For the Lord knows the way of the righteous,
But the way of the wicked will perish.

Do homage to the Son, that He not become angry, and you perish in the way,
For His wrath may soon be kindled.
How blessed are all who take refuge in Him!

O Lord, lead me in Your righteousness because of my foes;
Make Your way straight before me.

His ways prosper at all times;
Your judgments are on high, out of his sight;
As for all his adversaries, he snorts at them.

For I have kept the ways of the Lord,
And have not wickedly departed from my God.

As for God, His way is blameless;
The word of the Lord is tried;
He is a shield to all who take refuge in Him.

The God who girds me with strength
And makes my way blameless?

Make me know Your ways, O Lord;
Teach me Your paths.

Good and upright is the Lord;
Therefore He instructs sinners in the way.

He leads the humble in justice,
And He teaches the humble His way.

Who is the man who fears the Lord?
He will instruct him in the way he should choose.

Teach me Your way, O Lord,
And lead me in a level path
Because of my foes.

I will instruct you and teach you in the way which you should go;
I will counsel you with My eye upon you.

Let their way be dark and slippery,
With the angel of the Lord pursuing them.

Commit your way to the Lord,
Trust also in Him, and He will do it.

Rest in the Lord and wait patiently for Him;
Do not fret because of him who prospers in his way,
Because of the man who carries out wicked schemes.

The steps of a man are established by the Lord,
And He delights in his way.

Wait for the Lord and keep His way,
And He will exalt you to inherit the land;
When the wicked are cut off, you will see it.

For the choir director, for Jeduthun. A Psalm of David.
I said, “I will guard my ways
That I may not sin with my tongue;
I will guard my mouth as with a muzzle
While the wicked are in my presence.”

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

This is the way of those who are foolish,
And of those after them who approve their words. Selah.

“He who offers a sacrifice of thanksgiving honors Me;
And to him who orders his way aright
I shall show the salvation of God.”

Then I will teach transgressors Your ways,
And sinners will be converted to You.

That Your way may be known on the earth,
Your salvation among all nations.

Your way, O God, is holy;
What god is great like our God?

Your way was in the sea
And Your paths in the mighty waters,
And Your footprints may not be known.

Why have You broken down its hedges,
So that all who pass that way pick its fruit?

“Oh that My people would listen to Me,
That Israel would walk in My ways!

Righteousness will go before Him
And will make His footsteps into a way.

Teach me Your way, O Lord;
I will walk in Your truth;
Unite my heart to fear Your name.

All who pass along the way plunder him;
He has become a reproach to his neighbors.

For He will give His angels charge concerning you,
To guard you in all your ways.

“For forty years I loathed that generation,
And said they are a people who err in their heart,
And they do not know My ways.

I will give heed to the blameless way.
When will You come to me?
I will walk within my house in the integrity of my heart.

My eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me;
He who walks in a blameless way is the one who will minister to me.

He has weakened my strength in the way;
He has shortened my days.

He made known His ways to Moses,
His acts to the sons of Israel.

They wandered in the wilderness in a desert region;
They did not find a way to an inhabited city.

He led them also by a straight way,
To go to an inhabited city.

Fools, because of their rebellious way,
And because of their iniquities, were afflicted.

Aleph.
How blessed are those whose way is blameless,
Who walk in the law of the Lord.

They also do no unrighteousness;
They walk in His ways.

Oh that my ways may be established
To keep Your statutes!

Beth.
How can a young man keep his way pure?
By keeping it according to Your word.

I have rejoiced in the way of Your testimonies,
As much as in all riches.

I will meditate on Your precepts
And regard Your ways.

I have told of my ways, and You have answered me;
Teach me Your statutes.

Make me understand the way of Your precepts,
So I will meditate on Your wonders.

Remove the false way from me,
And graciously grant me Your law.

I have chosen the faithful way;
I have placed Your ordinances before me.

I shall run the way of Your commandments,
For You will enlarge my heart.

He.
Teach me, O Lord, the way of Your statutes,
And I shall observe it to the end.

Turn away my eyes from looking at vanity,
And revive me in Your ways.

I considered my ways
And turned my feet to Your testimonies.

I have restrained my feet from every evil way,
That I may keep Your word.

From Your precepts I get understanding;
Therefore I hate every false way.

Therefore I esteem right all Your precepts concerning everything,
I hate every false way.

I keep Your precepts and Your testimonies,
For all my ways are before You.

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.

A Song of Ascents.
How blessed is everyone who fears the Lord,
Who walks in His ways.

And they will sing of the ways of the Lord,
For great is the glory of the Lord.

You scrutinize my path and my lying down,
And are intimately acquainted with all my ways.

And see if there be any hurtful way in me,
And lead me in the everlasting way.

When my spirit was overwhelmed within me,
You knew my path.
In the way where I walk
They have hidden a trap for me.

Let me hear Your lovingkindness in the morning;
For I trust in You;
Teach me the way in which I should walk;
For to You I lift up my soul.

The Lord is righteous in all His ways
And kind in all His deeds.

The Lord protects the strangers;
He supports the fatherless and the widow,
But He thwarts the way of the wicked.
