95The wicked haue waited for me to destroy me: but I will consider thy testimonies.
96I haue seene an ende of all perfection: but thy commandement is exceeding large.
97MEM. Oh howe loue I thy Lawe! it is my meditation continually.
98By thy commandements thou hast made mee wiser then mine enemies: for they are euer with mee.
99I haue had more vnderstading then all my teachers: for thy testimonies are my meditation.
100I vnderstoode more then the ancient, because I kept thy precepts.
101I haue refrained my feete from euery euil way, that I might keepe thy word.
102I haue not declined from thy iudgements: for thou didest teach me.
103Howe sweete are thy promises vnto my mouth! yea, more then hony vnto my mouth.
104By thy precepts I haue gotten vnderstanding: therefore I hate all the wayes of falshoode.
105NUN. Thy worde is a lanterne vnto my feete, and a light vnto my path.
106I haue sworne and will performe it, that I will keepe thy righteous iudgements.
107I am very sore afflicted: O Lord, quicken me according to thy word.
108O Lord, I beseeche thee accept the free offerings of my mouth, and teach mee thy iudgements.
109My soule is continually in mine hande: yet doe I not forget thy Lawe.
110The wicked haue layed a snare for mee: but I swarued not from thy precepts.
111Thy testimonies haue I taken as an heritage for euer: for they are the ioy of mine heart.
112I haue applied mine heart to fulfill thy statutes alway, euen vnto the ende.
113SAMECH. I hate vaine inuentions: but thy Lawe doe I loue.
114Thou art my refuge and shield, and I trust in thy worde.
115Away from mee, yee wicked: for I will keepe the commandements of my God.
116Stablish me according to thy promise, that I may liue, and disappoint me not of mine hope.
117Stay thou mee, and I shall be safe, and I will delite continually in thy statutes.
118Thou hast troden downe all them that depart from thy statutes: for their deceit is vaine.
119Thou hast taken away all ye wicked of the earth like drosse: therefore I loue thy testimonies.
120My flesh trembleth for feare of thee, and I am afraide of thy iudgements.
121AIN. I haue executed iudgement and iustice: leaue me not to mine oppressours.
122Answere for thy seruant in that, which is good, and let not the proude oppresse me.
123Mine eyes haue failed in waiting for thy saluation, and for thy iust promise.
124Deale with thy seruant according to thy mercie, and teache me thy statutes.
125I am thy seruant: graunt mee therefore vnderstanding, that I may knowe thy testimonies.
126It is time for thee Lord to worke: for they haue destroyed thy Lawe.
127Therefore loue I thy commandements aboue golde, yea, aboue most fine golde.
128Therefore I esteeme all thy precepts most iust, and hate all false wayes.
129PE. Thy testimonies are wonderfull: therefore doeth my soule keepe them.
130The entrance into thy wordes sheweth light, and giueth vnderstanding to the simple.
131I opened my mouth and panted, because I loued thy commandements.
132Looke vpon mee and bee mercifull vnto me, as thou vsest to doe vnto those that loue thy Name.
133Direct my steppes in thy worde, and let none iniquitie haue dominion ouer me.
134Deliuer mee from the oppression of men, and I will keepe thy precepts.
135Shew the light of thy countenance vpon thy seruant, and teache me thy statutes.
136Mine eyes gush out with riuers of water, because they keepe not thy Lawe.
137TSADDI. Righteous art thou, O Lord, and iust are thy iudgements.
138Thou hast commanded iustice by thy testimonies and trueth especially.
