Thou camest down also upon mount Si´nai, and spakest with them from heaven, and gavest them right judgments, and true laws, good statutes and commandments:
Thy testimonies that thou hast commanded are righteous and very faithful.
The righteousness of thy testimonies is everlasting: give me understanding, and I shall live.
Thy word is true from the beginning: and every one of thy righteous judgments endureth for ever.
All thy commandments are faithful: they persecute me wrongfully; help thou me.
I have seen an end of all perfection: but thy commandment is exceeding broad.
Justice and judgment are the habitation of thy throne: mercy and truth shall go before thy face.
Clouds and darkness are round about him: righteousness and judgment 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 that unto them were committed the oracles of God.
and to make thee high above all nations which he hath made, in praise, and in name, and in honor; and that thou mayest be a holy people unto the Lord thy God, as he hath spoken.
