| “I rejoice at Thy word, as one that findeth great spoil,” and “Thy testimonies have I taken as a heritage forever: for they are the rejoicing of my heart.” “I have rejoiced in the way of Thy testimonies, as much as in all riches.” “Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path,” “for the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life.” “Acquaint now thyself with Him, and be at peace: thereby good shall come unto thee.” “Neither have I gone back from the commandment of His lips; I have esteemed the words of His mouth more than my necessary food.” So “I will delight myself in Thy commandments, which I have loved. My hands also will I lift up unto Thy commandments, which I have loved; and I will meditate in Thy statutes.” “The statutes of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of the Lord is pure, enlightening the eyes. … More to be desired are they than gold, yea, than much fine gold: sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb. … By them is Thy servant warned: and in keeping of them there is great reward.” |
