7 The law of the Lord(A) is perfect,(B)
refreshing the soul.(C)
The statutes of the Lord are trustworthy,(D)
making wise the simple.(E)
8 The precepts of the Lord are right,(F)
giving joy(G) to the heart.
The commands of the Lord are radiant,
giving light to the eyes.(H)
9 The fear of the Lord(I) is pure,
enduring forever.
The decrees of the Lord are firm,

10 They are more precious than gold,(K)

11 By them your servant is warned;
in keeping them there is great reward.
12 But who can discern their own errors?
Forgive my hidden faults.(N)
13 Keep your servant also from willful sins;(O)
may they not rule over me.(P)
Then I will be blameless,(Q)

And in keeping them there is great reward.
12 Who can understand his errors?
(D)Cleanse me from secret faults.
13 Keep back Your servant also from (E)presumptuous sins;
Let them not have (F)dominion over me.
Then I shall be blameless,
And I shall be innocent of [c]great transgression.
14 (G)Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart
Be acceptable in Your sight,
O Lord, my [d]strength and my (H)Redeemer.
