Seeker Overlay ON

* Blessed are the undefiled in the way , who walk in the law of the LORD . * Blessed are they that keep his testimonies , and that seek him with the whole heart . * They also do no iniquity : they walk in his ways . * You have commanded us to keep your precepts diligently . * O that my ways were directed to keep your statutes ! * Then shall I not be ashamed , when I have respect to all your commandments . * I will praise you with uprightness of heart , when I shall have learned your righteous judgments . * I will keep your statutes : O forsake me not utterly . * Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way ? by taking heed thereto according to your word . * With my whole heart have I sought you : O let me not wander from your commandments . * Your word have I hid in my heart , that I might not sin against you . * Blessed are you , O LORD : teach me your statutes . * With my lips have I declared all the judgments of your mouth . * I have rejoiced in the way of your testimonies , as much as in all riches . * I will meditate in your precepts , and have respect to your ways . * I will delight myself in your statutes : I will not forget your word . * Deal bountifully with your servant , that I may live , and keep your word . * Open you my eyes , that I may behold wondrous things out of your law . * I am a stranger in the earth : hide not your commandments from me . * My soul breaks for the longing that it has to your judgments at all times . * You have rebuked the proud that are cursed , which do err from your commandments . * Remove from me reproach and contempt ; for I have kept your testimonies . * Princes also did sit and speak against me : but your servant did meditate in your statutes . * Your testimonies also are my delight and my counsellors . * My soul sticks to the dust : quicken you me according to your word . * I have declared my ways , and you heard me : teach me your statutes . * Make me to understand the way of your precepts : so shall I talk of your wondrous works . * My soul melts for heaviness : strengthen you me according to your word . * Remove from me the way of lying : and grant me your law graciously . * I have chosen the way of truth : your judgments have I laid before me . * I have stuck to your testimonies : O LORD , put me not to shame . * I will run the way of your commandments , when you shall enlarge my heart . * Teach me , O LORD , the way of your statutes ; and I shall keep it to the end . * Give me understanding , and I shall keep your law ; yes , I shall observe it with my whole heart . * Make me to go in the path of your commandments ; for therein do I delight . * Incline my heart to your testimonies , and not to covetousness . * Turn away my eyes from beholding vanity ; and quicken you me in your way . * Establish your word to your servant , who is devoted to your fear . * Turn away my reproach which I fear : for your judgments are good . * Behold , I have longed after your precepts : quicken me in your righteousness . * Let your mercies come also to me , O LORD , even your salvation , according to your word . * So shall I have with which to answer him that reproaches me : for I trust in your word . * And take not the word of truth utterly out of my mouth ; for I have hoped in your judgments . * So shall I keep your law continually for ever and ever . * And I will walk at liberty : for I seek your precepts . * I will speak of your testimonies also before kings , and will not be ashamed . * And I will delight myself in your commandments , which I have loved . * My hands also will I lift up to your commandments , which I have loved ; and I will meditate in your statutes . * Remember the word to your servant , on which you have caused me to hope . * This is my comfort in my affliction : for your word has quickened me . * The proud have had me greatly in derision : yet have I not declined from your law . * I remembered your judgments of old , O LORD ; and have comforted myself . * Horror has taken hold on me because of the wicked that forsake your law . * Your statutes have been my songs in the house of my pilgrimage . * I have remembered your name , O LORD , in the night , and have kept your law . * This I had , because I kept your precepts . * You are my portion , O LORD : I have said that I would keep your words . * I entreated your favor with my whole heart : be merciful to me according to your word . * I thought on my ways , and turned my feet to your testimonies . * I made haste , and delayed not to keep your commandments . * The bands of the wicked have robbed me : but I have not forgotten your law . * At midnight I will rise to give thanks to you because of your righteous judgments . * I am a companion of all them that fear you , and of them that keep your precepts . * The earth , O LORD , is full of your mercy : teach me your statutes . * You have dealt well with your servant , O LORD , according to your word . * Teach me good judgment and knowledge : for I have believed your commandments . * Before I was afflicted I went astray : but now have I kept your word . * You are good , and do good ; teach me your statutes . * The proud have forged a lie against me : but I will keep your precepts with my whole heart . * Their heart is as fat as grease ; but I delight in your law . * It is good for me that I have been afflicted ; that I might learn your statutes . * The law of your mouth is better to me than thousands of gold and silver . * Your hands have made me and fashioned me : give me understanding , that I may learn your commandments . * They that fear you will be glad when they see me ; because I have hoped in your word . * I know , O LORD , that your judgments are right , and that you in faithfulness have afflicted me . * Let , I pray you , your merciful kindness be for my comfort , according to your word to your servant . * Let your tender mercies come to me , that I may live : for your law is my delight . * Let the proud be ashamed ; for they dealt perversely with me without a cause : but I will meditate in your precepts . * Let those that fear you turn to me , and those that have known your testimonies . * Let my heart be sound in your statutes ; that I be not ashamed . * My soul faints for your salvation : but I hope in your word . * My eyes fail for your word , saying , When will you comfort me ? * For I am become like a bottle in the smoke ; yet do I not forget your statutes . * How many are the days of your servant ? when will you execute judgment on them that persecute me ? * The proud have dig pits for me , which are not after your law . * All your commandments are faithful : they persecute me wrongfully ; help you me . * They had almost consumed me on earth ; but I forsook not your precepts . * Quicken me after your loving kindness ; so shall I keep the testimony of