Isaiah 26:7
Isaiah 26:7 King James Version (KJV)
The way of the just is uprightness: thou, most upright, dost weigh the path of the just.
Isaiah 26:7 Amplified Bible (AMP)
¶The way of the righteous [those in right-standing with God—living in moral and spiritual integrity] is smooth and level; O Upright One, make a level path for the just and righteous.
Isaiah 26:7-10 The Message (MSG)
The path of right-living people is level. The Leveler evens the road for the right-living. We’re in no hurry, GOD. We’re content to linger in the path sign-posted with your decisions. Who you are and what you’ve done are all we’ll ever want. Through the night my soul longs for you. Deep from within me my spirit reaches out to you. When your decisions are on public display, everyone learns how to live right. If the wicked are shown grace, they don’t seem to get it. In the land of right living, they persist in wrong living, blind to the splendor of GOD.

The path of life is level for those who are right with God; LORD, you make the way of life smooth for those people.

The path of the righteous is level; you, the Upright One, make the way of the righteous smooth.
