Speaker 3: keep thy precepts diligently, Oh, that my ways were directed

68
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:18,440

69
00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:22,760

70
00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:26,039

71
00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:30,840
Speaker 3: learned thy righteous judgments, I will keep thy statutes. O

72
00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:35,239
Speaker 3: forsake me not utterly, wherewithal shall a young man cleanse

73
00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:39,159
Speaker 3: his way by taking heed THERETO according to Thy word.

74
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:43,320
Speaker 3: With my whole heart have I sought THEE. Oh, let

75
00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:47,240
Speaker 3: me not wander from Thy commandments. Thy woe have I

76
00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:50,719

Speaker 3: Blessed art thou o lord, teach me thy statutes with

78
00:06:57,040 --> 00:07:00,000
Speaker 3: my lips. I have declared all the judgments of thy mouth.

79
00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:03,320
Speaker 3: I have rejoiced in the way of thy testimonies as

80
00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:06,760
Speaker 3: much as in all riches. I will meditate in thy

81
00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:11,320
Speaker 3: precepts and have respect unto thy ways. I will delight

82
00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:14,880
Speaker 3: myself in thy statutes. I will not forget thy word.

83
00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:19,280

Speaker 3: keep thy word open thou mine eyes, that I may

85
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:27,200

86
00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:30,840
Speaker 3: stranger in the earth. Hide not thy commandments from me.

87
00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:35,240

88
00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:39,320
Speaker 3: Thy judgments at all times. Thou hast rebuked the proud

89
00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:43,720
Speaker 3: that accursed, which do err from thy commandments. Remove me

90
00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:47,560

91
00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:51,960
Speaker 3: Princes also did sit and speak against me, but thy

92
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:56,320
Speaker 3: servant did meditate in thy statutes. Thy testimonies also are

93
00:07:56,360 --> 00:08:00,600
Speaker 3: my delight, and my counselors. My soul cleaveth unto the dust.

94
00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:05,320
Speaker 3: Quicken thou me according to thy word. I have declared

95
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:09,600
Speaker 3: my ways, and thou hurtest me. Teach me thy statutes.

98
00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:22,320
Speaker 3: for heaviness. Strengthen thou me according to thy word. Remove

99
00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:25,080
Speaker 3: from me the way of lying, and grant me thy

100
00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:29,400
Speaker 3: law graciously. I have chosen the way of truth. Thy

101
00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:33,000
Speaker 3: judgments have I laid before me. I have stuck unto

102
00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:37,040
Speaker 3: thy testimonies. O Lord, put me not to shame. I

103
00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:40,280
Speaker 3: will run the way of thy commandments. When thou shalt

104
00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:43,840
Speaker 3: enlarge my heart. Teach me, O Lord, the way of

105
00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:46,840
Speaker 3: thy statutes, and I shall keep it unto the end.

106
00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:51,600
Speaker 3: Give me understanding, and I shall keep thy law. Yea,

107
00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:54,880
Speaker 3: I shall observe it with my whole heart. Make me

108
00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:58,040
Speaker 3: to go in the path of thy commandments. For therein

109
00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:02,800
Speaker 3: do I delight my heart unto thy testimonies, and not

110
00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:07,720
Speaker 3: to covetousness. Turn away mine eyes from beholding vanity, and

111
00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:11,800
Speaker 3: quicken thou me in thy way. Establish thy word unto

112
00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:15,800
Speaker 3: thy servant who is devoted to thy fear, Turn away

113
00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:20,960
Speaker 3: my reproach, which I fear, for thy judgments are good. Behold,

114
00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:25,400
Speaker 3: I have longed after Thy precepts. Quicken me and thy righteousness.

115
00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:29,480
Speaker 3: Let thy mercies come also unto me, O Lord, even

116
00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:33,280
Speaker 3: thy salvation according to thy word. So shall I have

117
00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:37,120
Speaker 3: wherewith to answer him that reproacheth me. For I trust

118
00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:40,440
Speaker 3: in thy word, and take not the word of truth

119
00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:43,319
Speaker 3: utterly out of my mouth. For I have hoped in

120
00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:47,880
Speaker 3: thy judgments. So shall I keep thy law continually, forever

121
00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:51,520
Speaker 3: and ever. And I will walk at liberty, for I

122
00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:55,640
Speaker 3: seek thy precepts. I will speak of thy testimonies also

123
00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:59,320
Speaker 3: before kings, and will not be ashamed. And I will

124
00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:02,160
Speaker 3: delight myself elf in thy commandments which I have loved.

