Eighteenth PART. TSADDI

Righteous art thou, O Lord; and all Thy Judgments upright are we find. Thy Testimonies righteous are, And faithful which thou hast enjoin'd. Thy Zeal consumed me; because Mine Enemies thy Law forget. Thy Word is thoroughly refin'd; Therefore my Heart on it is set. Tho' I am little, and despis'd, My Mind thy Precepts yet retains. Thy Righteousness forever lasts; Thy Law eternal Truth remains. Trouble, and Anguish, on me seiz'd; Yet great Delight thy Precepts give. Thy Laws are just forevermore; Oh! teach me them, and I shall live.
