101I’ve kept my feet from every path that sinners take

so that I might obey your word.

102I haven’t turned away from your laws,

because you yourself have taught me.

103Your words are very sweet to my taste!

They are sweeter than honey to me.

104I gain understanding from your rules.

So I hate every path that sinners take.

no wonder I hate every false way of life.

therefore I hate every false way.

Therefore I hate every false way.
