Wilt thou keep the old way Which wicked men have trodden?

`Saying', Surely they that did rise up against us are cut off, And the remnant of them the fire hath consumed.

But as for the mighty man, he had the earth; And the honorable man, he dwelt in it.

Thou hast sent widows away empty, And the arms of the fatherless have been broken.

Thou hast not given water to the weary to drink, And thou hast withholden bread from the hungry.

Therefore snares are round about thee, And sudden fear troubleth thee,

For thou hast taken pledges of thy brother for nought, And stripped the naked of their clothing.

Thick clouds are a covering to him, so that he seeth not; And he walketh on the vault of heaven.

Is not God in the height of heaven? And behold the height of the stars, how high they are!

The righteous see it, and are glad; And the innocent laugh them to scorn,

And the Almighty will be thy treasure, And precious silver unto thee.

Thou shalt make thy prayer unto him, and he will hear thee; And thou shalt pay thy vows.

And lay thou thy' treasure in the dust, And the gold of' Ophir among the stones of the brooks;

He will deliver `even' him that is not innocent: Yea, he shall be delivered through the cleanness of thy hands.

When they cast thee' down, thou shalt say, There is' lifting up; And the humble person he will save.

If thou return to the Almighty, thou shalt be built up, If thou put away unrighteousness far from thy tents.

For then shalt thou delight thyself in the Almighty, And shalt lift up thy face unto God.

Thou shalt also decree a thing, and it shall be established unto thee; And light shall shine upon thy ways.
