'Kept' in the Bible

So as Joab kept watch on the city, he stationed Uriah at the place where he knew the best enemy soldiers were.

So David and his men went on their way. But Shimei kept going along the side of the hill opposite him, yelling curses as he threw stones and dirt at them.

Then Absalom happened to come across David's men. Now as Absalom was riding on his mule, it went under the branches of a large oak tree. His head got caught in the oak and he was suspended in midair, while the mule he had been riding kept going.

I was blameless before him; I kept myself from sinning.
