|
|

The law of the LORD is perfect, reviving the soul; the decrees of the LORD are sure, making wise the simple;
|
|
8
|
the precepts of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart; the commandment of the LORD is clear, enlightening the eyes;
|
|
9
|
the fear of the LORD is pure, enduring forever; the ordinances of the LORD are true and righteous altogether.

|
|

|
Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable to you, O LORD, my rock and my redeemer.
