Psalms 119:13 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 119:13

With my lips have I declared all the judgments of thy mouth.
] Not the judgments of his hand, what he executes on an ungodly world; nor the intricate dispensations of his providence; those judgments of his now unsearchable, though before long will be manifest; these the psalmist could not declare: but the revelation of the will of God, what his mouth has uttered, doctrines and precepts of righteousness and truth; these, though David had them in his heart, he did not conceal them from men; but out of the abundant experience he had of them in his heart, his lips spake of them, of their nature and excellency, and usefulness unto others: and whereas he desired to be instructed more and more in them, it was in order to teach them, and declare them to others; even all of them, in the most sincere and impartial manner; see ( Acts 20:27 ) .

11 I've banked your promises in the vault of my heart so I won't sin myself bankrupt.

12 Be blessed, God; train me in your ways of wise living.

13 I'll transfer to my lips all the counsel that comes from your mouth;

14 I delight far more in what you tell me about living than in gathering a pile of riches.
