longing for the word

As love for Scripture is attacked, I'll go with the words of the Psalmist in Psalm 119:

• “In the way of your testimonies I delight as much as in all riches” (v. 14).
• “My soul is consumed with longing for your rules at all times” (v. 20).
• “Behold, I long for your precepts” (v. 40).
• “For I find my delight in your commandments, which I love” (v. 47).
• “The law of your mouth is better to me than thousands of gold and silver pieces” (v. 72).
• “Oh how I love your law!” (v. 97).
• “How sweet are your words to my taste, sweeter than honey to my mouth!” (v. 103).
• “Your testimonies are my heritage forever, for they are the joy of my heart” (v. 111).
• “Therefore I love your commandments above gold, above fine gold” (v. 127).
• “I rejoice at your word like one who finds great spoil” (v. 162).
• “My soul keeps your testimonies; I love them exceedingly” (v. 167).