your mouth . * For ever , O LORD , your word is settled in heaven . * Your faithfulness is to all generations : you have established the earth , and it stays . * They continue this day according to your ordinances : for all are your servants . * Unless your law had been my delights , I should then have perished in my affliction . * I will never forget your precepts : for with them you have quickened me . * I am yours , save me : for I have sought your precepts . * The wicked have waited for me to destroy me : but I will consider your testimonies . * I have seen an end of all perfection : but your commandment is exceeding broad . * O how I love your law ! it is my meditation all the day . * You through your commandments have made me wiser than my enemies : for they are ever with me . * I have more understanding than all my teachers : for your testimonies are my meditation . * I understand more than the ancients , because I keep your precepts . * I have refrained my feet from every evil way , that I might keep your word . * I have not departed from your judgments : for you have taught me . * How sweet are your words to my taste ! yes , sweeter than honey to my mouth ! * Through your precepts I get understanding : therefore I hate every false way . * Your 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 your righteous judgments . * I am afflicted very much : quicken me , O LORD , according to your word . * Accept , I beseech you , the freewill offerings of my mouth , O LORD , and teach me your judgments . * My soul is continually in my hand : yet do I not forget your law . * The wicked have laid a snare for me : yet I erred not from your precepts . * Your testimonies have I taken as an heritage for ever : for they are the rejoicing of my heart . * I have inclined my heart to perform your statutes always , even to the end . * I hate vain thoughts : but your law do I love . * You are my hiding place and my shield : I hope in your word . * Depart from me , you evildoers : for I will keep the commandments of my God . * Uphold me according to your word , that I may live : and let me not be ashamed of my hope . * Hold you me up , and I shall be safe : and I will have respect to your statutes continually . * You have trodden down all them that err from your statutes : for their deceit is falsehood . * You put away all the wicked of the earth like dross : therefore I love your testimonies . * My flesh trembles for fear of you ; and I am afraid of your judgments . * I have done judgment and justice : leave me not to my oppressors . * Be surety for your servant for good : let not the proud oppress me . * My eyes fail for your salvation , and for the word of your righteousness . * Deal with your servant according to your mercy , and teach me your statutes . * I am your servant ; give me understanding , that I may know your testimonies . * It is time for you , LORD , to work : for they have made void your law . * Therefore I love your commandments above gold ; yes , above fine gold . * Therefore I esteem all your precepts concerning all things to be right ; and I hate every false way . * Your testimonies are wonderful : therefore does my soul keep them . * The entrance of your words gives light ; it gives understanding to the simple . * I opened my mouth , and panted : for I longed for your commandments . * Look you on me , and be merciful to me , as you use to do to those that love your name . * Order my steps in your word : and let not any iniquity have dominion over me . * Deliver me from the oppression of man : so will I keep your precepts . * Make your face to shine on your servant ; and teach me your statutes . * Rivers of waters run down my eyes , because they keep not your law . * Righteous are you , O LORD , and upright are your judgments . * Your testimonies that you have commanded are righteous and very faithful . * My zeal has consumed me , because my enemies have forgotten your words . * Your word is very pure : therefore your servant loves it . * I am small and despised : yet do not I forget your precepts . * Your righteousness is an everlasting righteousness , and your law is the truth . * Trouble and anguish have taken hold on me : yet your commandments are my delights . * The righteousness of your testimonies is everlasting : give me understanding , and I shall live . * I cried with my whole heart ; hear me , O LORD : I will keep your statutes . * I cried to you ; save me , and I shall keep your testimonies . * I prevented the dawning of the morning , and cried : I hoped in your word . * My eyes prevent the night watches , that I might meditate in your word . * Hear my voice according to your loving kindness : O LORD , quicken me according to your judgment . * They draw near that follow after mischief : they are far from your law . * You are near , O LORD ; and all your commandments are truth . * Concerning your testimonies , I have known of old that you have founded them for ever . * Consider my affliction , and deliver me : for I do not forget your law . * Plead my cause , and deliver me : quicken me according to your word . * Salvation is far from the wicked : for they seek not your statutes . * Great are your tender mercies , O LORD : quicken me according to your judgments . * Many are my persecutors and my enemies ; yet do I not decline from your testimonies . * I beheld the transgressors , and was grieved ; because they kept not your word . * Consider how I love your precepts : quicken me , O LORD , according to your loving kindness . * Your word is true from the beginning : and every one of your righteous judgments endures for ever . * Princes have persecuted me without a cause : but my heart stands in awe of your word . * I rejoice at your word , as one that finds great spoil . * I hate and abhor lying : but your law do I love . * Seven times a day do I praise you because of your righteous judgments . * Great peace have they which love your law : and nothing shall offend them . * LORD , I have hoped for your salvation , and done your commandments . * My soul has kept your testimonies ; and I love them exceedingly . * I have kept your precepts and your testimonies : for all my ways are before you . * Let my cry come near before you , O LORD : give me understanding according to your word . * Let my supplication come before you : deliver me according to your word . * My lips shall utter praise , when you have taught me your statutes . * My tongue shall speak of your word : for all your commandments are righteousness . * Let your hand help me ; for I have chosen your precepts . * I have longed for your salvation , O LORD ; and your law is my delight . * Let my soul live , and it shall praise you ; and let your judgments help me . * I have gone astray like a lost sheep ; seek your servant ; for I do not forget your commandments .
