That they his statutes might observe according to his word; And that they might his laws obey. Give praise unto the Lord.
To all men I have judgment done, performing justice right; Then let me not be left unto my fierce oppressors' might.
Concerning all things thy commands all right I judge therefore; And ev'ry false and wicked way I perfectly abhor.
Trouble and anguish have me found, and taken hold on me: Yet in my trouble my delight thy just commandments be.
Upon thy statutes my delight shall constantly be set: And, by thy grace, I never will thy holy word forget.
My comfort, and my heart's delight, thy testimonies be; And they, in all my doubts and fears, are counsellors to me.
Unless in thy most perfect law my soul delights had found, I should have perished, when as my troubles did abound.
The words of God are words most pure; they be like silver try'd In earthen furnace, seven times that hath been purify'd.
O Lord my God, consider well, and answer to me make: Mine eyes enlighten, lest the sleep of death me overtake:
To do thy will I take delight, O thou my God that art; Yea, that most holy law of thine I have within my heart.
Thy testimonies ev'ry one in faithfulness excel; And holiness for ever, Lord, thine house becometh well.
