      not cleave to me--I will not be implicated in it (compare Ps 1:1-3).

      4. A froward heart--or, "perverse heart" (Ps 18:26). Such a temper I will not indulge, nor even know evil or wickedness.

      5, 6. The slanderers and haughty persons, so mischievous in society, I will disown; but--
