MEM
Oh, how I love your instructions! I think about them all day long.
Your commands make me wiser than my enemies,
for they are my constant guide.
Yes, I have more insight than my teachers,
for I am always thinking of your laws.
I am even wiser than my elders,
for I have kept your commandments.
I have refused to walk on any evil path,
so that I remain obedient to your word.
I haven't turned away from your regulations,
for you have taught me well.
How sweet your words taste to me;
they are sweeter than honey.
Your commandments give me understanding;
no wonder I hate every false way of life.
Yes, I have more insight than my teachers, for I am always thinking of your laws.
Psalm 119:15
I will study your commandments
and reflect on your ways. (see Psalm 119:9-16)
