“Oh, how I love your law! I meditate on it all day long.
Your commands make me wiser than my enemies, for they are ever with me.
I have more insight than all my teachers, for I meditate on your statutes.
I have more understanding than the elders, for I obey your precepts.
How sweet are your words to my taste, sweeter than honey to my mouth!
Psalms 119:97-100, 103”
