Psalm 40:8

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

I delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law is within my heart.

Praise ye the LORD. Blessed is the man that feareth the LORD, that delighteth greatly in his commandments.

I will delight myself in thy statutes: I will not forget thy word.

Neither have I gone back from the commandment of his lips; I have esteemed the words of his mouth more than my necessary food.

Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was to me the joy and rejoicing of my heart: for I am called by thy name, O LORD God of hosts.

Jesus saith to them, My food is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work.

For I delight in the law of God, after the inward man:

For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the first-born among many brethren.

And it shall be, if he shall say to thee, I will not leave thee; because he loveth thee and thy house, because he is well with thee;

I will not reprove thee for thy sacrifices or thy burnt-offerings, to have been continually before me.

The Lord GOD opened my ear, and I was not rebellious, neither turned away back.
