125I am thy servant; give me understanding, That I may know thy testimonies.
126It is time for Jehovah to work; For they 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; And I hate every false way.
129Thy testimonies are wonderful; Therefore doth my soul keep them.
130The opening of thy words giveth light; It giveth understanding unto the simple.
131I opened wide my mouth, and panted; For I longed for thy commandments.
132Turn thee unto me, and have mercy upon me, As thou usest to do unto those that love thy name.
133Establish my footsteps in thy word; And let not any iniquity have dominion over me.
134Redeem me from the oppression of man: So will I observe thy precepts.
135Make thy face to shine upon thy servant; And teach me thy statutes.
136Streams of water run down mine eyes, Because they observe not thy law.
137Righteous art thou, O Jehovah, And upright are thy judgments.
138Thou hast commanded thy testimonies in righteousness And very faithfulness.
139My zeal hath consumed me, Because mine adversaries have forgotten thy words.
140Thy word is very pure; Therefore thy servant loveth it.
141I am small and despised; Yet do I not forget thy precepts.
142Thy righteousness is an everlasting righteousness, And thy law is truth.
143Trouble and anguish have taken hold on me; Yet thy commandments are my delight.
144Thy testimonies are righteous for ever: Give me understanding, and I shall live.
145I have called with my whole heart; answer me, O Jehovah: I will keep thy statutes.
146I have called unto thee; save me, And I shall observe thy testimonies.
147I anticipated the dawning of the morning, and cried: I hoped in thy words.
148Mine eyes anticipated the night-watches, That I might meditate on thy word.
149Hear my voice according unto thy lovingkindness: Quicken me, O Jehovah, according to thine ordinances.
150They draw nigh that follow after wickedness; They are far from thy law.
151Thou art nigh, O Jehovah; And all thy commandments are truth.
152Of old have I known from thy testimonies, That thou hast founded them for ever.
153Consider mine affliction, and deliver me; For I do not forget thy law.
154Plead thou my cause, and redeem me: Quicken me according to thy word.
155Salvation is far from the wicked; For they seek not thy statutes.
156Great are thy tender mercies, O Jehovah: Quicken me according to thine ordinances.
157Many are my persecutors and mine adversaries; Yet have I not swerved from thy testimonies.
158I beheld the treacherous, and was grieved, Because they observe not thy word.
159Consider how I love thy precepts: Quicken me, O Jehovah, according to thy lovingkindness.
160The sum of thy word is truth; And every one of thy righteous ordinances endureth for ever.
161Princes have persecuted me without a cause; But my heart standeth in awe of thy words.
162I rejoice at thy word, As one that findeth great spoil.
163I hate and abhor falsehood; But thy law do I love.
164Seven times a day do I praise thee, Because of thy righteous ordinances.
165Great peace have they that love thy law; And they have no occasion of stumbling.
166I have hoped for thy salvation, O Jehovah, And have done thy commandments.
167My soul hath observed thy testimonies; And I love them exceedingly.
168I have observed thy precepts and thy testimonies; For all my ways are before thee.
169Let my cry come near before thee, O Jehovah: Give me understanding according to thy word.
170Let my supplication come before thee: Deliver me according to thy word.
171Let my lips utter praise; For thou teachest me thy statutes.
172Let my tongue sing of thy word; For all thy commandments are righteousness.
173Let thy hand be ready to help me; For I have chosen thy precepts.
174I have longed for thy salvation, O Jehovah; And thy law is my delight.
