God, you have taught me since I was a young boy. And to this day I have told people about the wonderful things you do.
How can a young person live a pure life? By obeying your word.
Lord GOD, you are my hope. I have trusted you since I was a young boy.
You are my teacher, so I will always do whatever you decide.
All you people who worship God, come and I will tell you what he has done for me.
I sing a song to give you thanks, and I tell about all the wonderful things you have done.
But David told Recab and his brother Baanah, “As surely as the Lord lives, he is the one who has rescued me from all my troubles!
“I taught you the laws and rules that the Lord my God commanded me. I did this so you could obey them in the land you are ready to enter and take for your own.
As for me, all I need is to be close to God. I have made the Lord GOD my place of safety. And, God, I will tell about all that you have done.
