I will lead a full and happy life, because I’ve tried to obey your rules.

我要自由而行，因我素来考究你的训词。

行於寬廣之區、因我究爾訓詞兮、

我詳究爾道、使我所行之路、綽然有餘兮、

我得行於寛廣之地、因我平日尋求主之命令、

優游聖道。恢恢綽綽。

I will walk about in freedom, for I have sought out your precepts.

and I shall walk in a wide place, for I have sought your precepts.

I will walk in freedom, for I have devoted myself to your commandments.

I will walk freely in an open place because I study your precepts.

And I will walk at liberty, For I seek Your precepts.

And I will walk at liberty, For I seek Your precepts.

And I shall walk at liberty; For I have sought thy precepts.

I will walk freely in an open place because I seek Your precepts.

And I will walk at liberty: for I seek thy precepts.

I will be secure, for I seek your precepts.

I will walk in liberty, for I have sought your precepts.

Save me, because I belong to you. I’ve tried to obey your rules.

When you walk, nothing will slow you down. When you run, you won’t trip and fall.

But suppose someone takes a good look at the perfect law that gives freedom. And they keep looking at it. Suppose they don’t forget what they’ve heard, but they do what the law says. Then this person will be blessed in what they do.

Teach me how to live as you have promised. Don’t let any sin be my master.

Even while Jesus was speaking, many people believed in him.Jesus spoke to the Jews who had believed him.“ If you obey my teaching,” he said,“ you are really my disciples.Then you will know the truth. And the truth will set you free.”They answered him,“ We are Abraham’s children. We have never been slaves of anyone. So how can you say that we will be set free?”Jesus replied,“ What I’m about to tell you is true. Everyone who sins is a slave of sin.A slave has no lasting place in the family. But a son belongs to the family forever.So if the Son of Man sets you free, you will really be free.

They promise to give freedom to these new believers. But they themselves are slaves to sinful living. That’s because“ people are slaves to anything that controls them.”

You study the Scriptures carefully. You study them because you think they will give you eternal life. The Scriptures you study are a witness about me.

I’m filled with joy because of your promise. It’s like finding a great fortune.

My eyes stay open all night long. I spend my time thinking about your promises.

Look for it as you would look for silver. Search for it as you would search for hidden treasure.Then you will understand how to have respect for the Lord. You will find out how to know God.

Speak and act like people who are going to be judged by the law that gives freedom.

A person who isn’t friendly looks out only for themselves. They oppose all good sense by starting fights.

I’m a stranger on earth. Don’t hide your commands from me.

I decided to study things carefully. I used my wisdom to check everything out. I looked into everything that is done on earth. What a heavy load God has put on human beings!

“ The Spirit of the Lord is on me. He has anointed me to announce the good news to poor people. He has sent me to announce freedom for prisoners. He has sent me so that the blind will see again. He wants me to set free those who are treated badly.

So don’t be foolish. Instead, understand what the Lord wants.

It was good for me to suffer. That’s what helped me to understand your orders.
