] “The human heart is the most deceitful of all things, and desperately wicked. Who really knows how bad it is?
CSB] One who isolates himself pursues selfish desires; he rebels against all sound wisdom.
] If anyone claims, “I am living in the light,” but hates a fellow believer, that person is still living in darkness.
a] The thief’s purpose is to steal and kill and destroy.
c] Don’t be dejected and sad, for the joy of the Lord is your strength!”
-27] And I will give you a new heart, and I will put a new spirit in you. I will take out your stony, stubborn heart and give you a tender, responsive heart. [27] And I will put my Spirit in you so that you will follow my decrees and be careful to obey my regulations.
ESV] Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me.
