I chosen have the perfect way of truth and verity: Thy judgments that most righteous are before me laid have I.
From me the wicked way of lies let far removed be; And graciously thy holy law do thou grant unto me.
I of thy testimonies have above all things made choice, To be my heritage for aye; for they my heart rejoice.
My comfort, and my heart's delight, thy testimonies be; And they, in all my doubts and fears, are counsellors to me.
Let thy strong hand make help to me: thy precepts are my choice.
Thy judgments righteous, O Lord, which thou of old forth gave, I did remember, and myself by them comforted have.
His judgments were before me, I his laws put not from me.
Sincere before him was my heart; with him upright was I; And watchfully I kept myself from mine iniquity.
