Unless thy law had been my delight, I should then have perished in my affliction.
For as many things as were written previously were written for our learning, so that through perseverance and through the encouragement of the scriptures we might have hope.
Trouble and anguish have taken hold on me. Thy commandments are my delight.
Let thy tender mercies come to me that I may live, for thy law is my delight.
Thy testimonies also are my delight [and] my counselors.
I believe that I shall see the goodness of LORD in the land of the living.
I will delight myself in thy statutes. I will not forget thy word.
This is my comfort in my affliction, for thy word has revived me.
