Thy word is a lamp unto my feet,
and a light unto my path.

Through thy precepts I get understanding:
therefore I hate every false way.

I have not departed from thy judgments:
for thou hast taught me.
How sweet are thy words unto my taste!
yea, sweeter than honey to my mouth!

I understand more than the ancients,
because I keep thy precepts.
I have refrained my feet from every evil way,
that I might keep thy word.

Thou through thy commandments hast made me wiser than mine enemies:
for they are ever with me.
I have more understanding than all my teachers:
for thy testimonies are my meditation.

O how love I thy law!
it is my meditation all the day.

I have seen an end of all perfection:
but thy commandment is exceeding broad.

I am thine, save me;
for I have sought thy precepts.
The wicked have waited for me to destroy me:
but I will consider thy testimonies.

Unless thy law had been my delights,
I should then have perished in mine affliction.
I will never forget thy precepts:
for with them thou hast quickened me.

Thy faithfulness is unto all generations:
thou hast established the earth, and it abideth.
They continue this day according to thine ordinances:
for all are thy servants.
