29:12 for I rescued the poor who cried out for help,
and the orphan who 1 had no one to assist him;
29:13 the blessing of the dying man descended on me, 2
and I made the widow’s heart rejoice; 3
29:14 I put on righteousness and it clothed me, 4
my just dealing 5 was like a robe and a turban;
29:15 I was eyes for the blind
and feet for the lame;
29:16 I was a father 6 to the needy,
and I investigated the case of the person I did not know;
29:17 I broke the fangs 7 of the wicked,
and made him drop 8 his prey from his teeth.
40:8 I want to do what pleases you, 9 my God.
Your law dominates my thoughts.” 10
112:1 Praise the Lord!
How blessed is the one 12 who obeys 13 the Lord,
who takes great delight in keeping his commands. 14
119:16 I find delight 15 in your statutes;
I do not forget your instructions. 16
119:92 If I had not found encouragement in your law, 17
I would have died in my sorrow. 18
3:12 I have concluded 19 that there is nothing better for people 20
than 21 to be happy and to enjoy
themselves 22 as long as they live,
64:5 You assist 23 those who delight in doing what is right, 24
who observe your commandments. 25
Look, you were angry because we violated them continually.
How then can we be saved? 26
