You came down also upon mount Sinai, and spoke with them from heaven, and gave them right ordinances, and true laws, good statutes and commandments:
Your testimonies that you have commanded are righteous and very faithful.
The righteousness of your testimonies is everlasting: give me understanding, and I shall live.
Your word is true from the beginning: and every one of your righteous judgments endures forever.
All your commandments are faithful: they persecute me wrongfully; help me.
I have seen a limit to all perfection: but your commandment is exceedingly broad.
Righteousness and justice are the habitation of your throne: mercy and truth shall go before your face.
Clouds and darkness are round about him: righteousness and justice are the habitation of his throne.
The LORD is well pleased for his righteousness' sake; he will magnify the law, and make it honorable.
I have written to him the great things of my law, but they were counted as a strange thing.
Much every way: chiefly, because unto them were committed the oracles of God.
And to make you high above all nations which he has made, in praise, and in name, and in honor; and that you may be a holy people unto the LORD your God, as he has spoken.