125
00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:06,400
Speaker 3: My hands also will lift up unto thy commandments which

126
00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:09,679
Speaker 3: I have loved, and I will meditate in thy statutes.

127
00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:14,360
Speaker 3: Remember the word unto thy servant, upon which thou hast

128
00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:17,840
Speaker 3: caused me to hope. This is my comfort in my affliction,

129
00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:22,040
Speaker 3: For thy word hath quickened me. The proud have had

130
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:25,640
Speaker 3: me greatly in derision. Yet have I not declined from

131
00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:29,240
Speaker 3: thy law. I remembered thy judgments of old, O Lord,

132
00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:33,719
Speaker 3: and have comforted myself. Horror hath taken hold upon me

133
00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:38,280
Speaker 3: because of the wicked that forsake thy law. Thy statutes

134
00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:41,079
Speaker 3: have been my songs in the house of my pilgrimage.

135
00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:44,080
Speaker 3: I have remembered thy name, O Lord, in the knight,

136
00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:48,400
Speaker 3: and have kept thy law. This I had because I

137
00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:52,800
Speaker 3: kept thy precepts. Thou art my portion, O Lord, I

138
00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:56,000
Speaker 3: have said that I would keep thy words. I entreated

139
00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:59,520
Speaker 3: thy favor with my whole heart. Be merciful unto me

140
00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:02,960
Speaker 3: according to thy word. I thought on my ways and

141
00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:07,439
Speaker 3: turned my feet unto thy testimonies. I made haste and delayed,

142
00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:10,760
Speaker 3: not to keep thy commandments. The bands of the wicked

143
00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:13,800
Speaker 3: have robbed me, but I have not forgotten thy law.

144
00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:17,560
Speaker 3: At midnight I will rise to give thanks unto THEE.

145
00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:21,920
Speaker 3: Because of thy righteous judgments. I am a companion of

146
00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:24,960
Speaker 3: all them that fear THEE, and of them that keep

147
00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:29,160
Speaker 3: thy precepts. The earth, O Lord, is full of thy mercy.

148
00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:34,480
Speaker 3: Teach me thy statutes. Thou hast dwelt well with thy servant,

149
00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:38,760
Speaker 3: O Lord, according unto thy word. Teach me good judgment

150
00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:43,200
Speaker 3: and knowledge. For I have believed thy commandments. Before I

151
00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:46,920
Speaker 3: was afflicted, I went astray, But now have I kept

152
00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:51,800
Speaker 3: thy word. Thou art good, and doest good. Teach me

153
00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:55,920
Speaker 3: thy statutes. The proud have forged a lie against me,

154
00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:59,000
Speaker 3: But I will keep thy precepts with my whole heart.

155
00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:02,800
Speaker 3: There heart is as fat as Greece. But I delight

156
00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:05,520
Speaker 3: in thy law. It is good for me that I

157
00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:09,360
Speaker 3: have been afflicted, that I might learn thy statutes. The

158
00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:12,319
Speaker 3: law of thy mouth is better unto me than thousands

159
00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:15,480
Speaker 3: of gold and silver. Thy hands have made me and

160
00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:20,360
Speaker 3: fashioned me. Give me understanding that I may learn thy commandments.

161
00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:23,200
Speaker 3: They that fear THEE will be glad when they see me,

162
00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:27,360
Speaker 3: because I have hoped in thy word. I know, o Lord,

163
00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:30,680
Speaker 3: that thy judgments are right, and that Thou, in faithfulness

164
00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:34,800
Speaker 3: hast afflicted me. Let I pray THEE Thy merciful kindness

165
00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:38,720
Speaker 3: be for my comfort according to thy word, unto thy servant.

166
00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:43,240
Speaker 3: Let thy tender mercies come unto me, that I may live.

167
00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:48,080
Speaker 3: For Thy law is my delight. Let the proud be ashamed,

168
00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:52,080
Speaker 3: for they dealt perversely with me without a cause. But

169
00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:56,000
Speaker 3: I will meditate in thy precepts. Let those that fear

170
00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:59,720
Speaker 3: THEE turn unto me, and those that have known thy testimonies.

