Psalms 119:129
Wonderful are Your testimonies; therefore I obey them.
BSB
ASV
Thy testimonies are wonderful; Therefore doth my soul keep them.
KJV
Thy testimonies are wonderful: therefore doth my soul keep them.
פ, PE.--The Seventeenth Part. PE. Thy testimonies are wonderful,.... The Scriptures, which testify of God, his mind and will, are wonderful both with respect to the author of them, the things contained in them, and the use and advantage of them.
"Thy commands are wonderful." Full of wonderful revelations, commands and promises. Wonderful in their nature, as being free from all error, and bearing within themselves overwhelming self evidence of their truth; wonderful in their effects as instructing, elevating, strengthening, and comforting the soul. Jesus the eternal Word is called Wonderful, and all the uttered words of God are wonderful in their degree. Those who know them best wonder at them most.
Rare words are the text's own signal of a deliberate thread: the fewer the occurrences, the more the places it appears belong together.

God is not a man, that He should lie, or a son of man, that He should change His mind. Does He speak and not act? Does He promise and not fulfill?
