The Psalms, Hymns, and Spiritual Songs of the Old and New-Testament
(A Psalm) of David*
Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: With all mine heart I'll Yhee confess Lyrics: 1 With all mine heart I'll thee confess,
Praise thee the gods before.
2 The temple of thine holiness,
Towards it I'll adore.
I'll for thy mercy praise thy name,
And for thy verity:
Because thou over ail thy name,
Thy word dost magnify,
3 Thou in the day didst answer when
I cried unto thee;
With strength within my soul thou then
Didst also strengthen me.
4 All kings of th* earth thee, Lord, shall praise,
When thy mouth's words they hear.
5 They shall sing in Jehovah's ways,
For great's HIS glory there.
6 Albeit that the Lord be high,
Yet he respects the low:
But as for them who lofty be,
He them far off doth know.
7 Altho' I walk amidst distress,
Thee quickning me I have:
Thine hands shall my foes wrath suppress,
And thy right hand me save.
8 The Lord will perfect what's for me,
Thy mercy Lord aye stands.
O do not those forsake who be
The works of thine own hands. Scripture: Psalm 138
(A Psalm) of David*
A Psalm of David
Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: With expectation for the Lord Lyrics: 1 With expectation for the Lord,
I waited patiently;
And he inclined unto me,
He also heard my cry.
2 He brought me from the dreadful pit,
Out of the miry clay;
And on a rock he set my feet,
He stablished my way.
3 A new song put he in my mouth,
Our God's praise to record;
Which many shall behold and fear,
And trust upon the Lord.
4 Blest is the Man that on the Lord
doth make his trust abide:
Nor doth the proud respect, nor such
To lies as turn aside.
[2]
5 O thou Jehovah, thou my God,
Hast many wonders wrought;
And likewise towards us thou hast
Conceiv'd many a thought.
their sum cannot be reckon'd up
In order unto thee;
would I declare and speak of them,
Beyond account they be.
6 Thou sacrifice and offering
Didst not at all desire,
Thou boar'st mine ear, no sin off'ring,
Nor burnt one dost require.
7 Then said I, lo I come: it's writ
I' th' books roll thus of me,
8 To do thy will my god I joy,
Thy laws in my heart be.
9 Within the congregation great,
Thy righteousness I shew;
Lo I have not refrain'd my lips,
Jehovah thou dost know.
10 I have not hid thy righteousness
Within my heart alone;
I have declar'd thy faithfulness,
And thy salvation
I have not from th' assembly great
Thy grace and truth conceal'd.
11 Let not thy tender mercies be
From me O Lord with-held:
Let both thy kindness and thy truth
keep me my life throughout,
12 Because innumerable ills
Have compass'd me about.
My sins have caught me, so that I
Not able am to see;
More are they than hairs of mine head,
Therefore my heart fails me.
[3]
13 Be pleas'd, Lord, to deliver me;
To help me, Lord, make haste.
14 At once abash'd and sham'd let be,
Who seek my soul to waste
15 Let them be driven back and sham'd
That wish me misery:
Let them be waste to quit their shame,
That say to me, fy, fy.
16 Let all be glad and joy in thee
That seek thee, let them say,
Who thy salvation love, the Lord
Be magify'd alway.
17 I poor and needy am, on me
The Lord yet care doth take:
My help and my deliverer thou,
My God no tarrying make.
Scripture: Psalm 40
A Psalm of David
God's goodness to Travellers
Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: With thanks unto the Lord confess Lyrics: 1 With thanks unto the Lord confess,
Because that good is he;
Because his loving kindnesses
Lasts to eternity.
2 So say the Lord's redeem'd whom bought
He hath from enemies hands;
3 And from the east and west hath brought
From south and northern lands.
4 In desart stray'd, in desart way
No dwelling town they find.
5 They hungry were, and thirsty they,
Their souls within them pin'd.
6 Then did they to Jehovah cry
When they were in distress;
Who did them set at liberty
Out of their anguishes.
7 In such a way as was most right,
He led them forth also;
That to a ciiy where they might
Inhabit they might go.
8 O that men praise Jehovah would
For his great goodness then;
And for his wonders manifold
Unto the sons of men.
9 For he the soul that longing lies,
Doth th'roughly satisfy;
The hungry soul he fills likewise
With good abundantly.
[2]
10 Such as in darkness and within
The shade of death abide:
They who are sore afflictions in,
And fast in irons ty'd.
