161 Princes have persecuted me without a cause, ♦︎
but my heart stands in awe of your word.
162 I am as glad of your word ♦︎
as one who finds great spoils.
163 As for lies, I hate and abhor them, ♦︎
but your law do I love.
164 Seven times a day do I praise you, ♦︎
because of your righteous judgements.
165 Great peace have they who love your law; ♦︎
nothing shall make them stumble.
166 Lord, I have looked for your salvation ♦︎
and I have fulfilled your commandments.
167 My soul has kept your testimonies ♦︎
and greatly have I loved them.
168 I have kept your commandments and testimonies, ♦︎
for all my ways are before you.

1 O Lord, who may abide in your tent?
Who may dwell on your holy hill?
2 Those who walk blamelessly, and do what is right,
and speak the truth from their heart;
3 who do not slander with their tongue,
and do no evil to their friends,
nor take up a reproach against their neighbours;
4 in whose eyes the wicked are despised,
but who honour those who fear the Lord;
who stand by their oath even to their hurt;
5 who do not lend money at interest,
and do not take a bribe against the innocent.
Those who do these things shall never be moved.
