אִמרָה אֶמרָה

And Lamech said unto his wives, Adah and Zillah, Hear my voice; ye wives of Lamech, hearken unto my speech: for I have slain a man to my wounding, and a young man to my hurt.

My doctrine shall drop as the rain, my speech shall distil as the dew, as the small rain upon the tender herb, and as the showers upon the grass:

Who said unto his father and to his mother, I have not seen him; neither did he acknowledge his brethren, nor knew his own children: for they have observed thy word, and kept thy covenant.

As for God, his way is perfect; the word of the LORD is tried: he is a buckler to all them that trust in him.

The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times.

I have called upon thee, for thou wilt hear me, O God: incline thine ear unto me, and hear my speech.

As for God, his way is perfect: the word of the LORD is tried: he is a buckler to all those that trust in him.

Until the time that his word came: the word of the LORD tried him.

Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.

Stablish thy word unto thy servant, who is devoted to thy fear.

VAU. Let thy mercies come also unto me, O LORD, even thy salvation, according to thy word.

This is my comfort in my affliction: for thy word hath quickened me.

I intreated thy favour with my whole heart: be merciful unto me according to thy word.

Before I was afflicted I went astray: but now have I kept thy word.

Let, I pray thee, thy merciful kindness be for my comfort, according to thy word unto thy servant.

Mine eyes fail for thy word, saying, When wilt thou comfort me?

How sweet are thy words unto my taste! yea, sweeter than honey to my mouth!

Uphold me according unto thy word, that I may live: and let me not be ashamed of my hope.

Mine eyes fail for thy salvation, and for the word of thy righteousness.

Order my steps in thy word: and let not any iniquity have dominion over me.

Thy word is very pure: therefore thy servant loveth it.

Mine eyes prevent the night watches, that I might meditate in thy word.

Plead my cause, and deliver me: quicken me according to thy word.

I beheld the transgressors, and was grieved; because they kept not thy word.