11 Because they in rebellion,
Against God's word did rise:
They also of the highest One
The counsel did despise.
12 Therefore with sore affliction
He did bring down their heart:
Down did they fall, and there was none
Could help to them impart.
13 Then did they to Jehovah cry,
When they were in distress?
Who did them set at liberty
Out of their anguishes.
14 He did them out of darkness bring,
Also from shade of death:
As for the bands that they were in,
He them quite broken hath.
15 O that men praise Jehovah would
For his great goodness then:
And for his wonders manifold
Unto the sons of men!
16 For he did into shivers shake
The gates that were of brass:
And he the bar asunder brake
That made of iron was.
[3] To the Sick
17 Fools do for their iniquities
And sins, affliction bear.
18 Their soul abhors all meat likewise
They to death's gate draw near.
19 Then they unto Jehovah cry,
When they are in distress;
Who setteth them at liberty,
Out of their anguishes.
29 He did send out his word, and he
Unto them healing gave:
From out of their destruction free
He likewise did them save.
21 Oh that men praise Jehovah would
For his great goodness then:
And for his wonders manifold
Unto the sons of men!
22 And of thanksgiving sacrifice
Let them their offerings bring:
While they his works declare likewise
Let them for gladness sing.
[4] To the Seafaring.
23 Who go to sea in ships, their acts
In waters great who do:
24 These do behold Jehovah's facts,
In deeps his wonders too.
25 For he commanded instantly
The stormy wind doth rise
Which lifts the waves thereof on high,
They mount up to the skies.
26 Down to the depths again they strike,
Their soul doth melt with ill.
27 They reel and stagger drunkard like,
And fail them doth their skill.
28 Then do they to Jehovah cry,
In their extream distress:
And he them bringeth speedily
Out of their anguishes.
29 He makes the storm a calm, that so
The waves thereof are quiet;
30 They're glad with rest, he brings them to
The haven they desir'd.
31 Oh that men praise Jehovah would
For his great goodness then,
And for his wonders manifold
Unto the sons of men.
32 Within the congregation great
Him let them highly praise:
[5] To Planters
33 He turns streams to a desart land:
To drought the springing well.
34 To barrenness a fruitful land
For their sins there who dwell.
35 He makes the wilderness a pool
Dry ground turns to a spring.
36 Seats there the hungry where they build
Their town of habiting.
37 They vineyards there do plant and dress
They likewise sow their fields:
Which unto them their fruitfulness
With much revenue yields.
38 Yea so he blessed them that they
Did greatly multiply
Nor yet their cattle suffer'd he
To lessen or decay.
39 Again they are diminished,
And also bowed down;
By tyranny impov'rished,
And by affliction.
40 On princes pour contempt doth he,
And causeth them to stray:
Where solitary desarts be,
Wherein there is no way.
41 But from affliction he on high
The needy makes to rise;
And like a flock doth multiply
And make him families,
42 The righteous ones behold it shall
And they shall joyful be;
And bridle up their mouth shall all
That work iniquity.
43 Whoso is wise and will with care
These things observing learn:
Jehovah's mercies what they are,
They clearly shall discern.
Scripture: Psalm 107
God's goodness to Travellers
All blest are men upright of way
Hymnal: PHSS1742 #PCXIXa (1742) Lyrics: A
1 All blest are men upright of way,
Walk in Jehovah's law who do.
2 Who keep his records, blest are they,
With all their heart, who seek him too.
3 And that work no iniquity,
But in his ways do walk indeed.
4 Thou charged hast attentively
Unto thy precepts to give heed.
5 O that my ways thou would'st direct
To keep thy statutes heedfully.
6 When I all thy commands respect,
Then be ashamed shall not I.
7 When thy just judgments I shall know
With hearts uprightness I'll thee praise.
8 Me utterly forsake not thou.
I will observe thy statute-ways.
[2] B
9 By what may youth redress his way?
Thy word by heeding thereunto.
10 I sought thee with whole heart, me stray
Therefore let not thy precepts fro.
11 Thy word I hid within my heart,
That sin I might not against thee.
12 O thou Jehovah blessed art,
Thy statutes therefore teach thou me.
13 I with my lips did forth display
The judgments of thy mouth, ev'n all
14 I in thy testimonies way
Rejoyce more than in riches all.
15 I'll in thy precepts meditate,
And have respect unto thy ways.
