Trouble and anguish have taken hold on me;\par\tab {\i Yet} thy commandments are my delight.
I have not gone back from the commandment of his lips;\par\tab I have treasured up the words of his mouth more than my necessary food.
I am afflicted very much:\par\tab Quicken me, O Jehovah, according unto thy word.
{\b A Song of Ascents.}\par\par\tab Out of the depths have I cried unto thee, O Jehovah.
Let thy tender mercies come unto me, that I may live;\par\tab For thy law is my delight.
And I will delight myself in thy commandments,\par\tab Which I have loved.
I will delight myself in thy statutes:\par\tab I will not forget thy word.\par
The cords of death compassed me,\par\tab And the pains of Sheol gat hold upon me:\par\tab I found trouble and sorrow.
Jesus saith unto them, {\cf6 My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to accomplish his work.
