Adjectives and verbs


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.
