I rejoice at thy word,
as one that findeth great spoil.
I hate and abhor lying:
but thy law do I love.

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

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

I beheld the transgressors, and was grieved;
because they kept not thy word.
Consider how I love thy precepts:
quicken me,
O LORD, according to thy lovingkindness.

Great are thy tender mercies, O LORD:
quicken me according to thy judgments.
Many are my persecutors and mine enemies;
yet do I not decline from thy testimonies.

Plead my cause, and deliver me:
quicken me according to thy word.
Salvation is far from the wicked:
for they seek not thy statutes.

Consider mine affliction, and deliver me:
for I do not forget thy law.

Concerning thy testimonies, I have known of old
that thou hast founded them for ever.

They draw nigh that follow after mischief:
they are far from thy law.
Thou art near, O LORD;
and all thy commandments are truth.

Mine eyes prevent the night watches,
that I might meditate in thy word.
Hear my voice according unto thy lovingkindness:
O LORD, quicken me according to thy judgment.
