I will delight myself in thy statutes: I will not forget thy word.

Let thy tender mercies come unto me, that I may live: for thy law is my delight.

Unless thy law had been my delights, I should then have perished in mine affliction.

Trouble and anguish have taken hold on me: yet thy commandments are my delights.

I rejoice at thy word, as one that findeth great spoil.

Will he delight himself in the Almighty? will he always call upon God?

To whom shall I speak, and give warning, that they may hear? behold, their ear is uncircumcised, and they cannot hearken: behold, the word of the LORD is unto them a reproach; they have no delight in it.

MEM. O how love I thy law! it is my meditation all the day.

I have more understanding than all my teachers: for thy testimonies are my meditation.

Moreover by them is thy servant warned: and in keeping of them there is great reward.

And it shall be, when he sitteth upon the throne of his kingdom, that he shall write him a copy of this law in a book out of that which is before the priests the Levites:

That his heart be not lifted up above his brethren, and that he turn not aside from the commandment, to the right hand, or to the left: to the end that he may prolong his days in his kingdom, he, and his children, in the midst of Israel.

This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.

My son, keep thy father's commandment, and forsake not the law of thy mother:

When thou goest, it shall lead thee; when thou sleepest, it shall keep thee; and when thou awakest, it shall talk with thee.

To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them.

Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.

And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.

That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.
