Psalm 119 - Delight
14 In the way of your testimonies I delight as much as in all riches. 15 I will meditate on your precepts and fix my eyes on your ways. 16 I will delight in your statutes; I will not forget your word.
24 Your testimonies are my delight; they are my counselors.
35 Lead me in the path of your commandments, for I delight in it.
47 for I find my delight in your commandments, which I love.
97 Oh how I love your law! It is my meditation all the day.
143 Trouble and anguish have found me out, but your commandments are my delight.
174 I long for your salvation, O LORD, and your law is my delight.
