Psalms

Psalm 19:7–9

⁷The Law of the LORD is perfect,

reviving the soul;

the testimony of the LORD is trustworthy,

making wise the simple.

⁸The precepts of the LORD are right,

bringing joy to the heart;

the commandments of the LORD are radiant,

giving light to the eyes.

⁹The fear of the LORD is pure,

enduring forever;

the judgments of the LORD are true,

being altogether righteous.
