I will run the way of thy commandments, when thou shalt enlarge my
heart.
ה HE.
Teach me, O LORD, the way of thy statutes: and I shall keep it _unto_
the end.
Give me understanding, and I shall keep thy law; yea, I shall observe
it with _my_ whole heart.
Make me to go in the path of thy commandments; for therein do I
delight.
Incline my heart unto thy testimonies, and not to covetousness.
Turn away mine eyes from beholding vanity; _and_ quicken thou me in
thy way.
Stablish thy word unto thy servant, who _is devoted_ to thy fear.
Turn away my reproach which I fear: for thy judgments _are_ good.
Behold I have longed after thy precepts: quicken me in thy
righteousness.
ו VAU.
Let thy mercies come also unto me, O LORD, _even_ thy salvation,
according to thy word.
So shall I have wherewith to answer him that reproacheth me: for I
trust in thy word.
And take not the word of truth utterly out of my mouth; for I have
hoped in thy judgments.
So shall I keep thy law continually for ever and ever.
And I will walk at liberty: for I seek thy precepts.
I will speak of thy testimonies also before kings, and will not be
ashamed.
And I will delight myself in thy commandments, which I have loved.
My hands also will I lift up unto thy commandments which I have loved;
and I will meditate in thy statutes.
ז ZAIN.
Remember the word unto thy servant, upon which thou hast caused me to
hope.
This _is_ my comfort in my affliction: for thy word hath quickened me.
The proud have had me greatly in derision: _yet_ have I not declined
from thy law.
