5 so that I may know the words that he will answer me and understand what he will say to me.
6 I do not want him to contend with me with much strength, nor to overwhelm me with the bulk of his greatness.
7 Let him show fairness in response to me, and let my judgment reach to victory.
8 If I go to the east, he does not appear; if I go to the west, I will not understand him.
9 If I turn to the left, what can I do? I will not take hold of him. If I turn myself to the right, I will not see him.
10 Truly, he knows my way and has tested me like gold that passes through fire.
11 My feet have been following his footsteps; I have kept to his way and have not strayed from it.
