4 Thou hast commanded to keepe thy precepts diligently.
Tu mandasti mandata tua custodiri nimis.
5 Oh that my waies were directed to keepe thy statutes!
Utinam dirigantur viae meae, ad custodiendas iustificationes tuas.

Iustificationes tuas custodiam: non me derelinquas usquequaque.
9 BETH. Wherewith shall a yong man redresse his waie? in taking heede thereto according to thy woorde.
BETH. In quo corrigit adolescentior viam suam? in custodiendo sermones tuos.
10 With my whole heart haue I sought thee: let me not wander from thy commandements.
In toto corde meo exquisivi te: ne repellas me a mandatis tuis.

Increpasti superbos: maledicti qui declinant a mandatis tuis.
22 Remoue from mee shame and contempt: for I haue kept thy testimonies.
Aufer a me opprobrium, et contemptum: quia testimonia tua exquisivi.
23 Princes also did sit, and speake against me: but thy seruant did meditate in thy statutes.
Etenim sederunt principes, et adversum me loquebantur: servus autem tuus exercebatur in iustificationibus tuis.
24 Also thy testimonies are my delite, and my counsellers.
Nam et testimonia tua meditatio mea est: et consilium meum iustificationes tuae.

Ecce concupivi mandata tua: in aequitate tua vivifica me.
41 VAV. And let thy louing kindnesse come vnto me, O Lord, and thy saluation according to thy promise.
VAU. Et veniat super me misericordia tua Domine: salutare tuum secundum eloquium tuum.
42 So shall I make answere vnto my blasphemers: for I trust in thy woorde.
Et respondebo exprobrantibus mihi verbum: quia speravi in sermonibus tuis.
43 And take not the woorde of trueth vtterly out of my mouth: for I waite for thy iudgements.
Et ne auferas de ore meo verbum veritatis usquequaque: quia in iudiciis tuis supersperavi.

Et custodiam legem tuam semper: in saeculum et in saeculum saeculi.
45 And I will walke at libertie: for I seeke thy precepts.

Haec me consolata est in humilitate mea: quia eloquium tuum vivificavit me.
51 The proude haue had me exceedingly in derision: yet haue I not declined from thy Lawe.
Superbi inique agebant usquequaque: a lege autem tua non declinavi.
52 I remembred thy iudgements of olde, O Lord, and haue bene comforted.
Memor fui iudiciorum tuorum a saeculo Domine: et consolatus sum.
53 Feare is come vpon mee for the wicked, that forsake thy Lawe.
Defectio tenuit me, pro peccatoribus derelinquentibus legem tuam.
54 Thy statutes haue beene my songes in the house of my pilgrimage.
Cantabiles mihi erant iustificationes tuae, in loco peregrinationis meae.
55 I haue remembred thy Name, O Lord, in the night, and haue kept thy Lawe.
Memor fui nocte nominis tui Domine: et custodivi legem tuam.

74 So they that feare thee, seeing mee shall reioyce, because I haue trusted in thy worde.
Qui timent te videbunt me, et laetabuntur: quia in verba tua supersperavi.
75 I knowe, O Lord, that thy iudgements are right, and that thou hast afflicted me iustly.
Cognovi Domine quia aequitas iudicia tua: et in veritate tua humiliasti me.

82 Mine eyes faile for thy promise, saying, when wilt thou comfort me?
Defecerunt oculi mei in eloquium tuum, dicentes: Quando consolaberis me?
83 For I am like a bottell in the smoke: yet doe I not forget thy statutes.
Quia factus sum sicut uter in pruina: iustificationes tuas non sum oblitus.
84 Howe many are the dayes of thy seruant? When wilt thou execute iudgement on them that persecute me?
Quot sunt dies servi tui: quando facies de persequentibus me iudicium?
85 The proude haue digged pittes for mee, which is not after thy Lawe.
Narraverunt mihi iniqui fabulationes: sed non ut lex tua.
86 All thy commandements are true: they persecute me falsely: helpe me.
Omnia mandata tua veritas: iniqui persecuti sunt me, adiuva me.

175 Let my soule liue, and it shall praise thee, and thy iudgements shall helpe me.
Vivet anima mea, et laudabit te: et iudicia tua adiuvabunt me.
176 I haue gone astraye like a lost sheepe: seeke thy seruant, for I doe not forget thy commandements.
Erravi, sicut ovis, quae periit: quaere servum tuum, quia mandata tua non sum oblitus.

< Psalms 119 >
