22 So rude was I, and ignorant,and in thy sight a beast.
23 Nevertheless continually,O Lord, I am with thee:Thou dost me hold by my right hand,and still upholdest me.
24 Thou, with thy counsel, while I live,wilt me conduct and guide;And to thy glory afterwardreceive me to abide.
25 Whom have I in the heavens highbut thee, O Lord, alone?And in the earth whom I desirebesides thee there is none.
26 My flesh and heart doth faint and fail,but God doth fail me never:For of my heart God is the strengthand portion for ever.
27 For, lo, they that are far from theefor ever perish shall;Them that a whoring from thee gothou hast destroyed all.
