6 And the words of the Lord are flawless,
like silver purified in a crucible,
like gold refined seven times.
7 You, Lord, will keep the needy safe
and will protect us forever from the wicked,
8 who freely strut about
when what is vile is honored by the human race.
Sincerity and truth are rare in this world. There are many deceivers, liars, flatterers, and deceptions. The majority in this world will do what they want to get what they want. If you belong to God, he will protect you from the wicked, as they strut about and are honored by the world’s standards. Remember, the world’s standards of character are vastly marred and putrid. Be joyful to be one of God’s people and to be pleasing to God. That is true sincerity and truth in character. Know that God knows you, loves you, and remembers the good you do.
