²³ For the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life:

¹⁰⁵ Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.

¹⁹ We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts:

⁸ The statutes of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of the Lord is pure, enlightening the eyes.

³¹ The ear that heareth the reproof of life abideth among the wise.

¹³ Take fast hold of instruction; let her not go: keep her; for she is thy life.

⁸ And unto this people thou shalt say, Thus saith the Lord; Behold, I set before you the way of life, and the way of death.

⁴ He taught me also, and said unto me, Let thine heart retain my words: keep my commandments, and live.

⁹⁸ Thou through thy commandments hast made me wiser than mine enemies: for they are ever with me.

⁹⁹ I have more understanding than all my teachers: for thy testimonies are my meditation.

¹⁰⁰ I understand more than the ancients, because I keep thy precepts.

⁵ Let the righteous smite me; it shall be a kindness: and let him reprove me; it shall be an excellent oil, which shall not break my head: for yet my prayer also shall be in their calamities.
