Psalms 119:142
Your righteousness is everlasting and Your law is true.
BSB
ASV
Thy righteousness is an everlasting righteousness, And thy law is truth.
KJV
Thy righteousness is an everlasting righteousness, and thy law is the truth.

Thy righteousness is an everlasting righteousness,.... Or, "is for ever" (z). The rectitude of his nature, his faithfulness in his promises, and his kindness and beneficence to his people; and particularly the righteousness of God revealed in the Gospel; the righteousness of his Son, which he approves and accepts of, and imputes to him that believes.
