  1. 1I said, I will take heed to my ways, That I sin not with my tongue: I will keep my mouth with a bridle, While the wicked is before me.
  2. 2I was dumb with silence, I held my peace, even from good; And my sorrow was stirred.
  3. 3My heart was hot within me; While I was musing the fire burned; Then spake I with my tongue:
