8 I will instruct thee and teach thee the way in which thou shalt go; I will counsel [thee] with mine eye upon thee.

9 Be ye not as a horse, as a mule, which have no understanding: whose trappings must be bit and bridle, for restraint, or they will not come unto thee.

9Be ye not as the horse, or as the mule, which have no understanding: whose mouth must be held in with bit and bridle, lest they come near unto thee.

10 Many sorrows hath the wicked; but he that confideth in Jehovah, loving-kindness shall encompass him.

10Many sorrows shall be to the wicked: but he that trusteth in the Lord, mercy shall compass him about.

11 Rejoice in Jehovah, and be glad, ye righteous; and shout for joy, all ye upright in heart.
