The double-minded I abhor, but your commands I love, O Lord The double-minded I abhor, but your commands I love, O Lord. You are my refuge and my shield; I set my hope upon your word. [Sing to the Lord 119:113-120]
that God’s commands I may obey. By your word keep me; I shall live. 2. You evildoers, leave me now, that God’s commands I may obey. By your word keep me; I shall live. Let not my hope be swept away.
for your decrees I have respect. 3. Uphold me, and I shall be saved; for your decrees I have respect. All those who stray from your commands and practise falsehood you reject.
therefore I love your holy law. My body quakes for fear of you; 4. The wicked you discard like dross; therefore I love your holy law. My body quakes for fear of you; of your commands I stand in awe.
