Psalms 119:130

130 Your instructions are a doorway through which light shines. ^{▼▼tn Heb “the doorway of your words gives light.” God’s “words” refer here to the instructions in his law (see vv. 9, 57).}
They give ^{▼▼tn Heb “it [i.e., the doorway] gives.”} insight to the untrained. ^{▼▼tn Or “the [morally] naive,” that is, the one who is young and still in the process of learning right from wrong and distinguishing wisdom from folly. See Pss 19:7; 116:6.}
