Summary
First thing, justice, second thing, chessed, goodness in action, and the third thing that God loves. So you've got the Hebrew word, and then you've got all the times that that word, you'll see the Hebrew translated English, all the time that word appears and scripts your same thing with the Greek, got the Greek word, then you've got the English equivalent, and then all the times that are the curve. To love kindness, and here comes the third, and to walk humbly with your God, to walk humbly with your God. That word, they're translated humbly, that particular word, it occurs only two times in the entire Bible, that particular word. And so like with all of the words in scripture, there is how is it used in scripture, how is it used outside of the scripture during that period of time, and it's exactly what the linguistic scholars would look at, and there can be a struggle with how to translate that particular word, here it's translated humbly, but what's underneath it, how you can also translate it, is attentive, thoughtful, with understanding. What comes naturally to us is not this reliant walk with the Lord humbly, but what comes naturally to us is that we march into self-reliance.
