Psalm 118:10
With my whole heart I have sought after you

HOW does a young man CORRECT his way:/ in keeping your words./ With my whole heart I have sought after you:/ do not reject me from your commandments./ In my heart I have hidden your words./ so that I may not sin against you./ Blessed are you lord/ teach me your just-dealings./ With my lips: I have pronounced/ all the judgements of your mouth./ I am de/lighted in the way of your testimonies: like in all riches./ I will be practised in your commandments:/ and I will consider your ways./ I will contemplate on your just-dealings:/ I will not forget your words./

Transcription

In toto corde meo exquisivi te
IN QUO CORRIGIT / adolescentior viam suam: / in custodiendo sermones tuos. / In toto cor de meo exquisivi te: / ne repellas me a mandatis tuis. / In corde meo abscondi eloquia tua. / ut non peccem ti[bi]. / Benedictus es domine / doc me iustificationes tuas. / In labiis meis: pronuntiavi / omnia iudicia oris tui. / In via testimonior[um] tuor[um] delec/tatus su[m]: sicut in om[n]ib[us] divitiis. / In mandatis tuis exercebor: / et considerabo vias tuas. / In iustificationib[us] tuis meditabor: / non obliviscar sermones tuos.
