you established the earth, and it endures.

for all things serve you.

for by them you have preserved my life.

Save me, for I am yours;

I have sought out your precepts.

The wicked are waiting to destroy me,

but I will ponder your statutes.

but your commands are boundless.

but Your commands are boundless.
