8 See, I go forward, but He is not; and backward, but I do not perceive Him;
9 to the left where He is working, but I do not see; He turns to the right, but I do not see.
10 For He knows the way that I take. When He has tried me, I would come forth as gold.
11 My foot has held fast to His steps. I have guarded His way, and did not turn aside.
12 I have not strayed from the command of His lips. I have treasured the words of His mouth more than my daily portion.
13 But He is One, and who does turn Him? And He does whatever His being has desired.
14 For He completes my portion, and many like these are with Him.
