119You remove all the wicked of the earth like slag; therefore I love your solemn commands.
120My body trembles in fear of you, and I am afraid of your righteous decrees.
121I do what is just and right; do not abandon me to my oppressors.
122Guarantee the welfare of your servant; do not let the proud oppress me.
123My eyes grow tired as I wait for your salvation and for your righteous word.
124Show your servant your covenant faithfulness, and teach me your statutes.
125I am your servant; give me understanding so that I may know your covenant decrees.
126It is time for Yahweh to act, for people have broken your law.
127Truly I love your commandments more than gold, more than fine gold.
