Affections » Should be set upon the commandments of God
The statutes of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes. The fear of the LORD is clean, enduring forever: the judgments of the LORD are true and righteous altogether. More to be desired are they than gold, yea, than much fine gold: sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb.
[Mem] O how love I your law! it is my meditation all the day.
How sweet are your words unto my taste! yea, sweeter than honey to my mouth!
My soul has kept your testimonies; and I love them exceedingly.
