Blessed is every one that feareth the LORD; that walketh in his ways.

Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth, may Israel now say:

Out of the depths have I cried unto thee, O LORD.

LORD, my heart is not haughty, nor mine eyes lofty: neither do I exercise myself in great matters, or in things too high for me.
