2 Blessed are they that observe his testimonies, that seek him with the whole heart;
2O Lord, deliver my soul from wicked lips, and a deceitful tongue.
2O the happiness of those keeping His testimonies, With the whole heart they seek Him.
3 Who also do no unrighteousness: they walk in his ways.
3What shall be given to thee, or what shall be added to thee, to a deceitful tongue?
3Yea, they have not done iniquity, In His ways they have walked.
