Especially scriptures which were another psalm, like the Psalm of Nephi as found in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lds.org\/scriptures\/bofm\/2-ne\/4.15-35?lang=eng#p14\">II Nephi 4:15-35<\/a>). \u201cMy soul delighteth in the scriptures, And my heart pondereth them, And writeth them for the learning, And the profit of my children.\u201d \u201cBehold, my soul delighteth In the things of the Lord; And my heart pondereth continually, Upon the things which I have seen and heard.\u201d \u201cMy heart exclaimeth: O wretched man that I am! Yea, my heart sorroweth because of my flesh; My sol grieveth because of mine iniquities. I am encompassed about, Because of the temptations, And the sins which do so easily beset me.\u201d \u201cNevertheless, I know In whom I have trusted. My God hath been my support; He hath led me through mine afflictions.\u201d \u201cBehold, he hath heard My cry by day, And he hath given me knowledge By visions in the night-time.\u201d \u201cAnd why should I yield to sin, Because of my flesh? Yea, why should I give way to temptations, That the evil one have place in my heart.\u201d \u201cYea, I know that God Will give liberally to him that asketh. Yea, my God will give me, If I ask not amiss; Therefore, I will lift up My voice unto thee; Yea, I will cry unto thee, my God, The rock of my righteousness.\u201d These words could not have been made up by a 23-year-old farm boy in Upstate New York. These words are the words of someone who has lived a full life, who knows success and failure, who knows the Lord, who has had a full life. They are words which resonate deeply within my soul. I am so thankful for the scriptures, and especially for The Book of Mormon, and for passages like The Psalm of Nephi.<\/p>\n<p>\u2013[\/vc_column_text][nectar_btn size=&#8221;medium&#8221; open_new_tab=&#8221;true&#8221; button_style=&#8221;regular&#8221; button_color_2=&#8221;Accent-Color&#8221; color_override=&#8221;#5d90bf&#8221; icon_family=&#8221;none&#8221; text=&#8221;Song 358 &#8211; Psalm of Nephi&#8221; url=&#8221;https:\/\/www.psalmscountdown.net\/?p=14&#8243;][nectar_btn size=&#8221;medium&#8221; open_new_tab=&#8221;true&#8221; button_style=&#8221;regular&#8221; button_color_2=&#8221;Accent-Color&#8221; color_override=&#8221;#2677bf&#8221; icon_family=&#8221;none&#8221; text=&#8221;Text: HRN II Nephi 4:15-35 2nd Fret Moved to 4 line song verses in Kerogen Parking Lot 340 East Tollroad, Houston, TX, 19 Dec 2013 Put to music of 353 New Wood Floors, 2nd fret, Travis At 529 Barker Clodine #18304, Houston, TX 19 Dec 2013&#8243; url=&#8221;https:\/\/www.lds.org\/scriptures\/bofm\/2-ne\/4.15-35?lang=eng#p14&#8243;][vc_column_text]\n<!--[if lt IE 9]><script>document.createElement('audio');<\/script><![endif]-->\n<audio class=\"wp-audio-shortcode\" id=\"audio-4157-1\" preload=\"none\" style=\"width: 100%;\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"audio\/mpeg\" src=\"https:\/\/www.psalmscountdown.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Psalm_155_358_131219_Psalm_of_Nephi.m4a?_=1\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.psalmscountdown.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Psalm_155_358_131219_Psalm_of_Nephi.m4a\">https:\/\/www.psalmscountdown.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Psalm_155_358_131219_Psalm_of_Nephi.m4a<\/a><\/audio>\n[\/vc_column_text][nectar_btn size=&#8221;medium&#8221; open_new_tab=&#8221;true&#8221; button_style=&#8221;regular&#8221; button_color_2=&#8221;Extra-Color-1&#8243; color_override=&#8221;#92d662&#8243; icon_family=&#8221;none&#8221; url=&#8221;https:\/\/www.psalmscountdown.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Psalm_155_358_131219_Psalm_of_Nephi.m4a&#8221; text=&#8221;Download Audio File&#8221; margin_top=&#8221;10&#8243;][nectar_btn size=&#8221;medium&#8221; open_new_tab=&#8221;true&#8221; button_style=&#8221;regular&#8221; button_color_2=&#8221;Extra-Color-2&#8243; color_override=&#8221;#64d613&#8243; icon_family=&#8221;none&#8221; url=&#8221;https:\/\/www.psalmscountdown.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Psalm_155_358_131219_Psalm_of_Nephi.pdf&#8221; text=&#8221;Download Chords&#8221;][vc_column_text][\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row type=&#8221;in_container&#8221; full_screen_row_position=&#8221;middle&#8221; scene_position=&#8221;center&#8221; text_color=&#8221;dark&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; overlay_strength=&#8221;0.3&#8243;][vc_column column_padding=&#8221;no-extra-padding&#8221; column_padding_position=&#8221;all&#8221; background_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; background_hover_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; tablet_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; phone_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221;][vc_column_text]This page links to a Psalm already posted: Song 358 &#8211; Psalm of Nephi is referenced by&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[4],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.psalmscountdown.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4157"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.psalmscountdown.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.psalmscountdown.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.psalmscountdown.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.psalmscountdown.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=4157"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/www.psalmscountdown.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4157\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4196,"href":"https:\/\/www.psalmscountdown.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4157\/revisions\/4196"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.psalmscountdown.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=4157"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.psalmscountdown.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=4157"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.psalmscountdown.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=4157"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
