11. My feet have been following his footsteps; I have kept to his way and have not strayed from it.
12. I have not withdrawn from the commands of his lips, and the words of his mouth I have hidden in my sinews.
13. For he is alone, and no one is able to disturb his intention; and whatever his spirit wills, that he accomplishes.
14. And when he fulfills his will in me, many other similar ones will also be present with him.
15. And, for this reason, I have been troubled at his presence, and, when I consider him, I am approached by fear.
16. God has weakened my heart, and the Almighty has confused me.
17. Yet I have not perished because of the threatening darkness, nor has gloom covered my face.
