Psalm 119:97-104

Contemporary English Version

⁹⁷ I deeply love your Law!
    I think about it all day.
⁹⁸ Your laws never leave my mind,
and they make me much wiser
    than my enemies.
⁹⁹ Thinking about your teachings
gives me better understanding
    than my teachers,
¹⁰⁰ and obeying your laws
makes me wiser than those
    who have lived a long time.
¹⁰¹ I obey your word
instead of following a way
    that leads to trouble.
¹⁰² You have been my teacher,
and I won't reject
    your instructions.
¹⁰³ Your teachings are sweeter
    than honey.
¹⁰⁴ They give me understanding
    and make me hate all lies.
