SAMECH.

I hate vain thoughts:

But thy law do I love.

Thou art my hiding place and my shield:

I hope in thy word.

Depart from me, ye evildoers:

For I will keep the commandments of my God.

Uphold me according unto thy word, that I may live:

And let me not be ashamed of my hope.

And I will have respect unto thy statutes continually.

For their deceit is falsehood.

Thou puttest away all the wicked of the earth like dross:

Therefore I love thy testimonies.

My flesh trembleth for fear of thee;

And I am afraid of thy judgments.
