You has tested my heart; You have visited [me] in the night; You have tried me as with fire, and unrighteousness has not been found in me; [I am purposed] that my mouth shall not speak [amiss.]

Direct my steps in Your paths, that my steps slip not.

For the end, A Song of David, to Jeduthun. I said, I will take heed to my ways, that I sin not with my tongue; I set a guard on my mouth, while the sinner stood in my presence.

Let my mouth be filled with praise, that I may hymn Your glory, [and] Your majesty all the day.

Trust not in friends, and confide not in guides: beware of your wife, so as not to commit anything to her.

If anyone among you thinks he is religious, and does not bridle his tongue but deceiving his heart, the religion of this [man] is useless.

For we all stumble in many [ways]. If anyone does not stumble in word, he is a mature man, able also to bridle the whole body.
