Oh how I love your law! It is my meditation all the day. Your commandment makes me wiser than my enemies, for it is ever with me. I have more understanding than all my teachers, for your testimonies are my meditation. I understand more than the aged, for I keep your precepts. I hold back my feet from every evil way, in order to keep your word. I do not turn aside from your rules, for you have taught me. How sweet are your words to my taste, sweeter than honey to my mouth! Through your precepts I get understanding; therefore I hate every false way.
Ah, that beautiful, complete understanding. It gives me wisdom to combat the enemies that the Father of Lies throws against me; it gives me wisdom to progress in Kingdom work; it enables me to keep from straying into evil ways; it keeps me on the straight and narrow path that is life in communion with You; it provides a sweetness sweeter than honey to encourage and strengthen my soul; it reveals all that is not of You and instills revulsion in me. It is the Revealer of You.
