9 The feare of the Lord is cleane, enduring for euer: the Iudgements of the Lord are true, and righteous altogether.9

10 More to bee desired are they then gold, yea, then much fine gold: sweeter also then hony, and the hony combe.10

11 Moreouer by them is thy seruant warned: and in keeping of them there is great reward.

12 Who can vnderstand his errours? cleanse thou me from secret faults.

13 Keepe back thy seruant also from presumptuous sinnes, let them not haue dominion ouer me: then shall I be vpright, and I shalbe innocent from the great transgression.13

14 Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, bee acceptable in thy sight, O Lord my strength, and my redeemer.14
