| O how love I thy law! it is my meditation all the day. – Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart. – I sat down under his shadow with great delight, and his fruit was sweet to my taste. – I have esteemed the words of his mouth more than my necessary food. |
| I delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law is within my heart. – My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work. |
| 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. – Be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass. |
