Psalms 119:126-131

¹²⁶Yahweh, now is the time for you to punish people because they have disobeyed your laws.

¹²⁷Truly, I love ◄your commands/what you have commanded► more than I love gold; I love them more than I love very pure gold.

¹²⁸So I conduct my life by ◄your principles of behavior/what you have declared that we should do►, and I hate all the evil things that some people do.

¹²⁹◄Your requirements are/All the things that you have instructed us to do are► wonderful, so I obey them with all my inner being.

¹³⁰When someone explains ◄your words/what you have said►, it is as though they are lighting a light; what they say causes even people who have not learned your laws to be wise.

¹³¹I eagerly desire to know ◄your commands/what you have commanded►, like SIM a dog that pants with its mouth open wanting to be fed.
