:Thy word is a lantern unto my feet: and a light unto my paths.
:I have sworn and am steadfastly purposed to keep thy righteous judgements.
:I am troubled above measure: quicken me, O Lord, according to thy word.
:The ungodly have laid a snare for me: but yet I swerved not from thy commandments.
:Thy testimonies have I claimed as mine heritage for ever:
:and why? they are the very joy of my heart.
:Hallelujah
