Psalms 119:105

For the commandment is a lamp, and the law is light. Reproofs of instruction are the way of life,

The works of his hands are truth and justice. All his precepts are sure.

For the word of God is living and active, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and is able to discern the thoughts and intentions of the heart.

Oh how great is your goodness, which you have laid up for those who fear you, which you have worked for those who take refuge in you, before the sons of men!

Every Scripture is God-breathed and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for instruction in righteousness,

Oh, send out your light and your truth. Let them lead me. Let them bring me to your holy hill, to your tents.

Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.

The entrance of your words gives light. It gives understanding to the simple.

For you will light my lamp, Yahweh. My God will light up my darkness.

to open their eyes, that they may turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive remission of sins and an inheritance among those who are sanctified by faith in me.’

We have the more sure word of prophecy; and you do well that you heed it, as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawns, and the morning star arises in your hearts:

and I will give him the morning star.

He restores my soul. He guides me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.

seeing it is God who said, “Light will shine out of darkness,” who has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.

You will also decree a thing, and it will be established to you. Light will shine on your ways.

Yahweh’s words are flawless words, as silver refined in a clay furnace, purified seven times.

Yahweh’s law is perfect, restoring the soul. Yahweh’s covenant is sure, making wise the simple.

Yahweh’s precepts are right, rejoicing the heart. Yahweh’s commandment is pure, enlightening the eyes.

Yahweh is my light and my salvation. Whom shall I fear? Yahweh is the strength of my life. Of whom shall I be afraid?

Your statutes stand firm. Holiness adorns your house, Yahweh, forever more.

to give prudence to the simple, knowledge and discretion to the young man:

It is the spirit who gives life. The flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and are life.

I turned to see the voice that spoke with me. Having turned, I saw seven golden lamp stands.

I, Jesus, have sent my angel to testify these things to you for the assemblies. I am the root and the offspring of David, the Bright and Morning Star.”

The Rock: his work is perfect, for all his ways are just. A God of faithfulness who does no wrong, just and right is he.

The light will be dark in his tent. His lamp above him will be put out.

when his lamp shone on my head, and by his light I walked through darkness,

“Yet I have set my King on my holy hill of Zion.”

Turn to the law and to the covenant! If they don’t speak according to this word, surely there is no morning for them.

He was the burning and shining lamp, and you were willing to rejoice for a while in his light.

Again, therefore, Jesus spoke to them, saying, “I am the light of the world. He who follows me will not walk in the darkness, but will have the light of life.”

For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared before that we would walk in them.

Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly; in all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another with psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your heart to the Lord.

If we say that we have fellowship with him and walk in the darkness, we lie, and don’t tell the truth.

You shall set the table outside the veil, and the lamp stand opposite the table on the side of the tabernacle toward the south. You shall put the table on the north side.

He lit the lamps before Yahweh, as Yahweh commanded Moses.

I see him, but not now. I see him, but not near. A star will come out of Jacob. A scepter will rise out of Israel, and shall strike through the corners of Moab, and crush all the sons of Sheth.

I haven’t gone back from the commandment of his lips. I have treasured up the words of his mouth more than my necessary food.

I cry to Yahweh with my voice, and he answers me out of his holy hill.

Don’t withhold your tender mercies from me, Yahweh. Let your loving kindness and your truth continually preserve me.

How lovely are your dwellings, Yahweh of Armies!

Yahweh preserves the simple. I was brought low, and he saved me.

The law of your mouth is better to me than thousands of pieces of gold and silver.

I have taken your testimonies as a heritage forever, for they are the joy of my heart.

Therefore I consider all of your precepts to be right. I hate every false way.

I will make the horn of David to bud there. I have ordained a lamp for my anointed.

How you have fallen from heaven, shining one, son of the dawn! How you are cut down to the ground, who laid the nations low!

Don’t be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God.

For whatever things were written before were written for our learning, that through perseverance and through encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope.

But all things, when they are reproved, are revealed by the light, for everything that reveals is light.

“The duty of Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest shall be the oil for the light, the sweet incense, the continual meal offering, and the anointing oil, the requirements of all the tabernacle, and of all that is in it, the sanctuary, and its furnishings.”

Keep therefore and do them; for this is your wisdom and your understanding in the sight of the peoples who shall hear all these statutes and say, “Surely this great nation is a wise and understanding people.”

This book of the law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it; for then you shall make your way prosperous, and then you shall have good success.

Isn’t my house so with God? Yet he has made with me an everlasting covenant, ordered in all things, and sure, for it is all my salvation, and all my desire, although he doesn’t make it grow.

As for God, his way is perfect. Yahweh’s word is tried. He is a shield to all those who take refuge in him.

For Yahweh’s word is right. All his work is done in faithfulness.

He will send from heaven, and save me, he rebukes the one who is pursuing me. God will send out his loving kindness and his truth.

Yahweh is God, and he has given us light. Bind the sacrifice with cords, even to the horns of the altar.

I have rejoiced in the way of your testimonies, as much as in all riches.

Indeed your statutes are my delight, and my counselors.

Wrap up the covenant. Seal the law among my disciples.

Who among you fears Yahweh and obeys the voice of his servant? He who walks in darkness and has no light, let him trust in Yahweh’s name, and rely on his God.

because of the tender mercy of our God, by which the dawn from on high will visit us,

All the prophets testify about him, that through his name everyone who believes in him will receive remission of sins.”

Therefore don’t be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner; but endure hardship for the Good News according to the power of God,

However God’s firm foundation stands, having this seal, “The Lord knows those who are his,” and, “Let every one who names the name of the Lord depart from unrighteousness.”

Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom can be no variation, nor turning shadow.

You shall make its lamps seven, and they shall light its lamps to give light to the space in front of it.

He put the lamp stand in the Tent of Meeting, opposite the table, on the south side of the tabernacle.

“Command the children of Israel, that they bring to you pure olive oil beaten for the light, to cause a lamp to burn continually.

“They shall take a blue cloth and cover the lamp stand of the light, its lamps, its snuffers, its snuff dishes, and all its oil vessels, with which they minister to it.

“Speak to Aaron, and tell him, ‘When you light the lamps, the seven lamps shall give light in front of the lamp stand.’ ”

Then you will understand righteousness and justice, equity and every good path.

Then I saw that wisdom excels folly, as far as light excels darkness.

But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his works may be revealed, that they have been done in God.”
