⁵ O that my ways were directed to keep thy statutes!

⁵ And the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God, and into the patient waiting for Christ.

¹⁰ Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.

²¹ Make you perfect in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is wellpleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

²² For I delight in the law of God after the inward man:

²³ But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members.

²⁴ O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death?

³³ But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people.

¹⁷³ Let thine hand help me; for I have chosen thy precepts.

¹⁵⁹ Consider how I love thy precepts: quicken me, O LORD, according to thy lovingkindness.

¹³¹ I opened my mouth, and panted: for I longed for thy commandments.

⁴⁴ So shall I keep thy law continually for ever and ever.

⁴⁵ And I will walk at liberty: for I seek thy precepts.

³⁶ Incline my heart unto thy testimonies, and not to covetousness.

³² I will run the way of thy commandments, when thou shalt enlarge my heart.
