If I pay attention to all your commands, then I will not be put to shame.

Your commandments are all trustworthy; people persecute me with lies---help me!

And so I follow all your instructions; I hate all wrong ways.

They both lived good lives in God's sight and obeyed fully all the Lord's laws and commands.

And you are my friends if you do what I command you.

"These are all the laws that the LORD your God commanded me to teach you. Obey them in the land that you are about to enter and occupy.

As long as you live, you and your descendants are to honor the LORD your God and obey all his laws that I am giving you, so that you may live in that land a long time.

"If you listen to these commands and obey them faithfully, then the LORD your God will continue to keep his covenant with you and will show you his constant love, as he promised your ancestors.

The laws of the LORD are right, and those who obey them are happy. The commands of the LORD are just and give understanding to the mind.

Reverence for the LORD is good; it will continue forever. The judgments of the LORD are just; they are always fair.

I will repeat aloud all the laws you have given.

I have chosen to be obedient; I have paid attention to your judgments.

I have not neglected your instructions, because you yourself are my teacher.

"Make certain that you do not forget the LORD your God; do not fail to obey any of his laws that I am giving you today.
