NUN.

Thy word is a lamp unto my feet,

And a light unto my path.

I have sworn, and I will perform it,

That I will keep thy righteous judgments.

Quicken me, O Lord, according unto thy word.

Accept, I beseech thee, the freewill offerings of my mouth, O Lord,

And teach me thy judgments.

My soul is continually in my hand:

Yet do I not forget thy law.

The wicked have laid a snare for me:

Yet I erred not from thy precepts.

Thy testimonies have I taken as an heritage for ever:

For they are the rejoicing of my heart.

I have inclined mine heart to perform thy statutes

Alway, even unto the end.
