Latin text

Memor fui nocte nominis tui, Domine, et custodivi legem tuam.
Haec facta est mihi, quia justificationes tuas exquisivi.
Portio mea, Domine, dixi custodire legem tuam.
Deprecatus sum faciem tuam in toto corde meo; miserere mei secundum eloquium tuum.
Cogitavi vias meas, et converti pedes meos in testimonia tua.
