Go to Psalms~101-150


Ps 119:97-112: When the psalmist is taught by God through studying and meditating on his word, he learns true wisdom.

He is wiser than all the worldly-wise, in spite of their years of experience (Ps 119:97-100).

The wisdom that comes from God’s word produces moral uprightness and sound judgment (Ps 119:101-104).

It shows the psalmist how he should behave when he is afflicted (Ps 119:105-107), when he is praying or worshipping (Ps 119:108) and when he is in danger (Ps 119:109-110).

It gives him constant and deep-seated joy (Ps 119:111-112).
