Rejoicing

To do thine acceptance, O my God, I delighted; and thy law in the midst of my bowels.

In the way of thy testimonies I rejoiced as by all riches.

And there was the place which Jehovah your God shall choose in it to cause his name to dwell there; there shall ye bring all which I command you: your burnt-offerings and your sacrifices, your tenths, and the offerings of your hands, and all the choice of your vows which ye shall vow to Jehovah.

And rejoice before Jehovah thy God, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, and thy servant, and thy maid, and the Levite that is in thy gates, and the stranger, and the orphan and the widow, which are in the midst of thee in the place which Jehovah thy God shall choose to cause his name to dwell there.

And all the people will go to eat and to drink, and to send portions, and to make great gladness, for they understood the words that were made known to them.

Thou mettest him rejoicing and doing justice, they shall remember thee in thy ways: behold, thou wert angry; and we shall sin in them of old, and we shall be saved.

Thy words were found, and eating them; and thy word will be to me for the gladness and for the joy of my heart: for thy name was called upon me, Jehovah the God of armies.

Is pure

The sayings of Jehovah are pure sayings: silver tried in the crucible of the earth, purified seven times.

Behold, I desired for thy charges: make me alive in thy justice.

All the word of God is purified: he a shield to those trusting in him.

Therefore truly the law holy, and the command holy, and just, and good.

Enlightening

How long shall I put counsels in my soul, grief in my heart the day? how long shall mine enemy rise up against me?

Above mine enemies thou wilt make me wise from thy commands, for It is forever to me.

For Jehovah will give wisdom: from his mouth knowledge and understanding.

For the command is a lamp, and the law a light; and the way of life the reproof of instruction:

Behold, thou art named a Jew, and restest upon the law, and boastest thyself in God,

Therefore from the works of the law shall no flesh be justified before him: for by the law the knowledge of sin.

What then shall we say? The law sin? It may not be. But I knew not sin except by the law: for I knew not lust, if the law said not, Thou shalt not eagerly desire.

For I through the law died to the law, that. I might live to God.

For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it has been written, Cursed every one who remains not in all written in the book of the law to do them.
