Psalms 119:100-114

¹⁰⁰I understand more than many old people do, because I obey ◄your principles of behavior/what you have declared that we should do►.

¹⁰¹I have avoided all evil behavior in order that I may obey ◄your words/what you have told us to do►.

¹⁰²I have not ◄turned away from/quit► obeying ◄your regulations/the rules that you have given to us►, because you have taught me while I have studied them.

¹⁰³When I read your words, they are like MET sweet things that I taste/eat, yes, they are even sweeter than honey.

¹⁰⁴Because I have learned ◄your principles of behavior/what you have declared that we should do►, I am able to understand many things; therefore, I hate all evil things that some people do.

¹⁰⁵Your words are like MET a lamp to guide me; they are like a light MET to show me the path that I should walk on.

¹⁰⁶I have solemnly promised, and I am solemnly promising it again, that I will always obey your ◄regulations/rules that you have given to us►, and they are all fair/just.

¹⁰⁷Yahweh, I am suffering very much; cause me to be strong/healthy again, as you have promised to do.

¹⁰⁸Yahweh, when I thank you while I pray, it is like MET a sacrifice to you; please accept it, and teach me your ◄regulations/rules that you have given to us►.

¹⁰⁹My enemies are often trying to kill me IDM, but I do not forget your laws.

¹¹⁰Wicked people have tried to seize me like a hunter tries to catch an animal with a trap MET, but I have not disobeyed ◄your principles of behavior/what you declared that we should do►.

¹¹¹◄Your requirements/What you have instructed us to do► are my possession forever; because of them PRS, I am joyful.

¹¹²I ◄have decided/am determined► IDM to obey ◄your statutes/what you have decreed that we should do► until the day that I die MTY.

¹¹³I hate people who are only partly committed to you, but I love your laws.

¹¹⁴You are like a place where I can hide from my enemies, and you are like a shield MET behind which I am protected from them, and I trust in your promises.
