Psalm 119:105-130
View Full Chapter105Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path.
106I have taken an oath and confirmed it, that I will follow your righteous laws.
107I have suffered much; preserve my life, LORD, according to your word.
108Accept, LORD, the willing praise of my mouth, and teach me your laws.
109Though I constantly take my life in my hands, I will not forget your law.
110The wicked have set a snare for me, but I have not strayed from your precepts.
111Your statutes are my heritage forever; they are the joy of my heart.
112My heart is set on keeping your decrees to the very end.
113I hate double-minded people, but I love your law.
114You are my refuge and my shield; I have put my hope in your word.
115Away from me, you evildoers, that I may keep the commands of my God!
116Sustain me, my God, according to your promise, and I will live; do not let my hopes be dashed.
117Uphold me, and I will be delivered; I will always have regard for your decrees.
118You reject all who stray from your decrees, for their delusions come to nothing.
119All the wicked of the earth you discard like dross; therefore I love your statutes.
120My flesh trembles in fear of you; I stand in awe of your laws. ע Ayin
121I have done what is righteous and just; do not leave me to my oppressors.
122Ensure your servant’s well-being; do not let the arrogant oppress me.
123My eyes fail, looking for your salvation, looking for your righteous promise.
124Deal with your servant according to your love and teach me your decrees.
125I am your servant; give me discernment that I may understand your statutes.
126It is time for you to act, LORD ; your law is being broken.
127Because I love your commands more than gold, more than pure gold,
128and because I consider all your precepts right, I hate every wrong path. פ Pe
129Your statutes are wonderful; therefore I obey them.
130The unfolding of your words gives light; it gives understanding to the simple.
