Day XXVI : Evening Prayer

Clamavi in toto corde meo

145 I call with my whole heart. 🞙
    Hear me, O Lord; I will keep your statutes.

146 Even unto you do I call; 🞙
    help me, and I shall keep your testimonies.

147 Early in the morning do I cry unto you, 🞙
    for in your word is my trust.

148 My eyes open before the night watches, 🞙
    that I may meditate on your words.

149 Hear my voice, O Lord, according to your loving-kindness; 🞙
    give me life according to your judgments.

150 They draw nigh who in malice persecute me, 🞙
    and are far from your law.

151 Be near at hand, O Lord, 🞙
    for all your commandments are true.

152 Concerning your testimonies, I have known long ago 🞙
    that you have founded them for ever.

153 O consider my adversity and deliver me, 🞙

154 Plead my cause and deliver me; 🞙
    give me life according to your word.

155 Salvation is far from the ungodly, 🞙
    for they do not regard your statutes.

156 Great is your mercy, O Lord; 🞙
    give me life according to your judgments.

157 Many there are who trouble me and persecute me, 🞙
    yet I do not swerve from your testimonies.

158 It grieves me when I see the transgressors, 🞙
    because they do not keep your law.

159 Consider, O Lord, how I love your commandments; 🞙
    O give me life according to your loving-kindness.

160 Your word is true from everlasting; 🞙
    all the judgments of your righteousness endure for evermore. Principes persecuti sunt

161 Princes have persecuted me without a cause, 🞙
    but my heart stands in awe of your word.

162 I am as glad of your word 🞙
    as one who finds great spoils.

163 As for lies, I hate and abhor them, 🞙
    but your law do I love.

164 Seven times a day do I praise you, 🞙
    because of your righteous judgments.

165 Great is the peace they have who love your law 🞙
    and find in it no stumbling block.

166 Lord, I have looked for your saving health 🞙
    and have done your commandments.

167 My soul has kept your testimonies, 🞙
    and I have loved them exceedingly.

168 I have kept your commandments and testimonies, 🞙
    for all my ways are before you.

    deliver me, according to your word.

171 My lips shall pour forth your praise, 🞙
    when you have taught me your statutes.

172 Surely my tongue shall sing of your word, 🞙
    for all your commandments are righteous.

173 Let your hand be strong to help me, 🞙
    for I have chosen your commandments.

174 I have longed for your saving health, O Lord, 🞙
    and in your law is my delight.

175 O let my soul live, and it shall praise you; 🞙
    and let your judgments help me.

176 I have gone astray like a sheep that is lost; 🞙
    O seek your servant, for I do not forget your commandments.
