Seeker Overlay ON
*
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 my eyes ,
that I may see Wondrous things from Your law .
*
I am a stranger in the earth ;
Do not hide Your commandments from me .
*
My soul breaks with longing For Your judgments at all times .
*
You rebuke the proud--the cursed ,
Who stray from Your commandments .
*
Remove from me reproach and contempt ,
For I have kept Your testimonies .
*
Princes also sit and speak against me ,
But Your servant meditates on Your statutes .
*
Your testimonies also are my delight And my counselors .
*
My soul clings to the dust ;
Revive me according to Your word .
*
I have declared my ways ,
and You answered me ;
Teach me Your statutes .
*
Make me understand the way of Your precepts ;
So shall I meditate on Your wonderful works .
*
My soul melts from heaviness ;
Strengthen 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 I have laid before me .
*
I cling to Your testimonies ;
O LORD ,
do not put me to shame !
*
I will run the course of Your commandments ,
For 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 ;
Indeed ,
I shall observe it with my whole heart .
*
Make me walk in the path of Your commandments ,
For I delight in it .
*
Incline my heart to Your testimonies ,
And not to covetousness .
*
Turn away my eyes from looking at worthless things ,
And revive me in Your way .
*
Establish Your word to Your servant ,
Who is devoted to fearing You .
*
Turn away my reproach which I dread ,
For Your judgments are good .
*
Behold ,
I long for Your precepts ;
Revive me in Your righteousness .
*
Let Your mercies come also to me ,
O LORD --
Your salvation according to Your word .
*
So shall I have an answer for him who 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 ordinances .
*
So shall I keep Your law continually ,
Forever 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 love .
*
My hands also I will lift up to Your commandments ,
Which I love ,
And I will meditate on Your statutes .
*
Remember the word to Your servant ,
Upon which You have caused me to hope .
*
This is my comfort in my affliction ,
For Your word has given me life .
*
The proud have me in great derision ,
Yet I do not turn aside from Your law .
*
I remembered Your judgments of old ,
O LORD ,
And have comforted myself .
*
Indignation has taken hold of me Because of the wicked ,
who forsake Your law .
*
Your statutes have been my songs In the house of my pilgrimage .
*
I remember Your name in the night ,
O LORD ,
And I keep Your law .
*
This has become mine ,
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 about my ways ,
And turned my feet to Your testimonies .
*
I made haste ,
and did not delay To keep Your commandments .
*
The cords of the wicked have bound 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 who fear You ,
And of those who 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 believe Your commandments .
*
Before I was afflicted I went astray ,
But now I keep 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 may learn Your statutes .
*
The law of Your mouth is better to me Than thousands of coins of gold and silver .
*
Your hands have made me and fashioned me ;
Give me understanding ,
that I may learn Your commandments .
*
Those who 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 in faithfulness You have afflicted me .
*
Let ,
I pray ,
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 treated me wrongfully with falsehood ;
But I will meditate on Your precepts .
*
Let those who fear You turn to me ,
Those who know Your testimonies .
*
Let my heart be blameless regarding Your statutes ,
That I may not be ashamed .
