PART SEVENTY FIVE
The Lord is my portion
I have promised to keep Thy Words
I entreated Thy favour with all my heart
Be gracious to me according to Thy word
I considered my ways
And turned my feet to Thy testimonies
I hastened and did not delay
To keep Thy commandments
The cords of the wicked have encircled me
But I have not forgotten thy law
At midnight I shall rise to give thanks to Thee
Because of Thy righteous ordinances.
I am a companion of all those who fear Thee
And of those who keep Thy precepts
The earth is full of Thy loving kindness
O Lord, teach me Thy statutes.
Thou hast dealt well with Thy servant
O Lord, according to Thy word
Teach me good discernment and knowledge
for I believe in Thy commandments.
Before I was afflicted, I went astray
but now I keep Thy word
Thou art good and doest good
Teach me Thy statutes
The arrogant have forged a lie against me
With all my heart I will observe Thy precepts
their heart is covered with fat
But I delight in Thy law
It is good for me that I was afflicted
That I might learn Thy statutes
The law of Thy mouth is better to me
than thousands of gold and silver pieces.

fashioned me
Give me understanding
that I may learn Thy
commandments
