[verse 121] I doo the thyng that lawfull is, and geue to all men right:Resigne me not to them that would, oppresse me with their might. [verse 122] But for thy seruaunt surty be, in that thing that is good:That proudmen geue me not the foyle, which rage as they were wood.

[verse 123] Mine eies with waiting are now blind thy health so muche I craue:And eke thy righteous promise Lorde, wherby thou wilt me saue. [verse 124] Intreate thy seruaunt louingly, and fauour to him shew:Thy statutes of most excellence, teache me also to knowe.
[verse 125] Thy humble seruaunt, Lorde I am, oh graunt me to vnderstand:Howe by thy statutes I may know, best what to take in hand. [verse 126] It is now time (Lorde) to begin, for truthe is quyte decayd:Thy law lyk wyse they haue transgrest and none against them sayd.
[verse 127] Thys is the cause wherfore I loue, thy lawes better then gold:Or iewels fine which are estemd, most costly to be sold, [verse 128] I thought thy precepts all most iust, and so them layd in store:All crafty and malicious wayes, I doo abhorre therfore.
