119:11 In my heart I store up 1 your words, 2
so I might not sin against you.
119:67 Before I was afflicted I used to stray off, 3
but now I keep your instructions. 4
119:158 I take note of the treacherous and despise them,
because they do not keep your instructions. 5
119:162 I rejoice in your instructions,
like one who finds much plunder. 6
119:172 May my tongue sing about your instructions, 7
for all your commands are just.