16 Me in thy laws I'll recreate,
And not forget what thy word says.
[3] C
17 Confer this grace thy servant to,
That I may live thy word to keep,
18 Unveil mine eyes that I may see
Out of thy law the wonders deep.
19 On earth I am a sojourner;
Hide not thy laws therefore me fro.
20 My soul is broken with desire
In seasons all thy judgments to.
21 Thou hast rebuk'd the proud, the same
Are curst who from thy statutes swerve.
22 Roll off from me reproach and shame
For I thy records do observe.
23 Ev'n princes sat, and 'gainst me spake,
But on thy laws thy servant mus'd.
24 Thy records for my joy I take,
And them men of my counsel us'd.
[4] D
25 Down to the dust my soul cleaves fast,
O quicken me after thy word,
26 I shew'd my ways, thou heard me hast,
Thy statutes learning me afford.
27 Make me to know thy precepts way;
So I'll muse on thy wondrous ways:
28 My soul with grief doth melt away
According to thy word me raise.
29 The way of lying from me take,
And thy law grant me graciously.
30 The way of truth my choice I make,
Thy laws before me laid have 1.
31 Thy records I do closely heed:
O Lord, on me shame do not cast.
32 I'll run thy precepts way with speed,
When thou my heart enlarged hast.
[5] E
33 Enform me Lord, in thy laws ways,
And I will keep it to the end.
34 Light give me and I'll keep thy law,
Yea, it with all my heart attend.
35 In thy laws path make me to go,
Because that I delight therein
36 My heart unto thy records bow,
And bow it not to coveting.
37 From vain fights turn away mine eyes,
And in thy way revive thou me.
38 Unto thy servant ratify
Thy word, who stands in awe of thee.
39 The slander which I fear remove:
Because thy judgments good they be.
40 Lo for thy laws I longing love:
O in thy justice quicken me.
[6] F
41 Find me, Lord, let thy mercies all,
After thy words salvation too.
42 So I my scorners answer shall,
Because thy word I trust unto
43 Truth's words my mouth quite take not fro
Because ( on thy judgments stay.
44 And I continually shall so,
Thy laws keep to perpetual aye.
45 Yea I will walk at liberty
Because I do thy precepts seek.
46 Nor will before kings blush when I
Shall of thy testimonies speak.
47 Also my self in thy commands
Which I have lov'd, delight I will.
48 And to thy precepts dear my hands
Lift up, and mind thy precepts still.
[7] G
49 Good to thy servant make thy word,
On which to hope thou didst me give,
50 In grief this did me joy afford,
Because thy word doth make me live.
51 The proud have much derided me,
Yet have I not thy law declin'd
52 Thy judgments Lord of old that be,
I did recall and comfort find.
53 Me caught hath dreadful trembling.
For wicked men thy laws forsake.
54 I in my house of my wandering,
My songs did of thy statutes make.
55 O Lord, thy name I mind by night,
And kept with care thy laws have I.
56 This had I, for 1 kept arignt
Thy precepts very heedfully.
[8] H
57 He ev'n the Lord is my choice part,
I said that I will keep thy word.
58 Thy favour beg'd with all my heart,
Thy promis'd mercies me afford.
59 When as I thought upon my ways
I turn'd my feet thy records to
60 I hasted and made no delays,
To keep with heed thy statutes so.
61 The bands of wicked men robb'd me,
Yet did I not forget thy laws.
62 I'll rise at midnight to praise thee,
Thy righteous judgments are the caufs.
63 Companion to them all am I
That fear thee, and thy laws keep too,
64 Tj' earth's full cf thy benignity;
O Lord, thy statutes let me know.
[9] J
65 Jehovah with thy servant thou
After thy word right well hast done.
66 Good taste and knowledge teach me now.
For I believe thy precepts on.
67 I stray'd e'er thou didst me chastise:
But I thy word observ'd have now.
68 Thou art good, good thou dost likewise
Thy statutes cause thou me to know,
69 The proud against me lies do raise,
Thy laws I'll keep with my heart's might.
70 The heart of them is fat as grease;
But in thy laws I do delight.
71 It's good for me I was chastis'd,
That so thy statutes learn I should.
72 Laws of thy mouth I more have priz'd,
Than siver thousands of and gold.
[10] K
73 Knowledge me give, to keep thy law:
Thy hands me formed have and made.
