⁹² Unless thy law had been my delight, I should then have perished in mine affliction.

¹³ `I had fainted', unless I had believed to see the goodness of Jehovah In the land of the living.

¹⁸ When I said, My foot slippeth; Thy lovingkindness, O Jehovah, held me up.

¹⁹ In the multitude of my thoughts within me Thy comforts delight my soul.

²⁴ Thy testimonies also are my delight `And' my counsellors.

⁷⁷ Let thy tender mercies come unto me, that I may live; For thy law is my delight.

¹⁴³ Trouble and anguish have taken hold on me; `Yet' thy commandments are my delight.

²² When thou walkest, it shall lead thee; When thou sleepest, it shall watch over thee; And when thou awakest, it shall talk with thee.

²³ For the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; And reproofs of instruction are the way of life:

⁴ For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that through patience and through comfort of the scriptures we might have hope.
