Psalms 119:89-104

Psalms 119:89-104 CSB

LORD, your word is forever;  it is firmly fixed in heaven. Your faithfulness is for all generations;  you established the earth, and it stands firm.  Your judgments stand firm today,  for all things are your servants.  If your instruction had not been my delight, I would have died in my affliction.  I will never forget your precepts, for you have given me life through them.  I am yours; save me,  for I have studied your precepts.  The wicked hope to destroy me,  but I contemplate your decrees. I have seen a limit to all perfection, but your command is without limit. How I love your instruction!  It is my meditation all day long.  Your command makes me wiser than my enemies,  for it is always with me. I have more insight than all my teachers because your decrees are my meditation.  I understand more than the elders  because I obey your precepts.  I have kept my feet from every evil path  to follow your word. I have not turned from your judgments,  for you yourself have instructed me. How sweet your word is  to my taste — sweeter than honey in my mouth. I gain understanding from your precepts;  therefore I hate every false way.
