53 Horror took hold on me, becauseill men thy law forsake.
54 I in my house of pilgrimagethy laws my songs do make.
55 Thy name by night, Lord, I did mind,and I have kept thy law.
56 And this I had, because thy wordI kept, and stood in awe.
57 Thou my sure portion art alone,which I did chuse, O Lord:I have resolv'd, and said, that Iwould keep thy holy word.
58 With my whole heart I did entreatthy face and favour free:According to thy gracious wordbe merciful to me.
59 I thought upon my former ways,and did my life well try;And to thy testimonies puremy feet then turned I.