171
00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:03,320
Speaker 3: Let my heart be sound in thy statutes, that I

172
00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:08,560
Speaker 3: be not ashamed. My soul fainteth for thy salvation. But

173
00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:12,880
Speaker 3: I hope in thy word. Mine eyes fail for thy word, saying,

174
00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:17,520
Speaker 3: when wilt thou comfort me? For I am become like

175
00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:20,480
Speaker 3: a bottle in the smoke. Yet do I not forget

176
00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:24,160
Speaker 3: thy statutes? How many are the days of thy servant?

177
00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:27,840
Speaker 3: When wilt thou execute judgment on them that persecute me?

178
00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:31,640
Speaker 3: The proud hath digged pits for me, which are not

179
00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:37,120
Speaker 3: afar thy law. All thy commandments are faithful. They persecute

180
00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:41,800
Speaker 3: me wrongfully help thou me. They had almost consumed me

181
00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:46,560
Speaker 3: upon earth. But I forstook not only thy precepts quicken

182
00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:49,800
Speaker 3: me after thy loving kindness. So shall I keep the

183
00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:53,960
Speaker 3: testimony of thy mouth forever, O Lord, Thy word is

184
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:59,160
Speaker 3: settled in heaven. Thy faithfulness is unto all generations. Thou

185
00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:03,800
Speaker 3: hast established the earth, and it abideth. They continue this

186
00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:08,400
Speaker 3: day according to Thine ordinances. For all are they servants.

187
00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:12,640
Speaker 3: Unless Thy law had been my delights, I should then

188
00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:17,120
Speaker 3: have perished in mine affliction. I will never forget thy precepts,

189
00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:21,160
Speaker 3: For with them thou hast quickened me. I am thine

190
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:24,960
Speaker 3: save me, For I have sought thy precepts. The wicked

191
00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:28,600
Speaker 3: have waited for me to destroy me. But I will

192
00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:32,800
Speaker 3: consider thy testimonies. I have seen an end of all perfection.

193
00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:37,880
Speaker 3: But thy commandment is exceedingly broad. Oh, how I love

194
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:42,560
Speaker 3: thy law. It is my meditation all the day. Thou,

195
00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:46,920
Speaker 3: through thy commandments, hast made me wiser than mine enemies,

196
00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:51,040
Speaker 3: for they are never with me. I have more understanding

197
00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:54,760
Speaker 3: than all my teachers. For thy testimonies are my meditation.

198
00:14:55,720 --> 00:15:00,440
Speaker 3: I understand more than the ancients. Because I keep thy precepts.

199
00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:04,080
Speaker 3: I have refrained my feet from every evil way that

200
00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:07,720
Speaker 3: I might keep thy word. I have not departed from

201
00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:11,280
Speaker 3: thy judgments. For thou hast taught me how sweet are

202
00:15:11,280 --> 00:15:14,640
Speaker 3: thy words unto my taste? Yea sweeter than honey to

203
00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:19,800
Speaker 3: my mouth. Through thy precepts, I get understanding. Therefore I

204
00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:23,600
Speaker 3: hate every false way. Thy word is a lamp unto

205
00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:27,800
Speaker 3: my feet, and a light unto my path. I have sworn,

206
00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:30,800
Speaker 3: and I will perform it, that I will keep thy

207
00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:35,960
Speaker 3: righteous judgments. I am afflicted very much. Quicken me, O Lord,

208
00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:40,440
Speaker 3: according to thy word, except I beseech thee the free

209
00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:43,600
Speaker 3: will offerings of my mouth, O Lord, and teach me

210
00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:48,560
Speaker 3: thy judgments. My soul is continually in my hand. Yet

211
00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:51,920
Speaker 3: do I not forget thy law. The wicked have laid

212
00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:55,360
Speaker 3: a snare for me. Yet I erred not from thy precepts.

213
00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:59,800
Speaker 3: Thy testimonies have I taken as a heritage forever, for

214
00:15:59,840 --> 00:16:03,640
Speaker 3: they are the rejoicing of my heart. I have inclined

215
00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:07,560
Speaker 3: mine heart to perform thy statutes alway, even unto the end.

216
00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:11,480
Speaker 3: I hate vain thoughts, but thy law do I love.

