Psalm 119:165-175
165 Those who love your law have great peace, and there is no scandal for them. 166 I have waited for your salvation, O Lord. And I have loved your commandments. 167 My soul has kept to your testimonies and has loved them exceedingly. 168 I have served your commandments and your testimonies. For all my ways are before your sight. 169 TAU. O Lord, let my supplication draw near in your sight. Grant understanding to me according to your eloquence. 170 Let my petition enter before you. Rescue me according to your word. 171 A hymn will burst forth from my lips, when you will teach me your justifications. 172 My tongue will pronounce your eloquence. For all your commandments are fairness. 173 Let it be your hand that saves me. For I have chosen your commandments. 174 O Lord, I have longed for your salvation, and your law is my meditation. 175 My soul will live and will praise you, and your judgments will assist me. Sirach 4:11-19 11 And then you shall be like an obedient son of the Most High, and he will take pity on you more than a mother would. 12 Wisdom breathes life into her sons, and she lifts up those who are seeking her, and she will precede them in the way of justice. 13 And he who loves her loves life. And those who watch for her shall embrace her delights. 14 Those who hold to her will inherit life. And whatever place she enters, God will bless. 15 Those who serve her will yield to what is holy. And God loves those who love wisdom. 16 He who listens to her shall judge the nations. And he who gazes upon her will remain secure. 17 If he believes in her, he will inherit her, and whatever arises from him will be confirmed. 18 For she walks with him through temptation, and she chooses him from the beginning. 19 She will lead fear and dread and trials over him, and she will crucify him with the tribulation of her doctrine, until she has tested him in his thoughts and she can trust in his soul.
