O Lord, thou art most righteous;
thy judgments are upright.
Thy testimonies thou command’st
most faithful are and right.
My zeal hath ev’n consumed me,
because mine enemies
Thy holy words forgotten have,
and do thy laws despise.
Thy word’s most pure, therefore on it
thy servant’s love is set.
Small, and despis’d I am, yet I
thy precepts not forget.
Thy righteousness is righteousness
which ever doth endure:
Thy holy law, Lord, also is
the very truth most pure.
Trouble and anguish have me found,
and taken hold on me:
Yet in my trouble my delight
thy just commandments be.
Eternal righteousness is in
thy testimonies all:
Lord, to me understanding give,
and ever live I shall.
