Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever.
The promise to keep and preserve comes directly after the portrayal of the divine words as pure, likened to silver refined seven times. The ones to be kept and preserved are those same pure words. They are guarded by the Lord amid a wicked present generation, and that guarding endures forever. Because those words endure, those who belong to Christ give heed to them as they watch and pray against temptation.
