10 All the paths of the Lord are mercy and truth unto such as keep his covenant and his testimonies.
10 All the ways of the Lord are loving and faithful toward those who keep the demands of his covenant.
10 All the paths of the Lord are steadfast love and faithfulness, for those who keep his covenant and his testimonies.
10 From now on every road you travel Will take you to God. Follow the Covenant signs; Read the charted directions.
10 All the paths of the Lord are mercy and truth, To such as keep His covenant and His testimonies.
10 The Lord leads with unfailing love and faithfulness all who keep his covenant and obey his demands.
6 Thy righteousness is like the great mountains; thy judgments are a great deep: O Lord, thou preservest man and beast.
6 Your righteousness is like the highest mountains, your justice like the great deep. You, Lord, preserve both people and animals.
6 Your righteousness is like the mountains of God; your judgments are like the great deep; man and beast you save, O Lord.
6 His purpose titanic, his verdicts oceanic. Yet in his largeness nothing gets lost; Not a man, not a mouse, slips through the cracks.
6 Your righteousness is like the great mountains; Your judgments are a great deep; O Lord, You preserve man and beast.
6 Your righteousness is like the mighty mountains, your justice like the ocean depths. You care for people and animals alike, O Lord .
(Read Psalm 36:5-12)
Men may shut up their compassion, yet, with God we shall find mercy. This is great comfort to all believers, plainly to be seen, and not to be taken away. God does all wisely and well; but what he does we know not now, it is time enough to know hereafter. God's loving-kindness is precious to the saints. They put themselves under his protection, and then are safe and easy. Gracious souls, though still desiring more of God, never desire more than God. The gifts of Providence so far satisfy them, that they are content with such things as they have. The benefit of holy ordinances is sweet to a sanctified soul, and strengthening to the spiritual and Divine life. But full satisfaction is reserved for the future state. Their joys shall be constant. God not only works in them a gracious desire for these pleasures, but by his Spirit fills their souls with joy and peace in believing. He quickens whom he will; and whoever will, may come, and take from him of the waters of life freely. May we know, and love, and uprightly serve the Lord; then no proud enemy, on earth or from hell, shall separate us from his love. Faith calleth things that are not, as though they were. It carries us forward to the end of time; it shows us the Lord, on his throne of judgment; the empire of sin fallen to rise no more.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Psalm 25:10
Commentary on Psalm 25:8-14
(Read Psalm 25:8-14)
We are all sinners; and Christ came into the world to save sinners, to teach sinners, to call sinners to repentance. We value a promise by the character of him that makes it; we therefore depend upon God's promises. All the paths of the Lord, that is, all his promises and all his providences, are mercy and truth. In all God's dealings his people may see his mercy displayed, and his word fulfilled, whatever afflictions they are now exercised with. All the paths of the Lord are mercy and truth; and so it will appear when they come to their journey's end. Those that are humble, that distrust themselves, and desire to be taught and to follow Divine guidance, these he will guide in judgment, that is, by the rule of the written word, to find rest for their souls in the Saviour. Even when the body is sick, and in pain, the soul may be at ease in God.
