But for thy law was my thinking; then peradventure I had perished in my lowness.
Tribulation and anguish have found me; thy behests is my thinking.
I shall bethink in thy justifyings; I shall not forget thy words.
For why and thy witnessings is my thinking; and my counsel is thy justifyings.
This comforted me in my lowness; for thy word quickened me.
Thy merciful doings come to me, and I shall live; for thy law is my thinking.
I believe to see the goods of the Lord; in the land of living men.
For whatever things be written, those be written to our teaching, that by patience and comfort of scriptures we have hope.
