Psalm 119:111

Psalms of David in Metre 1650 (Scottish Psalter)

I of thy testimonies have above all things made choice, To be my heritage for aye; for they my heart rejoice.

See the chapter Copy

I long'd for thy salvation, Lord, and in thy law rejoice.

Unless in thy most perfect law my soul delights had found, I should have perished, when as my troubles did abound.

God is of mine inheritance and cup the portion; The lot that fallen is to me thou dost maintain alone.

Therefore thy precepts more I love than gold, yea, gold most fine.

So who thee fear shall joy to see me trusting in thy word.

The statutes of the Lord are right, and do rejoice the heart: The Lord's command is pure, and doth light to the eyes impart.

More joy thy testimonies' way than riches all me gave.

I at thy word rejoice, as one of spoil that finds great store.

Unspotted is the fear of God, and doth endure for ever: The judgments of the Lord are true and righteous altogether.
