Unless your law [had been] my delight, then I would have perished in my misery. I will not ever forget your precepts, for by them you revive me. I [am] yours.

Commandment » Not adding to or diminishing from the commandments of the lord
You must not add to the word that I [am] commanding you, and you shall not take away from it [in order] to keep the commands of Yahweh your God that I [am] commanding you [to observe].
You must not do so toward Yahweh your God, because of every detestable thing they have done for their gods Yahweh hates, for even their sons and their daughters they would burn in the fire to their gods. All of the things that I [am] commanding you, {you must diligently observe}; you shall not add to it, and you shall not take away from it."
Every word of God [is] flawless; he [is] a shield for him who takes refuge in him. Do not add to his words lest he rebuke you and you be found a liar.
