118All who swerve from your statutes you spurn: their cunning is in vain.
119All the wicked of earth you count as dross, therefore I love your charges.
120My flesh, for fear of you, shudders, and I stand in awe of your judgements.
121Justice and right have I practised, do not leave me to my oppressors.
122Be your servant's surety for good, let not the proud oppress me.
123My eyes pine for your salvation, and for your righteous promise.
124Deal in your love with your servant, and teach me your statutes.
125Your servant am I; instruct me, that I may know your charges.
126It is time for the Lord to act: they have violated your law.
127Therefore I love your commandments above gold, above fine gold.
128So by all your precepts I guide me, and every false way I hate.
129Your decrees are wonderful, gladly I keep them.
130When your word is unfolded, light breaks; it imparts to the simple wisdom.
131With open mouth I pant with longing for your commandments.
132Turn to me with your favour, as is just to those who love you.
133Steady my steps by your word, so that sin have no power over me.
134Set me free from those who oppress me, and I shall observe your precepts.
135Shine with your face on your servant, and teach me your statutes.
136My eyes run down with rills of water, because your law is not kept.
137Righteous are you, O Lord, and right are your ordinances.
138The laws you has ordered are just, and trusty exceedingly.
139My jealousy has undone me, that my foes have forgotten your words.
140Your word has been tested well; and your servant loves it.
141I am little and held in contempt, but your precepts I have not forgotten.
142Just is your justice forever, and trusty is your law.
143Stress and strain are upon me, but your commandments are my delight.
144Right are your charges forever, instruct me that I may live.
145With my whole heart I cry; O answer me. I would keep your statutes, O Lord.
146I cry to you: O save me, and I will observe your charges.
147Ere the dawn I cry for your help: in your word do I hope.
148Awake I meet the night-watches, to muse upon your sayings.
149Hear my voice in your kindness: O Lord, by your judgements revive me.
150Near me are wicked tormentors, who are far from thoughts of your law;
151but near, too, are you, O Lord, and all your commandments are trusty.
152Long have I known from your charges that you have founded them for all time.
153Look on my misery, and rescue me; for I do not forget your law.
154Defend my cause and redeem me: revive me, as you have promised.
155Salvation is far from the wicked, for their mind is not in your statutes.
156Great is your pity, O Lord: Revive me, as you have ordained.
157My foes and tormentors are many, but I have not declined from your charges.
158I behold the traitors with loathing, for they do not observe your word.
159Behold how I love your precepts: revive me, O Lord!, in your kindness.
160The sum of your word is truth, all your laws are just and eternal.
161Princes have harassed me wantonly: but my heart stands in awe of your word.
162Over your word I rejoice as one who finds great spoil.
163Falsehood I hate and abhor, but your law do I love.
164Seven times a day do I praise you because of your righteous judgements.
165Right well do they fare who love your law: they go on their way without stumbling.
166I hope for your salvation; O Lord I do your commandments.
167I observe your charges: I love them greatly.
168I observe your precepts and charges: all my ways are before you.
169Let my cry come before you, O Lord: give me insight, as you have promised.
170Let my prayer enter into your presence: deliver me, as you have said.
171My lips shall be fountains of praise, that you teach me your statutes.
172My tongue shall sing of your word, for all your commandments are right.
173Let your hand be ready to help me, for your precepts have been my choice.
