I always do what God commands; I follow his will, not my own desires.
May he be pleased with my song, for my gladness comes from him.
How sweet is the taste of your instructions— sweeter even than honey!
Your commandments are my eternal possession; they are the joy of my heart.
How happy I am because of your promises— as happy as someone who finds rich treasure.
How I love your law! I think about it all day long.
They are more desirable than the finest gold; they are sweeter than the purest honey.
They can make an inexperienced person clever and teach young people how to be resourceful.
Wisdom is in every thought of intelligent people; fools know nothing about wisdom.
and you will be glad if you remember them and can quote them.
Do not abandon wisdom, and she will protect you; love her, and she will keep you safe.
You spoke to me, and I listened to every word. I belong to you, Lord God Almighty, and so your words filled my heart with joy and happiness.
Christ's message in all its richness must live in your hearts. Teach and instruct one another with all wisdom. Sing psalms, hymns, and sacred songs; sing to God with thanksgiving in your hearts.
