105  Thy word is to my feet a lamp,
        and to my path a light.
106  I sworn have, and I will perform,
        to keep thy judgments right.
107  I am with sore afflïction
        ev'n overwhelmed, O Lord:
     In mercy raise and quicken me,
        according to thy word.

108  The free-will-off'rings of my mouth
        accept, I thee beseech:
     And unto me thy servant, Lord,
        thy judgments clearly teach.
109  Though still my soul be in my hand,
        thy laws I'll not forget.
110  I erred not from them, though for me
        the wicked snares did set.

111  I of thy testimonies have
        above all things made choice,
     To be my heritage for aye;
        for they my heart rejoice.
112  I carefully inclinèd have
        my heart still to attend;
     That I thy statutes may perform
        alway unto the end.