217
00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:15,680
Speaker 3: Thou art my hiding place and my shield. I hope

218
00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:19,720
Speaker 3: in thy word. Depart from me, ye, evil doers, for

219
00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:23,360
Speaker 3: I will keep the commandments of my God. Uphold me

220
00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:26,760
Speaker 3: according to thy word, that I may live, and let

221
00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:30,520
Speaker 3: me not be ashamed of my hope. Hold thou me up,

222
00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:33,960
Speaker 3: and I shall be safe, and I will have respect

223
00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:38,720
Speaker 3: unto thy statutes. Continually, Thou hast trodden down all them

224
00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:42,480
Speaker 3: that err from thy statutes, for their deceit is falsehood.

225
00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:46,360
Speaker 3: Thou puttest away all the wicked of the earth like dross.

226
00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:51,600
Speaker 3: Therefore I love thy testimonies. My flesh trembleth for fear

227
00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:55,400
Speaker 3: of thee, and I am afraid of thy judgments. I

228
00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:58,760
Speaker 3: have done judgment and justice. Leave me not to mine

229
00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:03,080
Speaker 3: oppressors be surely for thy servant for good. Let not

230
00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:07,040
Speaker 3: the proud oppress me mine eyes fail, for thy salvation

231
00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:11,000
Speaker 3: and for the word of thy righteousness. Deal with thy

232
00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:15,160
Speaker 3: servant according unto thy mercy, and teach me thy statutes.

233
00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:19,760
Speaker 3: I am thy servant. Give me understanding that I may

234
00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:24,080
Speaker 3: know thy testimonies. It is time for thee Lord to work,

235
00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:28,600
Speaker 3: for they have made void thy law. Therefore I love

236
00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:33,359
Speaker 3: thy commandments above gold, yea above fine gold. Therefore I

237
00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:37,080
Speaker 3: esteem all thy precepts concerning all things to be right,

238
00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:41,680
Speaker 3: and I hate every false way. Thy testimonies are wonderful.

239
00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:45,680
Speaker 3: Therefore doth my soul keep them. The entrance of thy

240
00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:49,920
Speaker 3: words giveth life. The entrance of thy words giveth light.

241
00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:54,560
Speaker 3: It giveth understanding. Unto the simple, I opened my mouth

242
00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:58,840
Speaker 3: and panted, for I longed for thy commandments. Look thou

243
00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:03,200
Speaker 3: upon me, and be merciful unto me as thou usest

244
00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:06,919
Speaker 3: to do unto those that love thy name. Order my

245
00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:10,359
Speaker 3: steps in thy world, and let not any iniquity have

246
00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:14,560
Speaker 3: dominion over me. Deliver me from the oppression of man.

247
00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:18,320
Speaker 3: So will I keep thy precepts, Make thy face to

248
00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:23,120
Speaker 3: shine upon thy servant, and teach me thy statutes. Rivers

249
00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:26,760
Speaker 3: of waters run down mine eyes because they keep not

250
00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:31,199
Speaker 3: thy law. Righteous art Thou, o Lord, and upright are

251
00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:35,600
Speaker 3: thy judgments. Thy testimonies that thou hast commanded are righteous

252
00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:40,120
Speaker 3: and very faithful. My zeal hath consumed me because mine

253
00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:44,399
Speaker 3: enemies have forgotten thy words. Thy word is very pure.

254
00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:49,400
Speaker 3: Therefore thy servant loveth it. I am small and despised,

255
00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:53,760
Speaker 3: Yet do I not forget thy precepts. Thy righteousness is

256
00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:58,760
Speaker 3: an everlasting righteousness, and thy law is the truth. Trouble

257
00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:02,240
Speaker 3: and anguish have taken hold on me, Yet thy commandments

258
00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:06,879
Speaker 3: are my delights. The righteousness of thy testimonies is everlasting.

259
00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:11,639
Speaker 3: Give me understanding, and I shall live. I cried with

260
00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:14,800
Speaker 3: my whole heart. Hear me, O Lord, I will keep

261
00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:18,800
Speaker 3: thy statutes. I cried unto thee save me, and I

262
00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:23,479
Speaker 3: shall keep thy testimonies. I prevented the drowning of the morning,

263
00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:27,879
Speaker 3: and cried. I hoped in thy word, Mine eyes prevent

264
00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:31,640
Speaker 3: the night watches, that I might meditate in thy word.

