O when wilt thou come unto me? I will walk within my house with a perfect heart.
[3]I wyll neuer set before myne eyes any deuillishe thyng: I wyll detest to do the worke of transgressours, it shall take no holde of me [3]I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; it shall not cleave to me.
[4]A frowarde heart shall depart from me: I wyll not once knowe [any] euyll [4]A froward heart shall depart from me: I will not know a wicked person.
