In Psalms David describes what the law is and equates it with righteousness. He says that the word of God is the law because he calls it the truth which Jesus said is the word of God. The so called Jews at the time of Jesus and even up to His time thought that the law was what the Pharisees taught. Not so. The word of God is the law of God and will never pass away. Paul was taught by the Pharisees and misunderstood the law of God verses the law of the Pharisees. Jesus knew that the law was the word of God that is why we are to abide in His word, to worship by the word and continue in it. To be righteous is to possess the word of God and use it as Jesus taught.
IE;
"Your righteousness is an everlasting righteousness and your law is the truth." Psalms
Jesus said;(Father) "Your word is truth."
"Genuine worshipers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth."
"If you continue in my word you are truly my disciple"
"All those who do good to the resurrection of life"
"The righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father"
"Blessed is he who's way is blameless who walks in the law of the Lord."
"Blessed is he who hears the word of the Lord and keeps it"
David lived under the old covenant. He did have a glimpse of the coming kingdom when he said, "Blessed is the man to whom the Lord does not impute sin." (Psalm 32:2)

Not really. What covenant are you speaking of? Can you show the verses?
Remember the verse ;
"In days to come I shall raise up a righteous shoot to David. As king he shall govern and reign wisely. In his day Judah shall be saved, Israel shall dwell in peace. The name they shall give him is the Lord our righteousness. "
God was saying that this person will be righteous like David. Jesus recognized that the law is the truth and said to abide in it. David did the same.
Notice in the verses below that the law is also considered, the decrees, the precepts, the commandment, the fear of the Lord, and the ordinances of the Lord.
Psalm 19:7-10 The law of the Lord is perfect, reviving the soul; the decrees of the Lord are sure, making wise the simple;
the precepts of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart; the commandment of the Lord is clear, enlightening the eyes;
the fear of the Lord is pure, enduring forever; the ordinances of the Lord are true and righteous altogether.
More to be desired are they than gold, even much fine gold; sweeter also than honey, and drippings of the honeycomb.

The covenant of grace is a farse that Paul taught. Jesus taught to worship in truth, God's word, which is the law of God.
"Genuine worshipers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth....."

Are you saying that Jesus Christ died for nothing?!
