Footnotes

  1. Isaiah 26:3 Lit peace, peace, a Hebrew idiom of emphasis.
  2. Isaiah 26:3 The Hebrew word for inclination became a technical term in Jewish tradition, and the rabbis frequently referred to the “evil inclination” much in the same sense as the sin nature.

He stores away sound wisdom for the righteous [those who are in right standing with Him];
He is a shield to those who walk in integrity [those of honorable character and moral courage],

He guards the paths of justice;
And He preserves the way of His saints (believers).(A)

Then you will understand righteousness and justice [in every circumstance]
And integrity and every good path.
