“My foot has held fast to His path;
I have kept His way and not turned aside.

Our heart has not turned back,
And our steps have not deviated from Your way,

My steps have held fast to Your paths.
My feet have not slipped.

But as for those who turn aside to their crooked ways,
The Lord will lead them away with the doers of iniquity.
Peace be upon Israel.

Now, here is the king walking before you, but I am old and gray, and behold my sons are with you. And I have walked before you from my youth even to this day.

“Nevertheless the righteous will hold to his way,
And he who has clean hands will grow stronger and stronger.

The Lord has rewarded me according to my righteousness;
According to the cleanness of my hands He has recompensed me.

The words of his mouth are wickedness and deceit;
He has ceased to be wise and to do good.

And those who have turned back from following the Lord,
And those who have not sought the Lord or inquired of Him.”

Those on the rocky soil are those who, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no firm root; they believe for a while, and in time of temptation fall away.

And when they had come to him, he said to them,“You yourselves know, from the first day that I set foot in Asia, how I was with you the whole time,

I have coveted no one’s silver or gold or clothes.

to those who by perseverance in doing good seek for glory and honor and immortality, eternal life;

For our proud confidence is this: the testimony of our conscience, that in holiness and godly sincerity, not in fleshly wisdom but in the grace of God, we have conducted ourselves in the world, and especially toward you.

You are witnesses, and so is God, how devoutly and uprightly and blamelessly we behaved toward you believers;

For if, after they have escaped the defilements of the world by the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in them and are overcome, the last state has become worse for them than the first.
