Psalms 119:106

Psalms 119:106. I have sworn, and I will perform it, that I will keep thy righteous judgments.

Perhaps mistrusting his own fickle mind, he had pledged himself in sacred form to abide faithful to the determinations of his God. Whatever path might open before him, he was sworn to follow that only upon which the lamp of the word was shining.