74 Who fear thee, me shall see and joy:
For hope I in thy word have had.
75 Thy judgments Lord are just I know
And faithfully thou chastendst me.
76 As thou hail spoke thy servant to,
Now let thy grace my comfort be.
77 Send me thy grace that live may I,
For as my joy thy law I chuse.
78 Shame proud ones that me wrongfully
Do harm, who on thy precepts muse,
79 Let them that fear thee turn to me,
And such as have thy records known.
80 Sound in thy laws my heart let be,
That so I shame may suffer mone.
[11] L
81 Look for thy word I do, likewise
My soul doth faint for help from thee.
82 And for thy word have fail'd mine eyes:
I said when wilt thou comfort me?
83 I like a smoke-dry'd bottle am,
Yet do I not thy laws forego.
84 What are thy servants days? O when
Wilt judgment on thy troublers do?
85 The proud have digged pits for me
Which do not to thy precepts suit.
86 All thy laws faithful are: Help me
Whom wrongfully they persecute.
87 On earth they almost did me waste,
But I thy laws did not forsake.
88 The law of thy mouth to hold fast
Me in thy mercy lively make.
[12] M
89 Made fast thy word in heaven is
O Lord for ever to endure
90 From age to age thy faithfulness:
Thou form'd the earth, and it stands sure.
91 They stand as thou didst set them right,
For all are servants thee unto
92 Had not thy law been my delight,
Then had I perish'd in my wo .
93 Thy precepts ne'er forget will I,
Because by them thou quicknedst me.
94 Thine own am I, save me, for why?
I sought thy precepts studiously.
95 The wicked watch, me to destroy,
But I thy testimonies mind.
96 Of ail perfection end I see,
But very large thy law I find.
[13] N
97 Now O how much thy law I prize?
It is my study all the day.
98 Thou than my foes mad'st me more wise,
By thy law, for it's with me aye.
99 More than my teachers all I know,
Because thy laws my study are.
100 I know more than the ancients do,
Because I keep thy laws with care.
101 From each ill path my feet I stay,
That so I may thy word observe.
102 Because thou hast me taught the way,
I did not from thy judgments swerve.
103 Thy words are to my taste how sweet!
More to my mouth than honey they.
104 I from thy precepts wisdom get,
I therefore hate each lying way.
[14] O
105 Of my feet is the lamp thy word,
And to my path the shining light.
106 I sware, and to perform accord,
That I will keep thy judgments right.
107 I am afflicted very sore.
Lord, quicken me after thy word.
108 My mouth's free off'ring own therefore,
And me thy judgments teach O Lord,
109 My soul is in my hand alway,
But I have not thy law forgot.
110 Vile men for me a snare did lay,
Yet from thy precepts stray'd I not.
111 Thy records I inherit do
For aye, for my heart's joy they be.
112 My heart to do thy laws I bow,
To th' end ev'n to eternity.
[15] P
113 Pursue vain thoughts with hate I do,
But dearly love thy law do I.
114 My covert and my shield art thou,
I on thy word wait hopefully.
115 Depart from me vile men that I
May keep my God's commandments just.
116 By thy word stay me, live shall I:
Nor shame me for my hopeful trust.
117 I shall be safe if thou me stay,
And still with joy thy laws I'll eye.
118 Thou tread'st down from thy laws who stray,
For their deceit is vanity.
119 Earth's lewd like dross thou put'st away,
Thy laws I dearly love therefore.
120 My flesh doth quake for fear of thee,
And I do dread thy judgments sore.
[16] Q
121 Quite to oppressors leave not me.
I judgment do and righteousness.
122 For good thy servant's surety be,
Let not the proud ones me oppress.
123 Mine eyes for thy salvation fail,
As also for thy righteous word.
124 In mercy with thy servant deal,
And thy laws learning me afford.
125 I am thy servant make me wise,
Thy testimonies for to know.
126 Time for thee Lord to work it is;
For men thy law do overthrow.
127 Therefore do I thy precepts love
Above gold, yea the finest gold.
128 All false ways hate I, for above
All things thy laws most right I hold.
[17] R
129 Right wondrous, Lord, thy records be
Therefore my soul keeps them with care,
130 Light thy words entrance gives to me,
Them prudent makes that simple are.
131 With open mouth I panted for
Thy laws, I longed for the same;
132 Look on me, and such grace confer
As thou on them that love thy name.
