After Psalm 19: 7-11
It’s an assembly,
adjectives and verbs
joined together
to describe, succinctly,
characteristics
of the indescribable.
The law: perfect.
The law: revives the soul.
The testimony: trustworthy.
The testimony: makes wise.
The precepts: right.
The precepts: rejoice the heart.
The commandments: pure.
The commandments: open the eyes.
The fear: clean,
The fear: endures forever.
The rules: true.
The rules: righteous.
All off the above:
more desirable than gold,
sweeter than honey,
serving as a warning,
for to keep them
is the great reward.
