8 I will give you understanding, and I will instruct you in this way, in which you will walk. I will fix my eyes upon you.
9 Do not become like the horse and the mule, which have no understanding. Their jaws are constrained with bit and bridle, so as not to draw near to you.
10 Many are the scourges of the sinner, but mercy will surround him that hopes in the Lord.
11 Rejoice in the Lord and exult, you just ones, and glory, all you upright of heart.
