Psalm 119:73-80 (Yod)

Thy hands have made and fashioned me

from the Scottish Psalter, 1650; rev. #doreancon, 2026 · 8.6.8.6 D

1.Thy hands have made and fashioned me;
let wisdom be conferred,
So who thee fear shall joy to see
me trusting in thy word.
That very right thy judgments are
I know, and do confess;
And that thou hast afflicted me
in truth and faithfulness.

2.O let thy kindness merciful,
I pray thee, comfort me,
As to thy servant faithfully
was promised, Lord, by thee.
And let thy tender mercies come
to me, that I may live;
Because thy holy laws to me
sweet delectation give.

3.Lord, let the proud be put to shame;
for they, without a cause,
With me perversely dealt: but I
will muse upon thy laws.
Let such as fear thee, and have known
thy statutes, turn to me.
My heart let in thy laws be sound,
that shamed I never be.
