Thy testimonies also are my delight And my counsellors. ד DALETH
This is my comfort in my affliction: For thy word hath quickened me.
Let thy tender mercies come unto me, that I may live: For thy law is my delight.
I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD In the land of the living.
For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that through patience and through comfort of the scriptures we might have hope.
