from this time forth and forevermore. - For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.
- Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him;
fret not yourself over the one who prospers in his way,
over the man who carries out evil devices! - He who walks blamelessly and does what is right
and speaks truth in his heart;
who does not slander with his tongue
and does no evil to his neighbor,
nor takes up a reproach against his friend. - Do not be deceived: “Bad company ruins good morals.”

and let no iniquity get dominion over me. - Remove vexation from your heart, and put away pain from your body, for youth and the dawn of life are vanity.