133 Guide by thy words my steps, and let
No wickedness bear rule in me.
134 From men's oppression free me set,
And keeper of thy laws I'll be.
135 Thy face let on thy servant shine,
And me to learn thy statutes cause.
136 For water floods flow from mine eyes
Because men do not keep thy laws.
[18] S
137 Sincerely just art thou O Lord,
Thy judgments upright are also.
138 The precepts which thou dost record
Are right; yet very faithful too.
139 My zeal consumed me, for why?
Mine enemies thy word forget,
140 Thy word is pure exceedingly,
Therefore thy servant loveth it.
141 Small am I and despis'd therefore'
Let thy commands forget not I.
142 Thy justice is for evermore
The same, thy law is verity.
143 On me seiz'd anguish and distress,
Yet thy commands delight me give
144 Aye lasts thy records righteousness;
Make thou me wise, and I shall live.
[19] T
145 To thee with all my heart I cry
Lord hear me, keep thy laws I will
146 I cry'd to thee, save me that I
May keep thy testimonies still.
147 The dawning I prevent and cry:
I for thy word do hopeful wait.
148 Mine eyes prevent the watch, that I
Upon thy word may meditate.
149 My voice Lord of thy mercy hear,
After thy judgments quicken me.
150 Who follow mischief they draw near,
And from thy law far off they be.
151 But O Jehovah near art thou
And all thy precepts verity.
152 I long since of thy records knew:
Thou sett'st them for eternity.
[20] V
153 View mine affliction, and me free:
For I thy law do not forget.
154 Plead thou my cause, and ransom me:
For thy word's sake alive me set.
155 From vile men in salvation far,
Since they do for thy laws ne'er strive:
156 Thy tender mercies Lord great are;
After thy judgments me revive.
157 Great my pursuing enemies:
Yet nothing from thy laws I swerve.
158 I sinners saw, was griev'd likewise,
For they thy word do not obfsrve.
159 See Lord, thy precepts love do I:
Grant of thy grace that live I may.
160 Thy word, from first, is verity,
And all thy judgments right for aye.
[21] W
161 Without cause princes do me wound,
But of thy word my heart's in awe,
162 As one that plenteous spoii hath found,
So I rejoice do in thy law.
163 I lying hate and do abhor,
But dearly love thy law do I.
164 Sev'n times a day I praise thee, for
The judgments of thy equity.
165 Who love thy law, great peace have they,
And such shall find no stumbling stone.
166 Lord, I for thy salvation stay;
And thy commandments I have done.
167 My soul thy testaments doth keep,
And them abundantly love I.
168 Thy records and thy laws I keep,
For all my ways before thee lie.
[22] Y
160 Yield Lord my cry t' approach thy face
X As thou haft spoke, me prudent make
170 To thee let my request for grace
Approach: free me for thy word's sake.
171 My lips shall utter praise when thou
Thy statutes hast made known to me.
172 And forth thy word my tongue shall show,
For all thy precepts righteous be.
173 To help me let thy hand be near,
For thy commandment chose have I.
174 I long for thy salvation dear,
Lord, and my joys in thy law lie.
175 Let my soul live to shew thy praise,
And let thy judgments give me aid.
176 Because I have not left thy laws
Thy servant seek like lost sheep stray'd.

Thy precepts with much care.

Hide not thy laws me fro.
20 My soul is broken with desire
All times thy judgments to.
21 The proud accurst rebuk'd thou hast,
Who from thy precepts swerve.
22 Reproach and scorn far from me cast,
For I thy laws observe.
23 Against me princes sat, and spake,
But on thy laws I mus'd.
24 Me glad thy testimonies make,
My couns'lers I them us'd.
[4] Daleth
25 Down to the dust my soul cleaves fast
Revive me by thy word.

Teach me thy statutes Lord.
27 Learn me thy precepts way, and I
Thy wonders will record.
28 My soul with grief doth melt away;
Me strengthen by thy word.
29 From me the way of lying take,
Thy law give graciously.
30 The way of truth my choice I make,
Thy laws before me lay.

To shame Lord put not me.

When thou my heart sett'st free.

And mind thy statutes still.
[7] Zain
49 So to thy servant mind the word
On which thou mad'st me rest.

This glads me when distress'd.

Not from thy laws declin'd.
52 Lord, I refresh'd my self when I
Thy judgments old did mind.
53 Horror takes hold on me, because
Vile men thy law forsake.
