¹⁴⁰ Your word is of tested value; and it is dear to your servant.

⁶ The words of the Lord are true words: like silver tested by fire and burned clean seven times.

⁸ The orders of the Lord are right, making glad the heart: the rule of the Lord is holy, giving light to the eyes.

²¹ For these words did not ever come through the impulse of men: but the prophets had them from God, being moved by the Holy Spirit.

² Be full of desire for the true milk of the word, as babies at their mothers' breasts, so that you may go on to salvation;

²² In my heart I take pleasure in the law of God,

¹⁶ But, if I do that which I have no mind to do, I am in agreement with the law that the law is good.

¹² But the law is holy, and its orders are holy, upright, and good.

⁵ Every word of God is tested: he is a breastplate to those who put their faith in him.

¹²⁸ Because of it I keep straight in all things by your orders; and I am a hater of every false way.

³⁰ As for God, his way is completely good; the word of the Lord is tested; he is a breastplate for all those who put their faith in him.
