Psalms 37:4

Delight thyself also in the Lord
In the persons in God, Father, Son, and Spirit; in the perfections of God, his power, goodness, faithfulness, wisdom, love, grace, and mercy; in his works of creation, providence, and redemption; in his word, his Gospel, the truths and ordinances of it; in his house, and the worship of it; and in his people, the excellent in the earth, in whom was all the delight of the psalmist; and each of these afford a field of delight and pleasure, to attend unto, contemplate, and meditate upon;

and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart;
such as are according to the will of God, and for the good of his people; such as relate to communion with him, and to the communication of more grace from him, and to the enjoyment of eternal glory.

2 Car ils seront bientôt fauchés comme l'herbe; ils se faneront comme l'herbe verte.
3 Confie-toi en l'Éternel, et fais le bien; habite la terre, et fais de la vérité ta pâture.
4 Et prends ton plaisir en l'Éternel, et il t'accordera les demandes de ton cœur.
5 Remets ta voie à l'Éternel et te confie en lui, et il agira.
6 Il fera ressortir ta justice comme la lumière, et ton droit comme le plein midi.
