In giving them the heritage of the nations.

All His precepts are [j]sure.
8They are upheld forever and ever;
They are performed in [k]truth and uprightness.
9He has sent redemption to His people;
He has [l]ordained His covenant forever;
Holy and [m]awesome is His name.
10The [n]fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom;
A good understanding have all those who [o]do His commandments;
