Psalm 119:99-108 New International Version (NIV)

99. I have more insight than all my teachers, for I meditate on your statutes.

100. I have more understanding than the elders, for I obey your precepts.

101. I have kept my feet from every evil path so that I might obey your word.

102. I have not departed from your laws, for you yourself have taught me.

103. How sweet are your words to my taste, sweeter than honey to my mouth!

104. I gain understanding from your precepts; therefore I hate every wrong path.

105. Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path.

106. I have taken an oath and confirmed it, that I will follow your righteous laws.

107. I have suffered much; preserve my life, Lord, according to your word.

108. Accept, Lord, the willing praise of my mouth, and teach me your laws.
