1
Love righteousness, ye that be judges of the earth: think of the Lord with a good (heart,) and in simplicity of heart seek him.
2
For he will be found of them that tempt him not; and sheweth himself unto such as do not distrust him.
3
For froward thoughts separate from God: and his power, when it is tried, reproveth the unwise.
4
For into a malicious soul wisdom shall not enter; nor dwell in the body that is subject unto sin.
5
For the holy spirit of discipline will flee deceit, and remove from thoughts that are without understanding, and will not abide when unrighteousness cometh in.
6
For wisdom is a loving spirit; and will not acquit a blasphemer of his words: for God is witness of his reins, and a true beholder of his heart, and a hearer of his tongue.
7
For the Spirit of the Lord filleth the world: and that which containeth all things hath knowledge of the voice.
