Psalm 119:5

Psalms of David in Metre 1650 (Scottish Psalter)

O that thy statutes to observe thou would'st my ways direct!

See the chapter Copy

Create a clean heart, Lord, renew a right sp'rit me within.

My heart unto thy testimonies, and not to greed, incline.

I'll run thy precepts' way, when thou my heart enlarged hast.

Let thy strong hand make help to me: thy precepts are my choice.

See how I love thy law! as thou art kind, me quicken, Lord.

My mouth I have wide opened, and panted earnestly, While after thy commandements I long'd exceedingly.
