The law of the Lord is perfect,
    reviving the soul;
the decrees of the Lord are sure,
    making wise the simple;(A)
the precepts of the Lord are right,
    rejoicing the heart;
the commandment of the Lord is clear,
    enlightening the eyes;(B)
the fear of the Lord is pure,
    enduring forever;
the ordinances of the Lord are true
    and righteous altogether.(C)
10 More to be desired are they than gold,

sweeter also than honey

    in keeping them there is great reward.(E)
12 But who can detect one’s own errors?
    Clear me from hidden faults.(F)
13 Keep back your servant also from the insolent;[a]
    do not let them have dominion over me.
Then I shall be blameless
    and innocent of great transgression.(G)

    be acceptable to you,
    O Lord, my rock and my redeemer.(H)
