Daytime prayer, Thursday 14th May 2026<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Psalm 119:65-72
IX (Teth)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A meditation on God\u2019s law<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Loving God means keeping his commandments<\/em> (1 John 5:3).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lord, you have been good to your servant *
according to your word.
Teach me discernment and knowledge *
for I trust in your commands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before I was afflicted I strayed *
but now I keep your word.
You are good and your deeds are good; *
teach me your commandments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Though the proud smear me with lies *
yet I keep your precepts.
Their minds are closed to good *
but your law is my delight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was good for me to be afflicted, *
to learn your will.
The law from your mouth means more to me *
than silver and gold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Glory to the Father, and to the Son *
and to the Holy Spirit:
as it was in the beginning, is now, *
and will be for ever. Amen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":18436,"template":"","rizors":[],"yoast_head":"\nbut now I keep your word - Behold<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/behold.mt\/en\/talba-bis-salmi\/but-now-i-keep-your-word\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"but now I keep your word - Behold\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Daytime prayer, Thursday 14th May 2026 Psalm 119:65-72IX (Teth) A meditation on God\u2019s law Loving God means keeping his commandments (1 John 5:3).
