 ²⁷Make me to understand the way of thy precepts: so shall I talk of thy wondrous works.

 ²⁸My soul melteth for heaviness: strengthen thou me according unto thy word.

 ⁴³And take not the word of truth utterly out of my mouth; for I have hoped in thy judgments.

 ⁴⁴So shall I keep thy law continually for ever and ever.

 ⁴⁵And I will walk at liberty: for I seek thy precepts.

 ⁴⁶I will speak of thy testimonies also before kings, and will not be ashamed.

 ⁴⁷And I will delight myself in thy commandments, which I have loved.

 ⁴⁸My hands also will I lift up unto thy commandments, which I have loved; and I will meditate in thy statutes.
