Psalms 19:11

9 The fear of the LORD is pure, enduring forever; the judgments of the LORD are true, being altogether righteous.

10 They are more precious than gold, than much pure gold; they are sweeter than honey, than honey from the comb.

By them indeed Your servant is warned; in keeping them is great reward.

12 Who can discern his own errors? Cleanse me from my hidden faults.

13 Keep Your servant also from willful sins; may they not rule over me. Then I will be blameless and cleansed of great transgression.

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
