My lips will tell about all the laws you have spoken.
I will not die, but live, and I will tell what the Lord has done.
Let me sing about your promises, because all your commands are fair.
I will discuss your rules with kings and will not be ashamed.
I remember all his laws and have not broken his rules.
Children, come and listen to me. I will teach you to worship the Lord.
Good people speak with wisdom, and they say what is fair.
Be careful to use good sense, and watch what you say.
I tell you these things in the dark, but I want you to tell them in the light. What you hear whispered in your ear you should shout from the housetops.
You snakes! You are evil people, so how can you say anything good? The mouth speaks the things that are in the heart.
We cannot keep quiet. We must speak about what we have seen and heard.”
Always remember these commands I give you today.
Teach them to your children, and talk about them when you sit at home and walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up.
