7  ^eThe law of the Lord is perfect,¹

^freviving the soul;

the testimony of the Lord is ^gsure,

^hmaking wise the simple;

8  the precepts of the Lord are right,

rejoicing the heart;

the commandment of the Lord is pure,

enlightening the eyes;

9  the fear of the Lord is clean,

enduring forever;

the rules² of the Lord are true,

and righteous altogether.

10  More to be desired are they than ⁱgold,

even much fine gold;

^jsweeter also than honey

and drippings of the honeycomb.

11  Moreover, by them is your servant warned;

in keeping them there is great reward.

12  Who can discern his errors?

Declare me innocent from ^khidden faults.

13  Keep back your servant also from ^lpresumptuous sins;

let them not have ^mdominion over me!

Then I shall be blameless,

and innocent of great transgression.

14  ⁿLet the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart

be acceptable in your sight,

O Lord, my rock and my redeemer.

23  Search me, O God, and know my heart!

^vTry me and know my thoughts!¹

24  And see if there be any grievous way in me,

and ^wlead me in the way everlasting!²
