I have chosen to be faithful; I have determined to live by your regulations. | I have chosen the way of faithfulness; I set your rules before me. |
As I learn your righteous regulations, I will thank you by living as I should! | I will praise you with an upright heart, when I learn your righteous rules. |
|
The very essence of your words is truth; all your just regulations will stand forever. | The sum of your word is truth, and every one of your righteous rules endures forever. |
But we have sinned and done wrong. We have rebelled against you and scorned your commands and regulations. | We have sinned and done wrong and acted wickedly and rebelled, turning aside from your commandments and rules. |
And I will put my Spirit in you so that you will follow my decrees and be careful to obey my regulations. | And I will put my Spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes and be careful to obey my rules. |
Observe the requirements of the Lord your God, and follow all his ways. Keep the decrees, commands, regulations, and laws written in the Law of Moses so that you will be successful in all you do and wherever you go. | And keep the charge of the Lord your God, walking in his ways and keeping his statutes, his commandments, his rules, and his testimonies, as it is written in the Law of Moses, that you may prosper in all that you do and wherever you turn. |
‘I am the Lord your God,’ I told them. ‘Follow my decrees, pay attention to my regulations, and keep my Sabbath days holy, for they are a sign to remind you that I am the Lord your God.’ | I am the Lord your God; walk in my statutes, and be careful to obey my rules, and keep my Sabbaths holy that they may be a sign between me and you, that you may know that I am the Lord your God. |
For I command you this day to love the Lord your God and to keep his commands, decrees, and regulations by walking in his ways. If you do this, you will live and multiply, and the Lord your God will bless you and the land you are about to enter and occupy. | If you obey the commandments of the Lord your God that I command you today, by loving the Lord your God, by walking in his ways, and by keeping his commandments and his statutes and his rules, then you shall live and multiply, and the Lord your God will bless you in the land that you are entering to take possession of it. |
