Let my cry come before you, O LORD; give me understanding according to your word! Let my plea come before you; deliver me according to your word. My lips will pour forth praise, for you teach me your statutes. My tongue will sing of your word, for all your commandments are right. Let your hand be ready to help me, for I have chosen your precepts. I long for your salvation, O LORD, and your law is my delight. Let my soul live and praise you, and let your rules help me. I have gone astray like a lost sheep; seek your servant, for I do not forget your commandments.
Your Word, O, Lord, a lamp to my feet and a guide to my path,.
Your Word, O, Lord, a psalter of praise and thanksgiving.
Your Word, O, Lord, a table set before me in the presence of my enemies.
Your Word, O, Lord, a shield about me and a two-edged sword in my hands.
Your Word, O, Lord, a refuge from the assaults of the Evil One.
Your Word, O, Lord, a place of righteousness, peace and joy.
Your Word, O, Lord, a precious gift to Your people.
Praise You, my Lord and Master.
