I watched this movie a few months ago and I made the same commitment that these gents made an oath to.
I have had to make a decision today that tested my vow! Believe me it is not easy....being tested this way is difficult but worthwhile!
| 1 | Truly God is good to Israel,
| ||||
| 2 | But as for me, my feet were almost gone;
| ||||
| 3 | For I was envious at the foolish,
| ||||
| 4 | For there are no bands in their death:
| ||||
| 5 | They are not in trouble as other men;
| ||||
| 6 | Therefore pride compasseth them about as a chain;
| ||||
| 7 | Their eyes stand out with fatness:
| ||||
| 8 | They are corrupt, and speak wickedly concerning oppression:
| ||||
| 9 | They set their mouth against the heavens,
| ||||
| 10 | Therefore his people return hither:
| ||||
| 11 | And they say, How doth God know?
| ||||
| 12 | Behold, these are the ungodly,
| ||||
| 13 | Verily I have cleansed my heart in vain,
| ||||
| 14 | For all the day long have I been plagued,
| ||||
| 15 | If I say, I will speak thus;
| ||||
| 16 | When I thought to know this,
| ||||
| 17 | until I went into the sanctuary of God;
| ||||
| 18 | Surely thou didst set them in slippery places:
| ||||
| 19 | How are they brought into desolation, as in a moment!
| ||||
| 20 | As a dream when one awaketh;
| ||||
| 21 | Thus my heart was grieved,
| ||||
| 22 | So foolish was I, and ignorant:
| ||||
| 23 | Nevertheless I am continually with thee:
| ||||
| 24 | Thou shalt guide me with thy counsel,
| ||||
| 25 | Whom have I in heaven but thee?
| ||||
| 26 | My flesh and my heart faileth:
| ||||
| 27 | For, lo, they that are far from thee shall perish:
| ||||
| 28 | But it is good for me to draw near to God:
