Proved

The LORD trieth the righteous: but the wicked and him that loveth violence his soul hateth.

Examine me, O LORD, and prove 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. O LORD, thou hast searched me, and known me.

But he knoweth the way that I take: when he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold.

And I will bring the third part through 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 hear them: I will say, It is my people; and they shall say, The LORD is my God.

But who may abide the day of his coming? and who shall stand when he appeareth? for he is like a refiner's fire, and like fuller's soap.

For I know nothing against myself; yet am I not hereby justified: but he that judgeth me is the Lord.

That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though tried with fire, might be found to praise, and honor, and glory, at the appearing of Jesus Christ:

Shalt

If I have rewarded evil to him that was at peace with me; (yes, I have delivered him that without cause is my enemy:)

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

Behold, this day thy eyes have seen how the LORD hath delivered thee to-day into my hand in the cave; and some bade me kill thee: but my eye spared thee; and I said, I will not put forth my hand against my lord; for he is the LORD'S anointed.

The LORD forbid that I should stretch forth my hand against the LORD'S anointed: but, I pray thee, take thou now the spear that is at his bolster, and the cruse of water, and let us go.

For our rejoicing is this, the testimony of our conscience, that in simplicity and godly sincerity, not with fleshly wisdom, but by the grace of God, we have had our manner of life in the world, and more abundantly toward you.

I am

To the chief Musician, even 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 bridle, while the wicked is before me.

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

He that keepeth his mouth keepeth his life: but he that openeth wide his lips shall have destruction.

Who, when he came, and had seen the grace of God, was glad, and exhorted them all that with purpose of heart they would cleave to the Lord.

For in many things we all offend. If any man offendeth not in word, the same is a perfect man, able also to bridle the whole body.
