⁹⁷ `Mem.' O how I have loved Thy law! All the day it `is' my meditation.

² But -- in the law of Jehovah `is' his delight, And in His law he doth meditate by day and by night:

¹²⁷ Therefore I have loved Thy commands Above gold -- even fine gold.

⁴⁸ And I lift up my hands unto Thy commands, That I have loved, And I do meditate on Thy statutes!

¹ For `an object of' desire he who is separated doth seek, With all wisdom he intermeddleth.

¹⁰ For wisdom cometh into thy heart, And knowledge to thy soul is pleasant,

¹⁶⁷ Kept hath my soul Thy testimonies, And I do love them exceedingly.

¹⁶⁵ Abundant peace have those loving Thy law, And they have no stumbling-block.

¹⁵⁹ See, for thy precepts I have loved, Jehovah, According to Thy kindness quicken me.

¹¹³ `Samech.' Doubting ones I have hated, And Thy law I have loved.

⁸ the book of this law doth not depart out of thy mouth, and thou hast meditated in it by day and by night, so that thou dost observe to do according to all that is written in it, for then thou dost cause thy way to prosper, and then thou dost act wisely.

¹⁹ and it hath been with him, and he hath read in it all days of his life, so that he doth learn to fear Jehovah his God, to keep all the words of this law, and these statutes, to do them;

⁶ and these words which I am commanding thee to-day have been on thine heart,

⁷ and thou hast repeated them to thy sons, and spoken of them in thy sitting in thine house, and in thy walking in the way, and in thy lying down, and in thy rising up,

⁸ and hast bound them for a sign upon thy hand, and they have been for frontlets between thine eyes,

⁹ and thou hast written them on door-posts of thy house, and on thy gates.
