I have sworn, and I confirm it, To keep the judgments of Thy righteousness.

Whoso is keeping his mouth, is keeping his soul, Whoso is opening wide his lips -- ruin to him!

who, having come, and having seen the grace of God, was glad, and was exhorting all with purpose of heart to cleave to the Lord,
