  1. Consider how I love thy precepts: quicken me, O LORD, according to thy lovingkindness.

  2. Thy word is true from the beginning: and every one of thy righteous judgments endureth for ever.

  3. Princes have persecuted me without a cause: but my heart standeth in awe of thy word.

  4. I rejoice at thy word, as one that findeth great spoil.

  5. I hate and abhor lying: but thy law do I love.

  6. Seven times a day do I praise thee because of thy righteous judgments.

  7. Great peace have they which love thy law: and nothing shall offend them.

  8. LORD, I have hoped for thy salvation, and done thy commandments.

  9. My soul hath kept thy testimonies; and I love them exceedingly.

  10. I have kept thy precepts and thy testimonies: for all my ways are before thee.

  11. Let my cry come near before thee, O LORD: give me understanding according to thy word.

  12. Let my supplication come before thee: deliver me according to thy word.

  13. My lips shall utter praise, when thou hast taught me thy statutes.

  14. My tongue shall speak of thy word: for all thy commandments are righteousness.

  15. Let thine hand help me; for I have chosen thy precepts.

  16. I have longed for thy salvation, O LORD; and thy law is my delight.

  17. Let my soul live, and it shall praise thee; and let thy judgments help me.
