Psalm 119:25-28

    [25] My soul clings to the dust;

        give me life according to your word! 

    [26] When I told of my ways, you answered me;

        teach me your statutes! 

    [27] Make me understand the way of your precepts,

        and I will meditate on your wondrous works. 

    [28] My soul melts away for sorrow;

        strengthen me according to your word!
