10 If you love the Lord,
    then hate anything that is evil.
The Lord protects the lives of those who serve him.
He keeps them safe from the power of wicked people.

    Good, honest people will be very happy.
12 All you righteous people,
    be happy because of what the Lord has done.
Thank him because he is holy.
