8,6,8,6 ^161Princes have persecuted me, although no cause they saw: But still of thy most holy word my heart doth stand in awe. ^162I at thy word rejoice, as one of spoil that finds great store. ^163Thy law I love; but lying all I hate and do abhor. ^164Sev'n times a-day it is my care to give due praise to thee; Because of all thy judgments, Lord, which righteous ever be. ^165Great peace have they who love thy law; offence they shall have none. ^166I hop'd for thy salvation, Lord, and thy commands have done. ^167My soul thy testimonies pure observed carefully; On them my heart is set, and them I love exceedingly. ^168Thy testimonies and thy laws I kept with special care; For all my works and ways each one before thee open are. |
