Psalms 116:9
I will walk before the LORD in the land of the living.
BSB
ASV
I will walk before Jehovah In the land of the living.
KJV
I will walk before the Lord in the land of the living.
I will walk before the Lord in the land of the living. This is the Psalmist's second resolution, to live as in the sight of God in the midst of the sons of men. By a man's walk is understood his way of life: some men live only as in the sight of their fellow men, having regard to human judgment and opinion; but the truly gracious man considers the presence of God, and acts under the influence of his all observing eye. "Thou God seest me" is a far better influence than "My master sees me."

Where several different paths arrive at the same place, that place is listed first: the text keeps returning to it. Every stop shows its own words, and every stop is a page.

We are hard pressed on all sides, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair;
When I am afraid, I put my trust in You.
How great is Your goodness which You have laid up for those who fear You, which You have bestowed before the sons of men on those who take refuge in You!

For Christ also suffered for sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God. He was put to death in the body but made alive in the Spirit,
In His humiliation He was deprived of justice. Who can recount His descendants? For His life was removed from the earth.”
