Your word is a lantern to my feet and a light upon my path.

I have sworn and am steadfastly purposed to keep your righteous judgments.

I am troubled above measure; revive me, O Lord, according to your word.

Let the freewill offerings of my mouth please you, O Lord; and teach me your judgments.

My life is always in my hand, yet I do not forget your law.

The ungodly have laid a snare for me, yet I have not strayed from your commandments.

Your testimonies have I claimed as my heritage for ever, and why? They are the very joy of my heart.

I have applied my heart to fulfill your statutes always, even unto the end.

I hate those who are double-minded, but your law do I love.

You are my defense and shield, and my trust is in your word.

Away from me, you wicked. I will keep the commandments of my God.

Establish me according to your word, that I may live, and let me not be disappointed in my hope.

Hold me up, and I shall be safe; indeed, my delight shall be ever in your statutes.

You have trodden down all those who depart from your statutes, for they only imagine deceit.

You put away all the ungodly of the earth like dross; therefore I love your testimonies.

My flesh trembles for fear of you, and I am afraid of your judgments.

I have done that which is lawful and right; O give me not over to my oppressors.

Be surety for your servant’s good; O let not the arrogant oppress me.

My eyes have wasted away with looking for your salvation, and for the word of your righteousness.

O deal with your servant according to your loving mercy, and teach me your statutes.

I am your servant; O grant me understanding, that I may know your testimonies.

It is time for you, O Lord, to act, for they have broken your law.

For I love your commandments above all things, more than gold and precious stones.

Therefore I hold all your commandments to be right, and all false ways I utterly abhor.