54 My song thy statutes in my house
Of pilgrimage I make.
55 O Lord thy name I mind by night,
And kept thy law have I.
56 This I obtained, for I kept right
Thy precepts carefully.
[8] Cheth
57 Choice portion mine, O Lord thou art,
I said I'll keep thy word
58 I beg'd thy favour with whole heart,
Grace promis'd me afford.
59 I turn'd my feet thy records to,
In thinking on my ways.
60 I hastned, and thy laws to do
I did not make delays.
61 The bands of wicked men rob'd me
Yet left I not thy laws.
62 I'll rise at midnight to praise thee,
Thy judgments just because.
63 All who thee fear, and keep thy word,
Companion theirs am I.
64 Teach me thy laws, for earth's full, Lord,
Of thy benignity.
[9] Teth
65 To me thy servant, Lord, thou hast
After thy word well done.
66 Teach thou me knowledge and good taste,
For I thy laws trust on.
67 I stray'd before I was chastis'd,
Thy word yet keep I now.
68 Thou art good, good thou dost likewise,
Thy statutes make me know.
69 The proud against me forged lies;
Thy laws I'll keep with might.
70 Their heart is fat become as grease,
Thy law is my delight.
71 That so I might thy statutes learn,
"Tis good I was chaitis'd.
72 Thy mouth's law above thousands I
Of gold and silver priz'd.
[10] Jod
73 I by thy hands am made and form'd
Teach me thy laws to know.
74 Who fear thee joy when they me see,
For I thy word trust to
75 Thy judgments righteous are I know,
Thou right afflict'st me, Lord.
76 Thy grace let chear thy servant now,
According to thy word.
77 Send me thy grace, that I may live;
Thy law my joy I chuse.
78 Shame proud ones, who me causeless wrong,
I'll on thy precepts muse.
79 Who fear thee and thy records know,
Let them turn unto me.
80 Sound let my heart be in thy law,
That sham'd I may not be.
[11] Caph
82 Cast down my soul is for thy health;
But on thy word I stay.
82 Mine eyes fail for thy word, when wilt
Thou comfort me I say?
83 Thy law forget not I; altho'
A bottle smoak'd I'm like.
84 What are thy servants days? when thou
Wilt my pursuers strike?
85 The proud have digged pits for me
Which do not thy law suit.
86 Truth all thy laws are, help, for me
They causeless persecute.
87 Tho' they me nigh condum'd on earth,
Thy laws forsake not I.
88 To keep the records of thy mouth,
Let thy grace quicken me.
[12] Lamed
89 Lord, aye thy word in heaven stands
Thy truth for aye doth last.
90 Earth stablifh'd is by thy command,
And still it standeth fast.
91 They stand this day as thou ordain'st
For all thy servants be.
92 Were not thy law my joy, I'd fail'd
In my adversity.
93 I'll not forget thy laws, whereby
Thou life in me hast wrought.
94 I am thine own, O save thou me.
For I thy records sought.
95 The wicked watch me, me to stay;
But I thy precepts mind.
96 Of all perfection end I see:
Thy law most large I find.
[13] Mem
97 Most wond'rously I love thy law,
My muse its all the day.
98 More wise thou mad'st me than my foes
For thy law's with me aye.
99 More know I than my teachers, for
My muse thy records are.
100 More wile than th' ancients I'm because
Thy laws 1 keep with care.
101 My feet I draw from each ill way,
That keep thy word I might.
102 Mov'd frcm thy judgments have not I,
For thou me taught'st aright.
103 Most sweet I taste thy words, more to
My mouth than honey they:
104 Much skill I get thy precepts thro',
Thence hate I each false wau
[14] Nun
1055 Now to my feet thy word's a lamp,
And to my path a light.
106 Sworn have I, and will it perform,
To keep thy judgments right.
107 I'm sore distress'd, Lord quicken me
According to thy word.
108 My mouth's free ofF'ring own, I pray
Teach me thy judgments, Lord.
109 My soul's still in my hand: yet I
Have not thy laws forgot.
110 The vile laid snares for me; yet from
Thy precepts err'd I not;
111 Thy records ever I possess,
For glad my heart they do.
112 I bent my heart to do thy law,
Always the end unto.
[15] Sameth
113 Such thoughts as wav'ring are I hate,
But love thy law do I.
114 My hiding place and shield thou art,
I on thy word rely.
