* I know , O LORD ! that thy judgments are right , And that in faithfulness thou hast afflicted me . * O let thy loving –kindness be my comfort , According to thy promise to thy servant ! * Let thy tender mercies come to me , that I may live ! For thy law is my delight . * May the proud be put to shame , who wrong me without cause ! But I will meditate on thy precepts . * Let those who fear thee turn unto me , And they that know thine ordinances ! * May my heart be perfect in thy statutes , That I may not be put to shame ! * My soul fainteth for thy salvation ; In thy promise do I trust . * Mine eyes fail with looking for thy promise ; When . say I , wilt thou comfort me ? * Yea , I am become like a bottle in the smoke ; Yet do I not forget thy statutes . * How many are the days of thy servant ? When wilt thou execute judgment upon my persecutors ? * The proud have digged pits for me ; They who do not regard thy law . * All thy commandments are faithful ; They persecute me without cause ; help thou me ! * They had almost consumed me from the earth ; But I forsook not thy precepts . * Quicken me according to thy loving –kindness , That I may keep the law of thy mouth ! * Thy word , O LORD ! abideth for ever , Being established like the heavens ; * Thy faithfulness endureth to all generations . Thou hast established the earth , and it abideth . * They continue to this day according to their ordinances ; For they are all subject to thee . * Had not thy law been my delight , I should have perished in my affliction . * I will never forget thy precepts ; For by them thou revivest me . * I am thine , help me ! For I seek thy precepts . * The wicked lie in wait to destroy me ; But I will have regard to thine ordinances . * I have seen an end of all perfection ; But thy law is exceeding broad . * O how I love thy law ! It is my daily meditation . * Thou hast made me wiser than my enemies by thy precepts ; For they are ever before me . * I have more understanding than all my teachers ; For thine ordinances are my meditation . * I have more wisdom than the ancients , Because I keep thy precepts . * I have restrained my feet from every evil way , That I might keep thy word . * I depart not from thy statutes , For thou teachest me ! * How sweet are thy words to my taste ; Yea , sweeter than honey to my mouth ! * From thy precepts I learn wisdom ; Therefore do I hate every false way . * Thy word is a lamp to my feet , And a light to my path . * I have sworn , and I will perform it , That I will keep thy righteous statutes . * I am exceedingly afflicted ; Revive me , O LORD ! according to thy word ! * Accept , O LORD ! the free –will offering of my mouth , And teach me thy statutes ! * My life is continually in my hand ; Yet do I not forget thy law . * The wicked lay snares for me , Yet do I not go astray from thy precepts . * I have made thine ordinances my possession for ever ; For they are the joy of my heart . * I have inclined my heart to perform thy statutes , Always ,––even to the end . * I hate impious men , And thy law I do love . * Thou art my hiding –place and my shield ; In thy word I put my trust ! * Depart from me , ye evil –doers ! For I will keep the commandments of my God . * Uphold me according to thy promise , that I may live ; And let me not be ashamed of my hope ! * Do thou hold me up , and I shall be safe , And I will have respect to thy statutes continually ! * Thou castest off all who depart from thy laws ; For their deceit is vain . * Thou throwest away all the wicked of the earth , like dross ; Therefore I love thine ordinances . * My flesh trembleth through fear of thee , And I am afraid of thy judgments . * I have done justice and equity ; O leave me not to mine oppressors . * Be surety for thy servant for good ; Let not the proud oppress me ! * Mine eyes fail with looking for thy help , And for thy righteous promise . * Deal with thy servant according to thy mercy , And teach me thy statutes ! * I am thy servant ; give me understanding , That I may know thine ordinances ! * It is time for thee , O LORD ! to act ; For men have made void thy law . * Therefore I love thy commandments above gold ; Yea , above fine gold . * Therefore I esteem all thy precepts concerning all things to be right ; I hate every false way . * Wonderful are thine ordinances ; Therefore do I observe them . * The communication of thy precepts giveth light ; It giveth understanding to the simple . * I open my mouth and pant : For I long for thy commandments . * Look thou upon me , and be gracious to me , As is just to those who love thy name ! * Establish my footsteps in thy word , And let no iniquity have dominion over me ! * Redeem me from the oppression of men , So will I keep thy precepts ! * Let thy face shine on thy servant , And teach me thy statutes ! * Rivers of water run down mine eyes , Because men keep not thy law . * Righteous art thou , O LORD ! And just are thy judgments ! * Just are the ordinances which thou hast ordained , And altogether righteous . * My zeal consumeth me , Because my enemies forget thy word . * Thy word is very pure , Therefore thy servant loveth it . * Of mean condition am I , and despised ; Yet do I not forget thy precepts . * Thy righteousness is everlasting righteousness , And thy law is truth . * Trouble and anguish have taken hold of me , But thy laws are my delight . * The justice of thine ordinances is everlasting ; Give me understanding , and I shall live ! * I cry to thee with my whole heart ; Hear me , O LORD ! that I may keep thy statutes . * I cry unto thee ; save me , And I will observe thine ordinances . * I come before the dawn with my prayer ; I trust in thy promise ! * My eyes anticipate the night –watches , That I may meditate upon thy promise . * Hear my voice according to thy loving –kindness ; O LORD ! revive me according to thy mercy ! * Near are they whose aim is mischief ; They are far from thy law ; * Yet thou art near , O LORD ! And all thy commandments are truth ! * Long have I known concerning thine ordinances , That thou hast founded them for ever . * Look upon my affliction , and deliver me ! For I do not forget thy law . * Maintain my cause , and redeem me ; Revive me according to thy promise ! * Salvation is far from the wicked , Because they seek not thy statutes . * Great is thy compassion , O LORD ! Revive thou me according to thine equity ! * Many are my persecutors and my enemies , Yet do I not depart from thine ordinances . * I behold the transgressors , and am grieved Because they regard not thy word . * Behold , how I love thy precepts ! O LORD ! revive me according to thy loving –kindness ! * The whole of thy word is truth , And all thy righteous judgments endure for ever . * Princes have persecuted me without cause ; But my heart standeth in awe of thy word . * I rejoice in thy word , As one that hath found great spoil . * I hate and abhor lying , And thy law do I love . * Seven times a day do I praise thee On account of thy righteous judgments . * Great peace have they who love thy law , And no evil shall befall them . * O LORD ! I wait for thy salvation , And keep thy commandments ! * My soul observeth thine ordinances , And loveth them exceedingly . * I keep thy precepts and thine ordinances ; For all my ways are before thee . * Let my prayer come near before thee , O LORD ! According to thy promise , give me understanding ! * Let my supplication come before thee ; O deliver me according to thy promise ! * My lips shall pour forth praise ; For thou teachest me thy statutes . * My tongue shall sing of thy word ; For all thy commandments are right . * Let thy hand be my help ; For I have chosen thy precepts ! * I long for thy salvation , O LORD ! And thy law is my delight ! * Let me live , and I will praise thee ; Let thy judgments help me ! * I wander like a lost sheep ; seek thy servant , For I do not forget thy commandments !
