98 You, through Your commandments, make me ^awiser than my enemies;
For they are ever with me. ‡

99 I have more understanding than all my teachers,
^aFor Your testimonies are my meditation. ‡

100 ^aI understand more than the¹ ancients,
Because I keep Your precepts. ‡

101 I have restrained my feet from every evil way,
That I may keep Your word.

102 I have not departed from Your judgments,
For You Yourself have taught me.

103 ^aHow sweet are Your words to my taste,
Sweeter than honey to my mouth! ‡

104 Through Your precepts I get understanding;
Therefore I hate every false way.
