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.
