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