Scottish Psalter And Paraphrases

8,6,8,6

^25My soul to dust cleaves: quicken me,

according to thy word.

^26My ways I shew'd, and me thou heard'st:

teach me thy statutes, Lord.

^27The way of thy commandements

make me aright to know;

So all thy works that wondrous are

I shall to others show.

^28My soul doth melt, and drop away,

for heaviness and grief:

To me, according to thy word,

give strength, and send relief.

^29From me the wicked way of lies

let far removed be;

And graciously thy holy law

do thou grant unto me.

^30I chosen have the perfect way

of truth and verity:

Thy judgments that most righteous are

before me laid have I.

^31I to thy testimonies cleave;

shame do not on me cast.

^32I'll run thy precepts' way, when thou

my heart enlarged hast.
