Unless thy law was my delight I perished in mine affliction.
Straits and distress found me: thy commands my delight
In thy laws I will delight: I will not forget thy word.
Also thy testimonies my delight, the men of my counsel.
This my comfort in mine affliction, for thy word made me alive.
Thy compassion shall come to me and I shall live, for thy law is my delight
Unless I believed to look upon the goodness of Jehovah in the land of the living.
For whatever before was written before are for our instruction was before written that by patience and consolation able of the writings we might have hope.
