7 The instructions of the lord are perfect,reviving the soul.The decrees of the lord are trustworthy,making wise the simple.
8 The commandments of the lord are right,bringing joy to the heart.The commands of the lord are clear,giving insight for living.
9 Reverence for the lord is pure,lasting forever.The laws of the lord are true;each one is fair.
10 They are more desirable than gold,even the finest gold.They are sweeter than honey,even honey dripping from the comb.
11 They are a warning to your servant,a great reward for those who obey them.
12 How can I know all the sins lurking in my heart?Cleanse me from these hidden faults.
13 Keep your servant from deliberate sins!Don’t let them control me.Then I will be free of guiltand innocent of great sin.
