Trouble and anguish have found and taken hold on me, yet Your commandments are my delight.
Trouble and anguish have taken hold on me; Yet thy commandments are my delight.

I have not strayed from the command of His lips. I have treasured the words of His mouth more than my own law.

I have been afflicted very much; O יהוה, revive me according to Your word.
I delight myself in Your laws; I do not forget Your word.
That I might delight myself in Your commands, Which I have loved;
Let Your compassions come to me, That I might live, For Your Torah is my delight.
Out of the depths I have cried to You, O יהוה.
