101From every evil path I restrained my feet, So that I keep Thy word.

102From Thy judgments I turned not aside, For Thou—Thou hast directed me.

103How sweet to my palate hath been Thy saying, Above honey to my mouth.

104From Thy precepts I have understanding, Therefore I have hated every false path!

105Nun. A lamp to my foot is Thy word, And a light to my path.

Your word is a lamp to my feet
