I have laid up thy word in my heart, that I might not sin against thee.

My eyes are awake before the watches of the night, that I may meditate upon thy promise.

Thy testimonies are my delight, they are my counselors.

Thy statutes have been my songs in the house of my pilgrimage.

How can a young man keep his way pure? By guarding it according to thy word.

Oh, how I love thy law! It is my meditation all the day.

With regard to the works of men, by the word of thy lips I have avoided the ways of the violent.

I am not afraid of ten thousands of people who have set themselves against me round about.

Oh send out thy light and thy truth; let them lead me, let them bring me to thy holy hill and to thy dwelling!

discretion will watch over you; understanding will guard you;
