129PE Your testimonies are wonderful, therefore my soul keeps them.
130The entrance of your words gives light. It gives understanding to the simple.
131I opened my mouth wide and panted, for I longed for your commandments.
132Turn to me, and have mercy on me, as you always do to those who love your name.
133Establish my footsteps in your word. Don’t let any iniquity have dominion over me.
134Redeem me from the oppression of man, so I will observe your precepts.
135Make your face shine on your servant. Teach me your statutes.
136Streams of tears run down my eyes, because they don’t observe your law.
137TZADHE You are righteous, Yahweh. Your judgments are upright.
138You have commanded your statutes in righteousness. They are fully trustworthy.
139My zeal wears me out, because my enemies ignore your words.
140Your promises have been thoroughly tested, and your servant loves them.
141I am small and despised. I don’t forget your precepts.
142Your righteousness is an everlasting righteousness. Your law is truth.
143Trouble and anguish have taken hold of me. Your commandments are my delight.
144Your testimonies are righteous forever. Give me understanding, that I may live.
145QOPH I have called with my whole heart. Answer me, Yahweh! I will keep your statutes.
146I have called to you. Save me! I will obey your statutes.
147I rise before dawn and cry for help. I put my hope in your words.
