## lift up your hands that hang down and make your weak knees strong again ##
|
|
|
|
A person who faces challenges in life is like a tired runner whose hands and knees have become weak. AT: "strengthen yourself like a racer strengthens his body when he is determined to finish a race"
|
|
|
|
## make straight paths for your feet ##
|
|
|
|
Obeying God is like walking on a smooth straight path. AT: "do what God wants you to do"
|
|
|
|
## whoever is lame ##
|
|
|
|
AT: "whoever wants to quit"
|
|
|
|
## be led astray ##
|
|
|
|
"follow someone down the wrong path." AT: "will not decide to do things that are easy but do not honor God"
|
|
|
|
## rather be healed ##
|
|
|

"instead become strong" |
