Psalm 32:8-10
King James Version
8 I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with mine eye.
9 Be ye not as the horse, or as the mule, which have no understanding: whose mouth must be held in with bit and bridle, lest they come near unto thee.
10 Many sorrows shall be to the wicked: but he that trusteth in the Lord, mercy shall compass him about.

8 I will (A)instruct you and teach you in the way you should go;
I will (B)counsel you with my eye upon you.
9 (C)Be not like a horse or a mule, without understanding,
which must be curbed with (D)bit and bridle,

but steadfast love surrounds the one who (F)trusts in the Lord.

8 I will (A)instruct you and teach you in the way which you should go;
I will advise you (B)with My eye upon you.
9 Do not be (C)like the horse or like the mule, which have no understanding,
Whose trappings include bit and bridle to hold them in check,
Otherwise they will not come near to you.

But (E)the one who trusts in the Lord, goodness will surround him.
