119:105-112 Nun (נ): The psalmist’s devotion to God’s word comes from within his being (119:112) and guides his external life.
119:105-106 The Lord’s word is a lamp that provides perspective, hope, and guidance in darkness (18:25-29; 119:130). Even more, this light gives life (Prov 6:23).
Other Bible passages linked to this one, most cited first.
For the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life:
O send out thy light and thy truth: let them lead me; let them bring me unto thy holy hill, and to thy tabernacles.
For thou wilt light my candle: the LORD my God will enlighten my darkness.
We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts:
When his candle shined upon my head, and when by his light I walked through darkness;
The statutes of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes.
