This concept is woven throughout Scripture, illustrating both God's delight in His creation and His people's delight in Him and His ways. God's Delight in Creation and His People From the very beginning, God expresses delight in His creation. In <a href="/bsb/genesis/1.htm">Genesis 1</a>, after each act of creation, God saw that it was good, culminating in <a href="/genesis/1-31.htm">Genesis 1:31</a>, where "God saw all that He had made, and it was very good." This declaration reflects God's pleasure and satisfaction in His handiwork. God's delight is also evident in His relationship with His people. In <a href="/zephaniah/3-17.htm">Zephaniah 3:17</a>, it is written, "The LORD your God is among you; He is mighty to save. He will rejoice over you with gladness; He will quiet you with His love; He will rejoice over you with singing." This verse portrays a God who takes great joy in His people, celebrating them with love and song. Delight in God's Law and Commandments The Bible frequently emphasizes the importance of delighting in God's law and commandments. <a href="/psalms/1-2.htm">Psalm 1:2</a> describes the blessed man whose "delight is in the law of the LORD, and on His law he meditates day and night." This delight is not merely an emotional response but a deep-seated appreciation and commitment to God's instructions, leading to a fruitful and prosperous life. Similarly, <a href="/bsb/psalms/119.htm">Psalm 119</a>, the longest chapter in the Bible, repeatedly highlights the psalmist's delight in God's statutes. In <a href="/psalms/119-16.htm">Psalm 119:16</a>, the psalmist declares, "I will delight in Your statutes; I will not forget Your word." This delight is portrayed as a source of strength and guidance, providing wisdom and understanding. Delight in the Lord The Scriptures also call believers to find their delight in the Lord Himself. <a href="/psalms/37-4.htm">Psalm 37:4</a> encourages, "Delight yourself in the LORD, and He will give you the desires of your heart." This verse suggests that when one's joy and satisfaction are rooted in God, their desires align with His will, leading to a fulfilled and contented life. <a href="/isaiah/58-13.htm">Isaiah 58:13-14</a> further illustrates this concept, where God promises blessings to those who delight in His Sabbath: "If you call the Sabbath a delight and the LORD’s holy day honorable...then you will find your joy in the LORD." This passage underscores the connection between delighting in God's ordained practices and experiencing His blessings. Delight in Righteousness and Justice The Bible also speaks of delight in righteousness and justice, reflecting God's own character. <a href="/proverbs/11-20.htm">Proverbs 11:20</a> states, "The LORD detests those with crooked hearts, but He delights in those with integrity." This verse highlights God's pleasure in those who live righteously and uphold justice, aligning their lives with His moral standards. In the New Testament, Jesus exemplifies this delight in righteousness. <a href="/hebrews/1-9.htm">Hebrews 1:9</a>, quoting <a href="/psalms/45-7.htm">Psalm 45:7</a>, says of Christ, "You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness; therefore God, Your God, has anointed You with the oil of joy above Your companions." Jesus' delight in righteousness is presented as a model for believers to emulate. Conclusion The biblical concept of being "delighted" encompasses a deep, abiding joy and satisfaction found in God, His creation, His commandments, and His righteous ways. It is both a response to God's goodness and a reflection of His character, inviting believers to align their hearts with His and experience the fullness of joy that comes from a life centered on Him.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.

And of thy land it is not said any more, 'Desolate,' For to thee is cried, 'My delight 'is' in her,' And to thy land, 'Married,' For Jehovah hath delighted in thee, And thy land is married. (YLT)<a href="/isaiah/65-12.htm">Isaiah 65:12</a> Therefore will I number you to the sword, and ye shall all bow down to the slaughter: because when I called, ye did not answer; when I spake, ye did not hear; but did evil before mine eyes, and did choose that wherein I delighted not. (KJV JPS ASV WBS)<a href="/isaiah/66-3.htm">Isaiah 66:3</a> Whoso slaughtereth the ox smiteth a man, Whoso sacrificeth the lamb beheadeth a dog, Whoso is bringing up a present -- The blood of a sow, Whoso is making mention of frankincense, Is blessing iniquity. Yea, they have fixed on their own ways, And in their abominations their soul hath delighted. (YLT)<a href="/isaiah/66-4.htm">Isaiah 66:4</a> I also will choose their delusions, and will bring their fears upon them; because when I called, none did answer; when I spake, they did not hear: but they did evil before mine eyes, and chose that in which I delighted not. (KJV JPS ASV WBS)<a href="/isaiah/66-11.htm">Isaiah 66:11</a> that you may nurse and be satisfied at the comforting breasts; that you may drink deeply, and be delighted with the abundance of her glory."
