Psalms 119:34

WisdomObedienceGod's word

32 I run in the path of Your commandments, for You will enlarge my heart.

33 Teach me, O LORD, the way of Your statutes, and I will keep them to the end.

Give me understanding that I may obey Your law, and follow it with all my heart.

35 Direct me in the path of Your commandments, for there I find delight.

36 Turn my heart to Your testimonies and not to covetous gain.
