CHETH.

Thou art my portion, O Lord:

I have said that I would keep thy words.

I intreated thy favour with my whole heart:

Be merciful unto me according to thy word.

And turned my feet unto thy testimonies.

To keep thy commandments.

But I have not forgotten thy law.

Because of thy righteous judgments.

I am a companion of all them that fear thee,

And of them that keep thy precepts.

The earth, O Lord, is full of thy mercy:

Teach me thy statutes.
