Therefore I consider all your precepts to be right; I hate every false way.
For I delight in the law of God, in my inner being,
Through your precepts I get understanding; therefore I hate every false way.
The law of the Lord is perfect, reviving the soul; the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple; the precepts of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart; the commandment of the Lord is pure, enlightening the eyes;
Every word of God proves true; he is a shield to those who take refuge in him.
Then I shall not be put to shame, having my eyes fixed on all your commandments.
And what great nation is there, that has statutes and rules so righteous as all this law that I set before you today?
Now if I do what I do not want, I agree with the law, that it is good.
For we know that the law is spiritual, but I am of the flesh, sold under sin.
So the law is holy, and the commandment is holy and righteous and good.
You spurn all who go astray from your statutes, for their cunning is in vain.
He sings before men and says: ‘I sinned and perverted what was right, and it was not repaid to me.
