I understand more than the ancients, because I keep thy precepts.
I have refrained my feet from every evil way, that I might keep thy word.
I have not departed from thy judgments: for thou hast taught me.
How sweet are thy words unto my taste! [yea, sweeter] than honey to my mouth!
Through thy precepts I get understanding: therefore I hate every false way.
NUN. Thy word [is] a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.
I have sworn, and I will perform [it], that I will keep thy righteous judgments.
I am afflicted very much: quicken me, O LORD, according unto thy word.
Accept, I beseech thee, the freewill offerings of my mouth, O LORD, and teach me thy judgments.
My soul [is] continually in my hand: yet do I not forget thy law.
