reviving the soul.
The decrees of the Lord are trustworthy,
making wise the simple.

bringing joy to the heart.

9 Reverence for the Lord is pure,
lasting forever.
The laws of the Lord are true;
each one is fair.

even the finest gold.
They are sweeter than honey,

a great reward for those who obey them.

Cleanse me from these hidden faults.