265
00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:35,879
Speaker 3: Hear my voice according unto thy loving kindness, O Lord,

266
00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:40,320
Speaker 3: quicken me. According to thy judgment. They draw nigh that

267
00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:44,640
Speaker 3: follow after mischief. They are far from thy law. Thou

268
00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:48,240
Speaker 3: art near, o Lord, and all thy commandments are truth.

269
00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:52,240
Speaker 3: Concerning thy testimonies, I have known of old that Thou

270
00:19:52,280 --> 00:19:56,960
Speaker 3: hast founded them. Forever, Consider mine affliction and deliver me.

271
00:19:57,520 --> 00:20:01,159
Speaker 3: For I do not forget thy law. Plead my cause

272
00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:05,480
Speaker 3: and deliver me. Quicken me according to thy word. Salvation

273
00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:09,000
Speaker 3: is far from wicked, for they seek not thy statutes.

274
00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:13,560
Speaker 3: Great are thy tender mercies, O Lord, Quicken me according

275
00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:17,840
Speaker 3: to thy judgments. Many are my persecutors and mine enemies.

276
00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:22,000
Speaker 3: Yet do I not decline from thy testimonies. I beheld

277
00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:26,119
Speaker 3: the transgressors and was grieved because they kept not thy word.

278
00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:30,800
Speaker 3: Consider how I love thy precepts. Quicken me, O Lord,

279
00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:34,720
Speaker 3: according to thy loving kindness. Thy word is true from

280
00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:38,600
Speaker 3: the beginning, and every one of thy righteous judgments endureth

281
00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:42,960
Speaker 3: for ever. Princes have persecuted me without a cause. But

282
00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:47,040
Speaker 3: my heart standeth in awe of thy word. I rejoice

283
00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:50,840
Speaker 3: at thy word as one that findeth great spoil. I

284
00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:53,960
Speaker 3: hate an abhor lying, But thy law do I love.

285
00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:57,359
Speaker 3: Seven times a day do I praise thee because of

286
00:20:57,440 --> 00:21:01,560
Speaker 3: thy righteous judgments. Great peace have they which love thy law,

287
00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:05,560
Speaker 3: and nothing shall offend them. Lord, I have hoped for

288
00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:10,119
Speaker 3: thy salvation and done thy commandments. My soul hath kept

289
00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:14,600
Speaker 3: thy testimonies, and I loved them exceedingly. I have kept

290
00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:17,920
Speaker 3: thy precepts and thy testimonies. For all my ways are

291
00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:22,000
Speaker 3: before THEE. Let my cry come near before THEE. O Lord,

292
00:21:22,600 --> 00:21:26,880
Speaker 3: give me understanding according to thy word. Let my supplication

293
00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:31,439
Speaker 3: come before thee. Deliver me according to thy word. My

294
00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:35,280
Speaker 3: lips shall utter praise. When thou hast taught me thy statutes.

295
00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:38,920
Speaker 3: My tongue shall speak of thy word. For all thy

296
00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:43,399
Speaker 3: commandments are righteousness. Let Thine hand help me, for I

297
00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:47,160
Speaker 3: have chosen thy precepts. I have longed for thy salvation,

298
00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:51,200
Speaker 3: O Lord, and thy law is my delight. Let my

299
00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:55,040
Speaker 3: soul live and it shall praise THEE. And let thy

300
00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:59,080
Speaker 3: judgments help me. I have gone astray like a lost sheep,

301
00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:05,360
Speaker 3: thy servant, for I do not forget thy commandments. God's

302
00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:10,000
Speaker 3: laws are old treasures that make our hearts new. So tonight,

303
00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:14,120
Speaker 3: put your trust in the Lord and commit to following

304
00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:19,040
Speaker 3: his ways. Allow his righteousness to purify you and renew you.

305
00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:23,520
Speaker 3: Allow his salvation to fill your mind with his hope,

306
00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:28,560
Speaker 3: and warm your heart with his joy. Breathe in and

307
00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:32,919
Speaker 3: out slowly, take delight in the word of the Lord.

308
00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:38,040
Speaker 3: Thirst for his truth. Meditate on his commandments in the

309
00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:41,240
Speaker 3: morning when you wake up, and in the evening when
