8 He guards the paths of justice,
And
apreserves the way of His saints.
9 Then you will understand righteousness and justice,
Equity
and every good path.
10 When wisdom enters your heart,
And knowledge is pleasant to your soul,
11 Discretion will preserve you;
aUnderstanding will keep you,
12 To deliver you from the way of evil,
From the man who speaks perverse things,
13 From those who leave the paths of uprightness
To
awalk in the ways of darkness;
14 aWho rejoice in doing evil,
And delight in the perversity of the wicked;