115 Depart from me lewd men, for keep
My God's commands I must.
116 Support me by thy word to live:
Me shame not of my trust.
117 Stay me, I shall be safe, and aye,
With joy thy laws I'll eye.
118 Thou tread'st down from thy laws who stray,
For their deceit's a lie.
119 Earth's lewd ones off as dross thou throw'st,
Thy laws I love therefore,
120 My flesh doth quake for fear of thee:
I dread thy judgments fore.
[16] Ayn
121 I Judgment do and right, leave me
To none who me distress:
122 Be surety for thy servants good,
Lest proud ones me oppress.
123 Mine eyes for thy salvation fail.
For thy just word also.
124 In mercy with thy servant deal,
Thy statutes make me know.
125 To me thy servant skill afford:
Thy records for to know.
126 It's time for thee to work, O Lord,
For men thy law o'erthrow.
127 Therefore thy laws I love much more
Than gold, yea finest gold.
128 All false ways hate I, therefore all
Thy laws all right I hold.
[17] Phe
129 For that thy, records wondrous be
My soul them keeps with care.
130 The entrance of thy words gives light,
Makes wise who simple are.
131 My mouth I open'd, and did pant
In longing for thy law.
1132 As thou dost those who love thy name,
See me, and mercy show.
133 My steps guide by thy word, o'er me
O let not sin bear sway.
13A From man's oppression set me free,
So I'll thy laws obey.
135 Thy face let on thy servant shine,
Thy laws to learn me cause.
136 The water-floods flow from mine eyes,
For men keep not thy laws.
[18] Tsaddi
137 Thou Lord art righteous, and upright
Thy judgments are also.
138 The records thou command'st are right,
And very faithful too.
339 My zeal consumed me because
Thy words my foes forget.
140 Thy word's moll pure: therefore thereon
Thy servant's love is set.
141 Small I and flighted am: thy laws
Forget yet do not I.
142 Thy justice is the same for aye,
And thy laws verity.
143 Distress and anguish on me seiz'd,
Thy laws my joys yet be.
144 Thy righteous records last for aye,
That I may live, teach me.
[19] Coph
145 Cry'd with whole heart I have, hear me,
Lord keep thy laws I will.
146 1 cried have to thee, save me,
And I'll thy laws fulfil:
147 The dawning I prevent and cry,
Thy word 1 hoped on.
148 Mine eyes prevent the watch, that I
Might muse thy word upon.
149 As thou art kind, my voice, Lord, hear,
As just, so quicken me.
150 Who follow mischief they draw near,
Far from thy law they be.
151 Jehovah thou art near, and all,
Thy precepts truth are they.
152 I of thy records knew of old,
Thou didst them found for aye.
[20] Resh
153 Regard my trouble, and me free,
For I thy law record.
154 Plead thou my cause, deliver me,
Revive me by thy word.
166 Salvation's from the wicked far,
For thy laws seek not they.
156 Great are thy mercies, Lord, revive
Me in thy judgments way.
157 My troubles many and my foes ;
Nought from thy laws I stept.
158 I sinners saw,and griev'd because
Thy word they have not kept.
159 See how I love thy precepts, Lord,
Revve me by thy grace.
160 Thy word from first is truth, and all
Thy judgments just always.
[21] Shin
161 Strong princes causeless me pursue,
Thy word yet awes my mind.
162 Yea, in thy word I joy as one
That doth great riches find.
163 I lying hate, and do abhor,
But love thy law most dear.
164 Sev'n times a day I praise thee, for
Thy judgments just which are.
165 Great peace have they who love thy law,
And stumbhng-block have none.
166 Lord, I for thy salvation hope,
And thy commands have done.
167 My soul thy testimonies keeps,
My love to them is dear.
168 Thy rules and laws I kept, for all
My ways before thee are.
[22] Thau
169 To thee, Lord, let my cry come near,
Wise by thy word make me.
170 Thee let my humble suit approach,
Me by thy word set free.
171 Thy statutes when thou hast me taught,
My lips praise utter shall.
172 Thy word my tongue shall forth resound,
For just thy laws are all.
173 Thy precepts since I chosen have;
O help me by thy might.
174 Thy saving health I long for Lord,
Thy law is my delight.
175 Thy praise to show let my soul live,
Thy judgments help me let
176 Thy servant seek like lost sheep stray'd,
Thy laws Til not forget.
