Psalm 119:25-32

Your Word Is a Lamp to My Feet

Daleth

25
u My soul clings to the dust;
v give me life w according to your word!
26 When x I told of my ways, you answered me;
y teach me your statutes!
27 z Make me understand the way of your precepts,
and I will a meditate on your wondrous works.
28 b My soul melts away for sorrow;
strengthen me according to your word!
29 Put false ways far from me
and graciously c teach me your law!
30 I have chosen the way of faithfulness;
I d set your rules before me.
31 I cling to your testimonies, O Lord;
e let me not be put to shame!
32 I will run in the way of your commandments
when you f enlarge my heart! 1
