Proved

Jehovah trieth the righteous one; but the wicked, and him that loveth violence, his soul hateth.

Prove me, Jehovah, and test me; try my reins and my heart:

For thou, O God, hast proved us: thou hast tried us, as silver is tried.

{To the chief Musician. A Psalm of David.} Jehovah, thou hast searched me, and known me.

But he knoweth the way that I take; he trieth me, I shall come forth as gold.

And I will bring the third part into the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will try them as gold is tried. They shall call on my name, and I will answer them: I will say, It is my people; and they shall say, Jehovah is my God.

But who shall endure the day of his coming? and who shall stand when he appeareth? For he will be like a refiner's fire, and like fullers' lye.

For I am conscious of nothing in myself; but I am not justified by this: but he that examines me is the Lord.

that the proving of your faith, much more precious than of gold which perishes, though it be proved by fire, be found to praise and glory and honour in the revelation of Jesus Christ:

Shalt

If I have rewarded evil to him that was at peace with me; (indeed I have freed him that without cause oppressed me;)

All this is come upon us; yet have we not forgotten thee, neither have we dealt falsely against thy covenant:

Behold, this day thine eyes have seen how that Jehovah had given thee this day into my hand in the cave; and they bade me kill thee; but mine eye spared thee; and I said, I will not put forth my hand against my lord, for he is the anointed of Jehovah.

Jehovah forbid that I should stretch forth my hand against Jehovah's anointed! But now take, I pray thee, the spear that is at his head, and the cruse of water, and let us go.

For our boasting is this, the testimony of our conscience, that in simplicity and sincerity before God, (not in fleshly wisdom but in God's grace,) we have had our conversation in the world, and more abundantly towards you.

I am

{To the chief Musician, to Jeduthun. A Psalm of David.} I said, I will take heed to my ways, that I sin not with my tongue: I will keep my mouth with a muzzle, while the wicked is before me.

I have sworn, and I will perform it, that I will keep thy righteous judgments.

He that guardeth his mouth keepeth his soul; destruction shall be to him that openeth wide his lips.

who, having arrived and seeing the grace of God, rejoiced, and exhorted all with purpose of heart to abide with the Lord;

For we all often offend. If any one offend not in word, he is a perfect man, able to bridle the whole body too.
