The works of his hands are faithful and just; all his precepts are trustworthy; they are established forever and ever, to be performed with faithfulness and uprightness. He sent redemption to his people; he has commanded his covenant forever. Holy and awesome is his name! The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom; all those who practice it have a good understanding. His praise endures forever!
There is another interesting connection here between the phrases "His precepts are trustworthy" and "to be performed with faithfulness and uprightness." That connection is the implication of obedience. Or might it be phrased that since His precepts are trustworthy, we are to perform them obediently.
Discipleship is obedience driven!
