109My life is continually in my hand; Yet do I not forget thy law.
110The wicked lay snares for me, Yet do I not go astray from thy precepts.
111I have made thine ordinances my possession for ever; For they are the joy of my heart.
112I have inclined my heart to perform thy statutes, Always,—even to the end.
113I hate impious men, And thy law I do love.
114Thou art my hiding-place and my shield; In thy word I put my trust!
115Depart from me, ye evil-doers! For I will keep the commandments of my God.
116Uphold me according to thy promise, that I may live; And let me not be ashamed of my hope!
117Do thou hold me up, and I shall be safe, And I will have respect to thy statutes continually!
118Thou castest off all who depart from thy laws; For their deceit is vain.
119Thou throwest away all the wicked of the earth, like dross; Therefore I love thine ordinances.
120My flesh trembleth through fear of thee, And I am afraid of thy judgments.
121I have done justice and equity; O leave me not to mine oppressors.
122Be surety for thy servant for good; Let not the proud oppress me!
123Mine eyes fail with looking for thy help, And for thy righteous promise.
124Deal with thy servant according to thy mercy, And teach me thy statutes!
125I am thy servant; give me understanding, That I may know thine ordinances!
126It is time for thee, O LORD! to act; For men have made void thy law.
127Therefore I love thy commandments above gold; Yea, above fine gold.
128Therefore I esteem all thy precepts concerning all things to be right; I hate every false way.
129Wonderful are thine ordinances; Therefore do I observe them.
130The communication of thy precepts giveth light; It giveth understanding to the simple.
