My soul clings to the dust;

give me life according to your word!

When I told of my ways, you answered me;

teach me your statutes!

Make me understand the way of your precepts,

and I will meditate on your wondrous works.

My soul melts away for sorrow;

strengthen me according to your word!

Put false ways far from me

and graciously teach me your law!

I have chosen the way of faithfulness;

I set your rules before me.

I cling to your testimonies, O Lord;

let me not be put to shame!

I will run in the way of your commandments

when you enlarge my heart!

I am laid low in the dust;

preserve my life according to your word.

teach me your decrees.

that I may meditate on your wonderful deeds.

My soul is weary with sorrow;

strengthen me according to your word.

Keep me from deceitful ways;

be gracious to me and teach me your law.

I have chosen the way of faithfulness;

I have set my heart on your laws.

I hold fast to your statutes, Lord;

do not let me be put to shame.

I run in the path of your commands,

for you have broadened my understanding.

Lord, do not put me to shame.

I pursue the way of your commands,

for you broaden my understanding.

encourage me by your word.

Keep me from lying to myself;

give me the privilege of knowing your instructions.

I have determined to live by your regulations.

I cling to your laws.

Lord, don’t let me be put to shame!
