9  He leads the humble in what is right,

and teaches the humble his way.

10  All the paths of the Lord are steadfast love and faithfulness,

for those who ^fkeep his covenant and his testimonies.

11  ^gFor your name’s sake, O Lord,

^hpardon my guilt, for it is great.

12  Who is the man who fears the Lord?

Him will he instruct in the way that he should choose.

13  His soul shall abide in well-being,

and ⁱhis offspring shall inherit the land.

14  The ^jfriendship¹ of the Lord is for those who fear him,

and he makes known to them his covenant.

15  My eyes are ever toward the Lord,

for ^khe will pluck my feet out of the net.
