Unless thy law had been my delight, I should then have perished in mine affliction. I will never forget thy precepts; for by them thou hast quickened me. I am thine, save me; for I have sought thy precepts. The wicked have awaited me to destroy me; but I attend unto thy testimonies. I have seen an end of all perfection: thy commandment is exceeding broad. MEM. Oh how I love thy law! it is my meditation all the day. Thy commandments make 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. I understand more than the aged, because I have observed thy precepts. I have refrained my feet from every evil path, that I might keep thy word.

From thy precepts I get understanding; therefore I hate every false path.
