekiel xviii I WILL judge you; every one according to his ways, saith the Lord.
 * Return ye, and turn yourselves from all your transgressions; so iniquity shall not be your ruin.

Cast away from you all your transgressions, wherein ye have transgressed;
 * And make you a new heart and a new spirit: for why will ye die;

For I have no pleasure in the death of him that dieth, saith the Lord,
 * Wherefore turn yourselves, and live.

 * He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds.
